If you would have bet me 100 dollars that Telly Savalas was not in the movie Annie, you’d be 100 dollars richer. I swear to Christ I thought he was in that movie. So when our new Ok, PANIC! topic was revealed to be Little Orphan Annie, all I new about the character was Daddy …

Doom
I’ve noticed recently a disturbing lack of supervillain art in my blog. Good villains make good comics. This is a trend I need to reverse. I also noticed an imbalance of DC characters vs. Marvel characters. Also a lack of indie characters, but whatever. I like all comics, and I abhor “fans” who are loyal …
Covered: Fantastic Four #73
I’ve been Covered. Again. Check it out, as well as all the other awesome covers too. But mostly mine.
Ok, PANIC!: Rob Liefeld
Shaft from Youngblood. At the time, I wanted to streamline, and sorta take a “realistic” approach to Liefeld characters. Now, I wanna go the opposite direction.
Can You Dig It?
I’m jus’ talkin’ ’bout Shaft. This week at Ok, PANIC! we’re celebrating the life and work of Rob Liefeld. I have a feeling that we’re doing this ironically. I’m not a fan of ironic enjoyment of anything, but it is incredibly hard to like Liefeld on any level other than irony. But I am going …
Doop

Ok, PANIC!: Richie Rich
The first Ok, PANIC!. I stole this joke from The Simpsons. Done entirely in Adobe Illustrator.
Ok, PANIC!
2021 Update: Ok, PANIC! is long dead, my contributions to it long before that. It was a stupid experiment that I tolerated a lot longer than I should have. No offense to the other artists who contributed. The ones I was directly involved with anyway. I have re-homed my Ok, PANIC! artwork elsewhere on the …
Charlton Chew
Much like my opinion of Jack Kirby, I’ve spent most of my comic reading career disliking Steve Ditko. Over the past few years I’ve gotten past the things that I disliked – which were all aesthetic issues – and realized the genius of both of those creators embedded in their art. It also doesn’t hurt …
Gladiator
Cool Dave Cockrum design, pretty cool twist on the Superman archetype. Cool X-Men sometime villain. Bad drawing from a few years ago.
