Description

Daredevil! Cerebus the Aardvark! Tiki Bar! Anthony Carpenter playing to his strengths and totally nailing the concept and the tone of this second entry into the "A Beer With The Devil" commission series. I love the fact that Anthony went bananas with the tiki lounge theme and played to the characters� personalities so effectively. Just astonishing in the level of detail and the execution of such a wonderful, narrative-rich piece of art.

I can't recommend Anthony highly enough. He goes all-out.

About the theme:

I cut my teeth on Daredevil during the classic Nocenti/John Romita, Jr. run during the 1980's. During the run, there was a particularly poignant issue (#266 to be exact) in which a roughed-up DD seeks solace during the holidays in a bar. While there, Mephisto, disguised as a flirtatious brunette (DD's weakness, of course) tries to tempt him, eventually revealing his true identity when DD fails to take the bait. The title of that issue was "A Beer With the Devil," which, for some reason, has stuck with me over the years. Recently, I realized that not only did that title have some historic resonance, but it also could serve as the basis for a really fun DD-centric theme for commissions, in which DD shares some suds with one or more unexpected running mates or characters of the artist's choosing.
