A New Comic Series...?

I'm test-driving this to see how it works, but so far it's a blast to make and it's not as intimidating as the comics I've made in the past. I still think it's funny, and the friends I've shown it to seem to have enjoyed it, so HERE IT IS A COMIC

WARNING: Evil Picard is EVIL.

ONE NIGHT ONLY

Ridin' down the highway,
Goin' to a show...
Stop in all the by-ways,
Playin' rock 'n' roll.
Gettin' robbed.
Gettin' stoned.
Gettin' beat up...
Broken boned.
Gettin' had,
Gettin' took.
I tell you folks,
It's harder than it looks...

It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll...

In Memory of Ricardo Montalbán

... who passed away today. I heard it on the radio, and I'm going to be sure to watch some Fantasy Island or maybe some classic Star Trek ("Space Seed").

In the meantime, here's something quick to enjoy and remember.

"Pup Patrol" commercial, circa '76

In keeping with the "buddy-cop" phenomena of the 1970's, "Pup Patrol" was a hard-hitting action/comedy series about two canine cops: Chuck the Poodle and his Yorkie partner, Johnny Cash. Together they protected the mean streets of Lupus City.

(Alright, not TECHNICALLY a sketch...)

Clive-7.7

Clive-7.7 is the android assistant (and creation) of Aristotle Cooke, captain of The Argus. The cranky captain had no desire to ship out with a human crew, but was intelligent enough to know he couldn't run his vessel alone. As a master inventor, programmer, and engineer, Cooke felt that designing his own co-pilot was the answer. Built purely to do the heavy-lifting (literally and figuratively), Clive-7.7 ended up becoming far more human than Aristotle had ever imagined.

This "brief" post is starting to get a bit wordy; I guess it really has been WAY too long since I've done this. Maybe I'll talk more about Clive later... for now, click the thumbnail for a larger view:

Ms. Hunter

Not much of a sketch for tonight, but to try to kick myself back into the habit of posting regularly, here's a quick drawing I did of Ms. Hunter from my old Commander X comics. Haven't drawn her in awhile, but I'm very happy with how it turned out.
