Draw!

Six Gun Sally! It's my pet project that will be coming out from Image Comics one fine day! Can't wait to work on it some more! By the way, a friend of mine, Rich Faber is running a little contest at his blog! Check it out!

How Dare You!

...I mean really! How could you? Zoom is such a great comic book hero, why on Earth would you attack him and his team of daring heroes? It simply doesn't make sense to me.

A while back I did some mock covers for a Tim Allen movie called... ZOOM! They needed that "almost Kirby" Marvel feel the late Seventies and early Eighties had. Many artists were attempting to be Kirby. So instead of swiping Kirby I decided to do sort of that crappy Pseudo-Kirby thing that seemed to personify a lot of that period. It's like people would manage to capture one aspect of Jack Kirby and nothing else. Throw that wiggle line in there and that should be good enough. Right...? Not really, eh? I thought so. Well, that was the whole point to this cover.

Ahoy!

So this morning Ross Ritchie from BOOM gave me the beat down... "Your cover isn't cutting it." [ well, actually he was as nice as he could be about it, in truth ]

You know what? I kinda agreed. Even before I sent it, I wasn't thrilled with it [ see last post ]. It's good in theory. Standing on the treasure map with the big 'X marks the spot' thing. But as Ron Garney mentioned to me - it' s more Captain Morgan than Pirates of the Caribbean. So... I banged this out today instead. I couldn't bring myself to revisit the first one again. Like most artists, doing revisions is just about the most gut wrenching experience.

So out with the old and in with the new! Check out the comic book review at the infamous Comic Book Resources website!
