Prince of Darkness


This is a sketch I did when thinking about a short comic I intend to do, Elvis Lives, where Elvis returns as a zombie and tears through raceland but is eventually stopped by a vampiric Ozzy Osbourne.

Brainiac Turtle


A couple of pencil sketches I did of my favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Donatello. I actually grew up liking Leonardo best, but upon reaching my teens I began to see it as shallow in only liking a character for his weapons, which is exactly what I did, so I ended up liking the brainy one the best.

Superhero Manager



This was a micron pen sketch I did based on a comic concept I had, called Lucius Kirby: Superhero Manager, about this sleazy manager who set up superhero fights, inflated their reputations, that sort of thing. The other guy in the picture is my chief speedster El Rayo, spanish for Thunderbolt.

Funky Flash


Wow, that was a long gap in updates. Anyway, The Flash is one of my favorite superheroes, and a while ago I had an idea for a different take on his costume, so I whipped up this sort of disco-inspired thing. I think I'm most satisfied with his hair and glasses.

Howard's Heroes


This sketch was based on an issue of Marvel's What If series, one if the issues had the title "What If Howard the Duck had formed his own Team?" and the idea intrigued me enough to sketch this out. So I put a team together consisting of Howard the Duck, Deadpool, Man-Thing and just to have a complete wild card in there, a reformed Absorbing Man who happens to be one of my favorite Marvel characters.

Bat od Many Worlds



Did a few alternate Batmans the other day, just on a whim, of different Elseworld stories that might be interesting to do. The first one, The Dark Knight, while implausible, is still an interesting idea, Batman as a jedi knight in Star Wars. Nightstalker presents Batman as a ninja in feudal japan, which isnt that farfetched, considering his training, and finally The Bat shows Batman as a pulp hero in the styles of The Shadow and The Clock.

Coal Turtle


I got a set of charcoal supplies a while back and have been trying them out with different sketches, this being one of the earliest ones, of Leonardo from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Not exactly super detailed or anything, but considering my small experience with charcoal, I think it looks alright.
