diggin' deep... pop up villains!

okay, more from the file drawer... this time it's art for a marvel's bad guys pop up book (that, to the best of my knowledge, never came out)... back before i was getting regular comics work, some folks at marvel's creative services dept took pity on me and got me some of my first professional work (pogs, coloring books, christmas ties, you name it)...

pretty straightforward with each picture to be broken down into three levels of "pop"... and the only time i've ever gotten to draw most of these guys (although i just found out one of the bad guys on one of the pages shows up in captain america and the korvac saga)

some of it holds up (dormammu), most of its wonky, but i had fun doing it... (much like most of my stuff)

looking at a lot of this older stuff, i wonder how i'd tackle it, 15 years later...

(more) diggin' deep... vertigo style.

finally getting back on track with work after the last few weeks of upheaval around here (has it been only two weeks since cat was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes? wow... but she's been handling it great, back in the swing of things in no time... and we're doing okay trying to keep her on schedule and enjoying life like an almost 4 year old should... and the boy's been a GREAT big brother to her through it all )

since i don't have any captain america and the korvac saga stuff okayed to show yet, i figure it's time to post some old stuff again...

trying to break in WAY back in '95, i was heavy into some of the vertigo stuff... funny how i went from sample stuff like this, to getting a job on one of dc's most kid friendly books, impulse (and then years of animated style books)...

more death/books of magic type samples coming next...
