Laura Gjovaag, who maintains the Bloggity-Blog-Blog-Blog…blog… is a huge fan of AQUAMAN. She regularly posts sketches that she’s gotten comics pros to do for her at shows. I enjoy seeing different artists interpretations of the character. Yesterday I posted a sketch I did of a LEGION “warm-up” I did a while back in anticipation of the possibility that I might be working on that title. Well, today’s sketch is along the same lines. Mark Waid and I often talk about projects we’d like to work on together– and AQUAMAN is a character that we both have an affinity for…. and we think along the same lines of how we’d like to see the character handled. We had been batting ideas back and forth and I got enthusiastic about the possibilities, so I worked up this sketch to send to Mark and show him how I visualized the AQUAMAN that was in my head. So– anyway, Laura– this one’s for you.

I have to send out a huge “THANK YOU” to Craig Zablo at the STALLONE ZONE for the feature on my blog and web site at the top of his own blog yesterday! He’s got a terrific site– and I was only familiar with his collecton of Sylvester Stallone art! So again, Craig– thank you very much!

Over at NEWSARAMA, there’s an interview with Ted Naifeh, who is, hands down, one of the most talented artists I’ve ever seen. The guy’s art is absolutely gorgeous and I really enjoy his COURTNEY CRUMIN series of mini series. He’s very prolific as well, which makes me envious that someone who draws that damned well can be so fast.

So that’s it for today.

More tomorrow, I hope.

Mike
