Description

11x17 title page from the sixth issue of Hectic Planet.

I’ve been reading Eisner Award winning writer and cartoonist Evan Dorkin’s work for years, from his Pirate Corp$ series to his work on the Bill and Ted comic and later series like Milk and Cheese, Dork, Beasts of Burden, the Eltingville Club, and Blackwood.

I’m also a long time subscriber to his Patreon, where Evan shares hilarious recollections of his time in the industry and sneak previews of upcoming work, and the occasional sale of original art.

It was during one such sale that I inquired about this page from Hectic Planet, a continuation of the earlier Pirate Corp$ series. Hectic Planet blended sci-fi, romance, action, and music. A ray of light, in other words, piercing the artistic black hole of early ‘90s comics.

The book also featured a sprawling cast of characters, most of whom are featured on this page: Halby, Blue, Ron, Harlie, Datsun, and Vroom Socko. Dorkin even throws in a cameo by his Milk and Cheese.

Pure joy that showcases Dorkin’s skill at world and character building.

A nice passport photo for each character.  Pure distilled portraits!  A who's who piece for the Dorkinverse!

Very much enjoy taking in this piece. Need to read more Dorkin as his Bill&Ted was all I had read. Currently reading Eltingville

What an excellent page this must be for a fan of the series. This must contain ALL the major story players, I gather? Very nice, Mark!

What a memorable page!  A hectic planet is a happy planet, IMO, and everyone needs a Dorkin in their collection

Every character done in their own unique style. Very visually appealing. Love it.

WOW!  I've loved Dorkin's work since I was first exposed to it in the pages of Instant Piano as a teenager, so I'm blown away by the awesomeness of this page!
