Hellboy and Jack B. Quick

Mike Mignola and I were guests at a terrific convention in Birmingham, England last year and we were asked to do this piece for their program book and charity auction. Mike pencilled the Hellboy figure and sent the board to me so that I could draw Jack and ink the whole thing.

That big empty space in the lower right bothered me so I added another contraption to fill it up.

Most people didn't even realize that I'd inked the Hellboy figure. See, I don't always redraw everything!

Some of you may know that I was scheduled to draw an Adam Strange mini-series back in the late 80's, but I couldn't get past the one edict from DC editorial:  "Give him a new costume."

I really liked the original costume and no matter how hard I tried to go in a different direction it seemed pointless.  Who cares about Adam Strange if he's not wearing that cool space suit?

New original art

Be sure to check out the "Original Art" link to the right.  I've finally put up some pages from the Batman Confidential series I did with Garcia-Lopez.  Once you get to the art page, there's an email link at the bottom if you're interested in buying any of the pages.

I also have the cover art for Batman Confidential #28 on eBay this week.  You can find it here.

Sorry I've been away.  I didn't lose interest in the blog (yet) but the logic board on my Mac died so I was mostly off line for a few days.  Here's something to tide you over until I can get caught up on work.

I'll post page one tomorrow.
