Before continuing, and to get the best experience out of my WordPress site, I suggest switching from mobile to tablet or desktop view. It shows the proper alignment of graphics and makes the text easier to read.
The other night I was scanning my collection for more of my comics from Image. Proof #1 caught my attention with the Bigfoot on the cover. It’s safe to say I enjoy all things to do with cryptids and the cover reads “If you believe in monsters, you need Proof.” I did a little research online and found that it was inspired by the X-Files, another favorite of mine.

- Art & Colors–Riley Rossmo
- Additional Colors–Tyler Jenkins
It ran for 33 issues after being released in October 2007. I found the art enjoyable. I loved how the shadows paired with the scratchy outlines. It gave every panel great visuals. Riley Rossmo delivers excellence with every piece he produces. Alexander Grecian’s website says that a Proof compendium is coming out this year. It seems like several exciting things are going on for this series. My online dive into the series led me to an article saying that a TV show is in the works.
Image Comics’ ‘Proof’ Series In The Works At Fox From Cory Goodman, Jeremy Lott & Westbrook Studios
John “Proof” Prufrock and his new partner Ginger Brown are tasked with investigating where a couple has gone missing. A secret organization called The Lodge informs them it’s rumored to be the work of a Chupacabra. John is a Bigfoot himself and you get a fun perspective of his life early in the story. There is a peak into both of their lore and it makes me anxious to fill in my collection so I can read the rest.
With April less than two weeks away, I also wanted to bring attention to Free Comic Book Day. Depending on where you live, you can head to your local comic book store on May 3, 2025, to grab your freebies. Be sure to show support to small businesses and purchase something to add to your treasures.
A few questions for my readers.
- Did you do Free Comic Book Day last year?
- Do you believe in cryptids?
- Are there any other series you would like to see made into a TV show?
Sharing these recommendations is a process I love learning more about. I appreciate all the support, tips, and everything in between. I will be making fun and engaging updates to all my social platforms this year. If you would like to follow along, please subscribe below.
