1468. Ambush Bug
Margaret Cross was a big supporter of the Sketch-a-day in the early days of the 1st year I attempted it, and I’ll never forget that. I offered her a request, and she issued a challenge. Ambush Bug in a Mike Mignola-esque style. Accepted. Achieved? Nope. Now I’m just thinking about how Keith Giffen – creator …
1467. Usagi Yojimbo
I wanted to try a “realistic” approach to Usagi here. So, this is heavily referenced from a picture of a bunny. This was requested by Ivan Martin. I don’t know him, but he has pretty much been the only person that keeps my artist page on Facebook afloat, and for that he deserves a request. …

This was requested by Chris Jones, whom I’ve known for a while. He is fond of saying that my work “rules …

1464. Captain Comet
Here we are, the final week of the Sketch-a-Day! Not a theme week, but just asking individuals who have been friends and cheerleaders for one-off requests. Today is Mike Adams, who requested Captain Comet – a character I was only vaguely aware of. He appeared in the Secret Society of Supervillains in the late 70s, …
1462. The Secret
I’m gonna be honest here: I have only read 1 issue of the original Young Justice comic. The first issue. I hated it so much that I tore it up and threw it away. So basically, I have no idea who this character is. Also, today is the 4th anniversary of when I began Sketch-a-Day …
