DescriptionHere is a fun piece. Alex produced a number of pieces for the Dragon Lady Press as covers and pin-ups. Here is one of a series of 4 Terry pieces that he did. 1987. They were published inside Dragon Lady Press #8 which was a Terry and the Pirates reprint. I believe 5 pieces of art were produced for this series but one was redrawn and the one that didn't make the cut is already in my Alex Toth Gallery. Here is Big Stoop doing what Big Stoop does best.Social/Sharing |

Oh, so what Big Stoop does best is actually NOT being stoopid as I always assumed? Brilliant economy of line by Toth!

No, I think Stoop was actually short for stupid which wouldn't hold up in today's world. He had his tongue cut out by the Dragon Lady years earlier and has tried to extract revenge on more than one occassion. He is a fun, lovable giant in the series and uses his size and strength effortlessly at times almost looking surprised at how easy it was.

Wonderful example. I still need to find one of my own.

Oh, that sounds like fun! Well, except for the "Dragon Lady having cut out his tongue" part!

Fairly detailed as Toth wanted to emphasize the power with those rays in the background. He even adds the loose collection of the weapons on the bottom left knowing that area needed more points of interest.

Fun to see Toth tackle characters from one of his big influences.
