Tomahawk!


From The Line It Is Drawn, Week 320:
Shocking comic book returns! Pick a comic book character who hasn’t appeared in comics in a few years, whether they’re dead or alive, whichever.
Twitter followers filemyrph suggested: DC's Tomahawk.  I tried to capture the weirdness of Tomahawk, a colonial-era frontiersman who battled dinosaurs, robots, aliens and such in the wildness of the American frontier.  Sounds amazing.

Happy Valentine's Day, Nina!

With amounts of hearts so rife.

Squid-Man Symbol




I worked out a better chest symbol for Squid-Man a couple years ago and it's been sitting as a draft behind the scenes here at the blog since then.  For good measure, I added a new drawing of Squid-Man, working out a color scheme for him.

Rainbow Batman


From The Line It Is Drawn, Week 317:
We could use some happy thoughts right now, so, inspired by the work of Lisa Frank, the theme is have superheroes hanging out with rainbows and/or unicorns and/or pandas and/or dolphins and/or kittens and/or puppies. My wife will also give out valueless bonus points to anyone who draws their piece in the style of Lisa Frank.
Twitter followers filemyrph suggested: Rainbow Batman. The world needs more Rainbow Batman. And unicorn/mermaid hybrids that I call mermicorns. And snacks.

In honor of the U.S. Presidential Election this Tuesday, pick a comic character and our artists will show them reacting to the new President next Friday!
Twitter followers LordAndrew and originaldayfan suggested: Uatu, the Watcher. Even he didn't see the Trump win coming.  Sigh.
