This may be the one character I draw this month that I actively hate. Classic Nick Fury is awesome. Even Ultimate Nick Fury is awesome. Samuel L. Jackson as Movie Nick Fury is double plus awesome (I just listened to the 1984 audiobook). But holy crap is Nick Fury, Jr. a turd and a half. …

369. Black Panther
I’ve talked about my weird admiration of Black Panther before, I think. This also makes the 6th time I’ve drawn him for the blog. Anyhoo. If Marvel is reading, when you make the movie: A) Wakanda is a high-tech utopia & the most advanced civilization on Earth. No straw huts, loincloths or spears, please. B) …
367. War Machine
James “Rhodey” Rhodes. I just read his wikipedia page and now my head and heart hurt. Anyway, I think he’s now the Iron Patriot in the comics as well as the movies, but to me, he’ll always be War Machine. Mostly because that is also the name of the last good KISS song.

I was initially going to include black supervillains, but much like Marvel and DC, I am too afraid to present …
349. Sandman

333. Sabretooth
I’ve never been a huge fan of any of Sabretooth’s costumes. I suppose when I saw the Jim Lee redesign in the early 90s, I glommed to that. So when I got the request to draw Sabretooth for the blog, I was prepared to draw that version. But doing a quick reference scan, I saw …
321. Black Bolt
Need to draw more Inhumans better.
Stingray
My latest and penultimate piece for The Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe Reduxe Edition is now up. I have drawn Stingray once before, but this time, I decided to play up the Iron Man aspect of the fact that the character is basically an undersea Iron Man. Even though I always prefer a clean, …
301. Ms. Marvel
The original Ms. Marvel says “Happy Thankgsiving”. Or whatever.
