Cool Dave Cockrum design, pretty cool twist on the Superman archetype. Cool X-Men sometime villain. Bad drawing from a few years ago.

Fanboy Boner!
Yup. The ultimate fanboy wetdream. It’s the Wolverine of G.I. Joe versus the Snake-Eyes of the X-Men! Brought about by a desire to break out of a drawing slump, and recently watching G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra and being shocked – SHOCKED! – by how much I enjoyed it.
Shadow of the Colossus
Drawn a few years ago in pencil, finished in Adobe Illustrator. There are some things I’d like to go back and tweak, but can’t find the original AI file. Colossus was always one of my favorite X-Men characters when I was growing up, probably third after Nightcrawler and Wolverine.
X-Patrol
When Marvel & DC teamed up to do the Amalgam Comics experiment, they did an X-Patrol comic (X-Men & Doom Patrol). It wasn’t that great.

Work Doodles
More work doodles. Gel pens are fun.

X-Men First Class
Except I’m not Roger Cruz! It’s good to be me.
To me, my zay-men
Y’know what I hate most about the X-Men movies and cartoons? X-Avier. X-Avier? What the fuck is wrong with everyone? It’s pronounced Zavier, folks! Zavier! Grr! I have a secret shame, and that shame is that I love The X-Men. It’s the comic that turned me into a hardcore geek. Admittedly, up until Grant Morrison …
Magneto
Wanted to try a more traditional pen and ink illustrative style, with shadows and highlights, midtones, etc. Took a long time, especially for an impatient spastic like me. I did a lot of this while watching The Departed. Good film. Don’t know why it took so long to watch it. I even really liked Leonardo …
