If This Be... March MODOK Madness 2010!

Here's the post I put up over at the March MODOK Madness! blog, announcing that we are again taking submissions for the month of March, our third year in a row! I've been busy trying to get ahead by working on a full length comic book featuring MODOK the past few weeks and have a lot on my plate with it, and work and life in general. So, this upcoming month you will probably be seeing a lot of mirrored posts from the work I'm producing for MMM.

Hey All!

Just thought I'd do a late February post to announce that indeed we are continuing the annual madness of celebrating all things MODOK! And why not? The big guy deserves it. So, all during the merry month of March, your bustling, belligerent, blog beekeepers (Pedro and myself) are hosting hordes of gorgeous, graphic depictions of everyone's main mental organism! Be sure to join us next maniacal Monday for the bombastic beginning of our third time around!

Interested in joining in the fun? Well, dust off your devious drawing devices, create some work and submit it to the email address found in the column to the right, and we'll put your potent and powerfully produced pictures on up the blog! Everyone is welcome!

Hope to see you come back to peruse punctiliously the pile of pretty pieces for what's sure to be a great new year of March MODOK Madness! Huzzah!

Inking The King: Hawkman

I found a sweet image of DC's Hawkman that Jack Kirby pencilled as a presentation piece for an unrealized Hawkman cartoon. I figured I'd give inking and coloring it a go and had some fun with it. Below is the inked image, done digitally, and at the bottom, Jack Kirby's original pencilled drawing found on the internet.




I loves me some Jack Kirby, so I hope to try and find more to ink, since my inking skills need improvement as well. I might try embellishing a Black Bolt drawing he did next, and whatever else I can find... Stay tuned.

Sail On, Brother

I'm working on this nautical tattoo themed poster for my brother as he turns 36 today and enjoys the sailing. He's more of a no socks and dark and stormy sailor type guy instead of a pegleg and belly full o' grog type, but hopefully the idea gets through. Couldn't finish the piece in time, but here's a sneak peak. I hope to post the finished article and give you the details on the meaning of each element in the poster. But for now, happy birthday, Quinn!

Kitties And Robots

Kitties and Robots. Together at last. I was inspired by this, a game which I was a part of and still would like to see the original "ROBOTS EAT CATS" drawing on a t-shirt.
