Description
It’s so ridiculously easy to jump on the Hembeck bandwagon. For one thing, there’s certainly no shortage of supply. I mean, on any given week, Fred has at least a dozen auctions running on eBay. Plus, the art is just so great and so much fun. I usually check the eBay listings at least once a week to see what new pieces he put up. At this point, I don’t think there is a character left from any comic publisher that he hasn’t drawn. When I saw this Invaders piece, I immediately loved that it was different from his usual single character drawings. I don’t know why, but I just thought how odd it was that they were all smiling. Even Namor had just the slightest grin on his face (although he still looked more pissed than anything else). Certainly not the usual intimidating sight that the Nazis were used to seeing charging towards them. But for a Hembeck drawing, it was just perfect. Anyway, it’s my first Hembeck. But more than likely, it won’t be my last. Thanks to Fred for a quick, easy, and smooth transaction. And thank you all for stopping by.

There are many, but these are pretty fun.  At some point I will get one of my own.  Congrats on finding yours.

BRILLIANT, Marcus.  This is like your "Hembeck take" on all the lyrical masterworks you're always dropping.  Cracks me up - well played, sir! :)

Who knew, except you? The newest member of the team, armed only with the power of mixed media, facing a not so insurmountable task. A invader who has to break through a piece of paper to reach them. But is he enemy or friend? Will he rip them to pieces or back stab them, or will he join the fight against the Axis powers wielding his patented shield of paper and pointy pen?

Can't beat a great Hembeck piece!  And happy Namor?  Gotta love it.

Fantastic Hembeck, Eric!  Love it!  Fred is a master.  He always does such a great Cap, and his Namor always sports such an attitude (as it should), but always with the inimitable Hembeck style of fun and celebration of these characters, groups, and/or situations we've all grown up (well, grown older) loving.  But the deal-sealer for me here is the Torch; love the charming body language and expression; even the wisp of flame adds a "caliente coiffure" and balances out the composition.  What a sweet get, Eric - congrats on your first (really?  can that be right?) Hembeck!

Oh wow, I didn't know Fred posted so many auctions on eBay!  I'll have to check that out, because I absolutely love his artistic style.  This is a super fun piece.  I love that they are all smiling too.  And that they all have identical knees.  Haha!  Great get.

Love the characters on this one. I was gifted one recently and will be posting it soon. It is my first and probably wont be my last either.
