Merv Pumpkinhead inks

Pencils by the redoubtable Mark Buckingham for last year's House of Mystery Halloween special. I haven't grown any pumpkins in the back yard for a few years but I used to love watching them grow this time of year. My wife and mother-in-law make some amazing pies. Maybe that's why I rarely turn down a Merv assignment.

Merv Pumpkinhead cover painting

From 2000. This was the first of two covers I did that month with a nearly identical layout, inspired by a classic James Bond pose.  The second can be seen here.  This one was painted with acrylics on a sheet of gessoed masonite.  Sorry for the jump from thumbnail to finished painting.  I don't seem to have copies of the intermediate steps.  I also designed the title on this one.

Well, since yesterday's art asked a question, I probably shouldn't keep you waiting for the answer.  

I neglected to mention that this was written by Bill Willingham and lettered by Todd Klein.
