Caped Crusader rescues me from Boredom




My latest job assignment is to come up with football related wallpapers, and I couldn't possibly be more bored and uninterested in it, luckily for me I was able to break up this up with some Batman sketches on the sly. I also want to make up for that intentionally bad Captin" America I did a few months back. I really do enjoy superhero comics, they just have to be drawn with competence and skill. I'd like to someday work on a mainstream comic superhero,. People always ask me, what character would you do a book for if DC or Marvel gave you your druthers. And I always say, Batman and Spider-man, and yeah I know these are the obvious choices and they 've been done to death, but they're is so much potential with Batman, the rouges gallery has so many good villains to choose from, and even if I did get put on something like Green Arrow, I'd probably have him fight a Batman villain. I'd probably use some under used character like killer Croc and instead of making him some kinda lizard man, I'd make him a guy who was severely deformed in an accident when he was a kid and has really bad egsima. A friend of mine was really obsessed with the Adam West
Batman for a while and would fill his sketch book up with drawing of West and Burt Ward as Robin. I figured I'd give it a go, I always thought West looked kind of cross-eyed whenever he had the cowl on.

breakin' promises

I know I said I wouldn't post anything else from work, but... these were just too hard to resist. I had to come up with some Halloween content and I didn't want to do the usual cardboard cut out witches and bats you see taped up in elementary school class rooms. I was thinking heavy metal album art, of course for this job everything has to be toned down and homogenized, but these were a helluva lot of fun to draw, Also got to do some Dia de los Muertos stuff too,
Enjoy.

Finished Aqualeung Pin-up

A Week Well Spent

Last week I spent in Poland, Maine visiting my fiend Matt Berier, he is an awesome cartoonist and was gracious enough to invite my girlfriend, Hilary and our friend Emily and I to his family's cabin right on a pristine lake. We had an amazing time, And to proved that it really existed, here are some pictures that Emily, who just so happens to be a very talented professional photographer, took. Unfortunately, despite the fact that there is a healthy moose population in Maine, we did not see a single moose, even though we did see some really great loons when swimming on the lake. While swimming at night, I imagined a Giant Moose-god rising from the water in all his mighty terror (mind you moose are highly aggressive and very dangerous so if you do see one, stay away, and don't hit them with your car, you will die) and Matt being the most daring swimmer and furthest from the shore would be the first to get trampled/squished?..uhh gored? (how would a moose kill you?) Anyway swimming in cold lake water at midnight gave way to these thoughts and hallucinations and so here's the drawing I stared in the hotel room Hilary, Emily and I had to stay in because the van we were driving tore its fan belt and the car over heated and.. well I'll go into more detail about that adventure some other time. Many thanks to Matt for his hospitality and taking us out on his boat and everything, See Matt's blog for lots more details and pictures.
