Description

Hulk & Rick Jones Paradise Toronto Comicon badge
artwork by Michael Cho
Toronto 2008

I've been on the hunt for a Michael Cho piece and was very happy to find this one. Cho did the original in blue and later changed it to green digitally. This piece was done for the 2008 Paradise Toronto Comicon and used for guest badges. The con was later sold to Wizard in 2009.

The piece was purchased from Cho August 22nd at Fan Expo Canada by another collector. As an added bonus there is original art on the front and the back. Thanks to Jason for parting with this one.

Cho stated, "I drew this up for a toronto comic-con, and the assigned theme was (duh!) the Incredible Hulk. A few of us Toronto comic artists were doing Hulk images for it, kinda like a "Hulk thru the years" thing, and I chose to draw original Jack Kirby designed Hulk. The final artwork is meant to fit on a badge, so it'll be printed really really small, like 2" x 2" or so. And of course, my usual green-toned drawing style was a natural fit for the subject.

Now, for something that's so small, I actually went through a bit of a process coming up with the final art. A failed thumbnail, a couple of revisions and a helpful critique from fellow artist Ron Salas were all part of the journey to the finished piece. But even though it might look like it was labour intensive, the whole thing took probably about 3 or 4 hours in total. If you're interested in the process, you can check out my various sketches below."
