Li'l Superheroes

From The Line It Is Drawn week 118:

Based on a suggestion from somebody (repeated by Axel Medellin), pick a comic book character that you’d like to see a “Lil’” version of (like Lil’ Archie, Hellboy Jr. or all of those Skottie Young covers)

Suggested via Twitter by both JaronHataway and therealAstrozac : Li’l Darkseid and the New Gods.  I also spotted a MODOK suggestion from Kholdstare21 and did that as well!

Check the top link above to check out other great pieces from the other talented Liners.

Galactus And His MODOKed Heralds Shoot Some Pool

From The Line It Is Drawn: Week 132 :

In honor of MODOK March Madness, tweet us ideas for comic book characters that you’d like to see given the MODOK treatment!

 I handle "Galactus shooting pool with all his heralds as Modok billiard balls! Silver Surfer would be the cue ball of course" as suggested by Howlermouse.

Brian was kind enough to suggest a March MODOK Madness week and the Liners hit it out of the park!
