More of Dirk’s comic work includes the official graphic novel adaptation of the classic lost horror film LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT (with the estate of Lon Chaney), RSVP: E.S.P. (with New York Times #1 bestselling author Josh Malerman), BUTTS IN SEATS: THE TONY SCHIAVONE STORY (a #1 Best-Selling Graphic Novel on Amazon), HOMESTEAD, (Ringo Award Finalist for Best Original Graphic Novel in 2025), BURIED BUT NOT DEAD (Ringo Award finalist for Best Original Graphic Novel in 2021), TWIZTID HAUNTED HIGH-ONS (Ringo Award finalist for Best Humor Comic in 2020 and 2022), HOPE, THE ADVENTURES OF CTHULHU JR.
