Speed


I am a fan of The Flash in concept and design. He is a character, much like The X-Men that I am always interested in reading, but usually always disappointed in. More so now that Barry Allen is back. I can’t give a flying fuck. Wally West is The Flash to me. And yeah, he’s still around, he’s still called Flash, but it’s not the same, and I don’t care that he’s wearing the John Wesley Shipp costume. Barry taints all.

I did draw Wally here wearing the John Wesley Shipp costume, but I also made it shiny like Mike Wieringo did when he was drawing the character. I always loved that, and his whole take on the book and characters. Wieringo was a fantastic artist, and it’s still devastating that he’s gone.

As has been pointed out to me, I seem to gravitate toward “evil opposites” for favorite villains, and I have always loved Professor Zoom/Reverse Flash. No real reason for it. Even though he did not specifically ask for it, the drawing is dedicated to Joe G.

Hellboy Postcard!


My pal Jason went to Canada last week and attended the Toronto Comic and Art Festival (or whatever). He sent me this bitchin’ Hellboy postcard! I love Hellboy!

I still don’t know if Jason is back yet, or even alive. Oh well.

Oh, and there was some dumb crap on the back too.

Ok, PANIC!: Monster Mash-Up


The topic was a mash-up between cartoon characters and horror, and so Garfulu was born.

Once a Man


Favorite cartoon villain as a kid. Can’t say I hated him in the live-action movie, because he was barely in it. And I actually liked the movie. Excited for the animated movie to be coming out on blu-ray. Boom.

This week on Gutter Trash: Oldboy and Episodes 1 through 3 of our live SPACE recordings.

Scorpion


Still trying to draw more Marvel characters and more villains. Spider-Man has one of the best rogues galleries, second only to Batman. Flash comes a close third. Not a fan of Venorpion. Not really a fan of Scorpion either, but it’s a classic look.

Ok, PANIC!: Little Orphan Annie


Just wanted to do a weird. I should re-draw this one, amp the weird.

Telly


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 Warbucks – as played by Telly Savalas. In my head. Apparently that isn’t so, and that made this drawing pointless to the topic. So here we go, one of my few attempts at a caricature of a (formerly) living person, in his most famous role (since apparently he never played Daddy Warbucks), Kojak! Who loves you, indeed?

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 to one company and badmouth another simply due to – I dunno – being simple minded idiot asshole fuckshits. I really really hate comic book fans. You know who you are, assfucks.

Anyway, Doom.

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.
