Memorial Day already?


Wow, the year is racing by.  Of course various things help it along. Like old age.  I used to think older people were crazy when they said 'it goes faster the older you get'.  Well Legionnaires, believe me, it is so true!  I just can't believe how fast a month flies by, then the year follows right after that.

So everyone have a great Memorial Day weekend. And be safe out there.

Also a couple of pieces for you to hopefully enjoy.



Stay tuned Loyal Legionnaires!

rigor mortis has not set in yet!!!

Wow, I can't believe it has been so long since I posted an update. Again I hate posting just to update unless I have something good to show off.

So I don't have much, I finally finished inking this page from 'number 13' ....and jeez it is only page 2.  But anyway, enjoy it in all its blackline glory before i slop it up with bad coloring.



Also been working on a special piece for someone out there in the Legion.  Won't say much about it yet as i am still playing around with the design some.  But it is a piece that i plan to do my best on.  I think most fans of sword and sorcery will recognize the cliches in the piece.....girl captive, check.....barbarian, check.....a monster or too, check.....a temple setting, check.....anyway it will be fun to finish up.
Here is a rough layout of it....


Also forgive me if I pump the Avengers movie......jeez I felt like a kid again watching that film.  The director/writer hit all the great things about early Marvel comics that I liked about it..... i won't spoil anything here, just go see this movie, get a big bucket of popcorn and maybe a small coke as you don't want to get up to go pee during this movie as there is no dull parts to miss.  Sure there are things i wish had changed....like Cap's suit....man what is with that thing, but i got over it.  But, i actually laughed until i had to wipe my eyes at a couple of funny parts.....and probably only funny to old farts like me that enjoyed the feeling of the early comics.....because these are the characters i grew up with, not the grim brooding grim and gritty characters i don't recognize in the comics anymore. Enjoy the movie, Legionnaires. it is fun!!!!
