Print Contest Winner!
Thank you everyone for your suggestions! All of them were great - although some of you need to brush up on the definition of public domain! :) There were so many great suggestions, I couldn't pick just one so we have TWO winners for the print contest! Congratulations to Fred for his suggestion of the Tarzan/Ape print and Brian Jones for his suggestion of a 50's SciFi print of a giant preying mantis. Both of you will get BOTH of these prints for your prize so please drop me a line with your mailing address.

90 Second Alpha One
I draw this guy's lantern jawed mug almost every day while working on the Mighty and still never tire of it. Gonna miss the big lug when we wrap up the series.

90 Second Green Lantern
Since I'm in a bit of a deadline crunch right now I figured I'd post a few quick sketches to help save a bit of time.
I figured we'd kick things off with this GL sketch since I'm currently working on a 6 pager for Blackest Night: Tales of the Green Lantern Corps #1.
Here's the cover and all of the solicitation info. I'm one of the "others" again :)
BLACKEST NIGHT: TALES OF THE CORPS #1 (OF 3)
Written by Geoff Johns and Peter J. Tomasi; Art by Rags Morales, Chris Sprouse, Ivan Reis, Doug Mahnke and others; Covers by Ed Benes and Rob Hunter; Variant covers by Gary Frank, Francis Manapul and Doug Mahnke
In this 3-issue miniseries, writers Geoff Johns and Peter J. Tomasi (GREEN LANTERN CORPS) reveal the secrets behind the Lanterns of BLACKEST NIGHT! Bear witness to Blue Lantern Saint Walker's pilgrimage of hope, Star Sapphire Carol Ferris' sacrifice for love, Green Lantern Kilowog's courageous beginnings, Red Lantern Vice's source of rage, Orange Lantern Blume's bizarre creation, and the first appearance of the mysterious Indigo, leader of the Indigo Tribe!

Black Lightning
I still miss the '70s style collared costume... but this one is starting to grow on me.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that if a Black Lightning film is ever made that the studio manages to get Sinbad to do a cameo, or maybe reprise his role in flashback scenes:)
Funeral For a Friend. Superman s Funeral.

Huntress vs Catman
I just wanted to give a big thanks to all the great folks I met over the weekend who were out at Acme Comics Free Comic Book Day event. You all couldn't have made me feel more welcome:)
The Acme team not only have a wonderful looking store, they put on a fantastic event to boot! You couldn't find a nicer group of people than the employees, volunteers and customers there over the weekend. I'm looking forward to heading back to North Carolina already!
Oh, and this Catman & Huntress piece was inspired by a bit action that took place in the background of a fight scene in an issue of Gail Simone and Nicola Scott's Birds of Prey.
Thanks again, Erica!
