Today’s sketch doesn’t have much to do with anything, really. Every once in a while, I get these little flashes of an idea for something I’d like to draw… a fleeting image that, like a fast flying bird’s shadow, flits across my brain. Some times, I can flesh it out and pull out that brief impression into something coherent. Other times, every attempt ulitmately amounts to nothing. Today’s ‘flit’ was just an impression I got of one of those old arrogant emperor-types who take on the mantle of not only the royal head of their nation… but also it’s military leader as well, whether they’ve actually served any military service or not. I kind of like the way it came out.

So.. this ends another week. Lets hope those folks in San Diego for COMICON INTERNATIONAL are having a fantastic time while those of us who couldn’t make it are here wishing we were there and scouring the comics news sites for anything interesting being announced at the show. For those of you who aren’t there and are reading this… have a great weekend.

This is Entry 406.
