Y U NO SEND ANY MODOKS?

Straight Outta Gotham

From week 178, the theme was:

Every fifty installments, this will be the theme! Mash-up a comic book character and a famous music album cover!

Avid Twitter follower, BigMike20X6 suggested: Batman, Ace, and the Batmobile on the cover of Weird Al Yankovic’s Straight Outta Lynwood.  I had to oblige and like how the piece came out, even though I ran out of time for a color treatment.

Speaking of running out of time, here's a bonus piece.

I had remembered doing this suggestion for Week 128 and upon investigating the CSBG blog's archives, I noticed it was not present with the other submissions.  I had finished the drawing, most probably too late to submit to the Line that week.  Another Big Mike suggestion: Nextwave on They Might Be Giants’ NO! album.  Better late than never.

Check out the other great pieces from Week 128 and Week 178.

Power Man And Iron Fist 8-bit

From week 176, the theme was:

Here’s a good one we haven’t done in quite a while (and in fact, I don’t think I’ve ever phrased it exactly like this before) – mash-up comic book characters with notable video games!

Twitter follower, Thiefofhearts suggested: Luke Cage and Iron Fist in Double Dragon

Courtesy of a suggestion from our own Daniel Cox, mash-up and/or team-up comic book characters with Hanna-Barbera characters! Here is a list of Hanna-Barbera characters if you’re unfamiliar which cartoons they did.

Twitter follower, Ecovore suggested: Kraven hunts Yogi Bear.

Happy Valentine's Slay!!!

From week 177, the theme was:

For Valentine’s Day, come up with some interesting love connections! Pair two comic characters up for a new romance!

Twitter follower, therealAstrozac suggested: Groo and Red Sonja.  Drawing this has rekindled my love for Groo the Wanderer and Sergio Aragonés' work.  Ah, love.  Fitting.

She-Doop

From week 174, the theme was:

In honor of Matt Fraction’s upcoming gender-swapped take on the Odyssey, switch the genders on a comic book character! Hellgirl, Alan and Markie, Scotia Pilgrim, etc.!

Twitter follower, OwenJOR suggested: Doop (somehow).  I was going for a Mike Allred look for this one.  I'm a big fan of his clean, thick inked lines and look forward to his upcoming Silver Surfer project.
