Description

In 1988, I wrote Dave a gushing fan letter along with some of my art samples. To my great shock, he not only wrote me back. But made an offer to have me work on Issue 3?! I was ecstatic, but sadly the work never materialized. I think he probably got cold feet, due to my inexperience. The work instead, went to Stan Manoukian & Vince Roucher, Art Adams, and another friend: Sandy Plunkett. I know that Stan & Vince had a hand in working on the pages I was able to purchase from Albert Moy. But clearly, Dave had a heavy hand in Art Directing every aspect of the artwork. Inking much of the work (I believe), himself..

What a shame you didn't get to work with Dave Stevens. How cool would that have been? Your own credits aren't too shabby, sir. You do really nice work!

Thank you for your kind words, Steven! Yeah, it would've been an amazing experience to work with him. But I was happy to know him as a friend. Got to hang with him at SDCC shows I attended. He even let me sell my self-published Sketchbook from his Booth? Talk about the ultimate DS Fan Experience?! LOL
