TARZAN by CHARLTON comics

I waited for the right time to pounce. I finally saw a copy of TARZAN number one by Charlton comics on E-bay today...I ordered it to add to my coolection of awesomeness! 10 bucks for issues 1 , 2 and 3 !!! art by Sam Glanzman...( However the cover to this one is by someone other than Sam...I'll need to wait until I get the comic so I can read the name more clearly...should be here by Wednesday. WooHoo!

Speaking of TARZAN ...look at this toy I discovered on the web while searching the jungles of the internet. Box art by JACK " KING" KIRBY!

AIM comics " The Brutal Blade of Bruno the Bandit "

TRIBUTE

Today is Sunday September 11th 2011. There are over 1000 different patriotic comic book covers that one can use as a favorite in recognition of the importance of today. I chose this one by JERRY ORDWAY. It's simple , perfect and beautiful. Never forget.

HERCULES vs

Another of my HERC mash ups. This time using the conflicting styles of Jack Kirby and Sam Glanzman. Special thanks to Mike Dominic for color art and lettering.

HERCULES vs TARZAN

Here is the finished piece. Thanks to Cromsblood from over at CROM the Ultimate CONAN fan blog for his assistance...looks great Blood thank you!

( The general idea behind this cover and the CONAN cover is that HERC has been stripped of his strength and cast out by his pops into strange unknown lands so a battle with TARZAN or CONAN could mean his demise.)

Another mock cover in the works...

this here is the next cover I got going on. Hope your diggin' it...Thanks to CROMSBLOOD from CROM the ultimate CONAN fan blog for color art and text. He's doing a geat job...

CONAN vs HERCULES ~ in COLOR!

I was inspired recently to whip up an homage to Jack Kirby....being that Charles R. Rutledge from " Singular points " and I were mentioning that Jack Kirby never really had any CONAN material out there. So I pulled a Rich Buckler/Ron Frenz and swiped/borrowed a couple of poses to draw up this HOMAGE to CONAN and KIRBY in honor of his Birthday recently Aug 28.
I was thinking after I drew it...man this needs some color and thought to myself " Hmm I've been working on a side project with Cromsblood...but he has a child on the way and he's very busy as of late. Then I remembered the Rudy Nebres " One minute later " piece from several posts back and how Mike Dominic from AIM comics producers of " The Brutal blade of BRUNO the BANDIT " colored in the artwork the very next day...it was an internet smash and can be found in several places...( Folks that was Mike Dominic who colored that in ) So I asked "DOM" if he would not mind doing this fun little side job for me. Sure enough the very next day VOILA!
I could not be prouder..thank you "DOM" You did a great job coloring and adding text to my piece! You are a great artist! I hope you folks out there like it. I'm very proud.

By the by,,,I do not really like the word SWIPE...I rather prefer REFERENCE.
