WildC.A.T.S. 25, page 14 with Dave Johnson

Here's another page where the inks don't look much like the pencils but at least this one was planned that way from the start.  Alan Moore script, Dave Johnson layouts, John Nyberg background inks and my finishes.  I don't know if you can see it in the pencils, but Dave drew a Bart Simpson head on the guy in the bottom panel.

  1. It's interesting to see how much you brought to this page. The best part is the grumpy expression on the old man in the car window. I love the disapproving glare!

  2. I agree with Dav, the guy in the car is awesome. I love how you 'Nowlan-ized' the art, seemingly little touches, like the shading of the car tire, adds so much to the overall beauty of the page.

  4. Mr Nowlan, were those pencils considered to be "finished"?

  5. I don't remember... but they were probably considered layouts, not finished pencils.
