Description

This was originally an unfinished sketch by Ben Edlund that the EIC of New England Comics had. They wanted to turn it into the cover, but it needed some finishing. In the original, only part of the T-Rex is showing, only one hand is drawn, and it it an unfinished piece. I did my best to finish it off, ink it, and I colored it for the latest printing of Karma Tornado. It was a bit scary, but fun and truly an honor.

[EDIT: I met Ben Edlund at SDCC 2017 as well as Chris McCulloch (a.k.a. Jackson Publick), and they were both kind enough to sign/sketch on my original cover art, look at my work, and say a few nice words. Art Director Bob Polio also signed my art and added a nice little sketch.]
