016 – Maxwell Smart

016 – Maxwell Smart

Even before I started posting everyday, I had been watching the show Get Smart on DVD as I draw. I recently started on Season 2. I still don’t particularly like the show, or find it all that funny, but I find it really pleasant to have on while I work. I also noticed, while looking …

015 – Aztek

Today is my friend Joe Grunenwald’s birthday. I’ve known Joe for over 10 years or so. We worked together briefly at Maverick’s, our local comic shop. He was still in high school, and I was otherwise unemployed, recently fired from my first “career” job out of art school. I always liked Joe, but for whatever …

013 – Rollins Power Sauce

Henry Rollins essentially saved my life. 10 years ago or so, my girlfriend at the time dumped me and I was pretty sure there was no point to anything anymore. My friends all did their best to make sure I stayed busy and helped keep my mind off the situation, but I had to be …

Ok, PANIC!: Romance Comics

I put together this parody comic cover-recreation for the “Romance Comics” topic. With great apologies to Don Heck. Less so to Vince Colleta. The big swinger may or may not reflect my own personal opinions of fashion. Original cover below. You can even check out the lead story at this blog!

012 – Here there be Dragons

Part of the whole daily thing is that I want to try to do different things with the sketches/art. Whether I fail or not is inconsequential. By the way, I chalk this up as a failure. Anyhow, Savage Dragon. When Image Comics first started, Erik Larsen’s Savage Dragon quickly became my favorite out of the …

Post-it note sketch done in ball-point pen. I think it’s supposed to be Mister Miracle. Maybe. It wasn’t my initial intention. Maybe.

010 – Prince Namor on the tube

Tried to do something loose with pen and marker, added the color in Photoshop. As a bonus, I’ve added another Namor drawing I did a few years back. I drew this one drawing night to make my friend laugh, and it led to a short-lived series of sketches of “Superheroes if they looked more like …

009 – Eradicator

009 – Eradicator

This drawing was inspired by Dennis Culver. On his blog, he’s been redesigning DC characters to fit into the whole “Batman, Inc.” thing. They are fantastic designs and ideas (seriously, DC Comics, you need to wake up and do a Wally West as Batman of Keystone series. NOW.). Anyhow, I just wanted to play in …

008 – Ant-Man

Just a doodle I made during work on a Post-It when my computer was tied up with work stuff. Find. Replace. Wait. Repeat. I have no idea what a flying ant is supposed to look like.
