Description
Elektra: Root Of Evil #1 Back Cover
Pencil/Inks by Scott McDaniel
11x17

This is the other back cover from this series I was able to acquire from Scott! The back cover to the first issue of the Elektra: Root Of Evil 4 issue Marvel Comics miniseries from 1995 written by Dan Chichester and illustrated by Scott McDaniel.

Direct quote from Scott with some tidbits about how he created these back covers:

"I created the tones using black ink, an atomizer, and miskit (a liquid frisket that creates a liquid mask that can be applied with a brush). Simply, the tones are small dots of black ink. All of the pencil under drawing is erased – everything you see is ink."

See additional image for the final published back cover image as well.

Song choice:

"Ever (Foreign Flag)" by Team Sleep

Ooh, really great! Hmm, now that I think about it, maybe I don't like the other one better than this one. Or maybe I do? Look, all I know is that I can't #@% decide, so just make sure you hang onto the pair of them!

Now the artwork's getting older
There's a few things to be had
Do you believe the things they told you
Do you believe comics you've read

There's Elektra on back cover
But we all saw when she died
Cause Scott don't want just any flipper
You're just getting the pretty sais

From the west sai to the east sai
From the north sai to the south
You'll never get Hand invitations
If you believe in their word of mouth

Love how experimental this is from Scott! You can tell he was having a ball with these back covers. I wonder if he ever used these methods on other work because I don't recall seeing it elsewhere.

Absolutely stunning work.  Possibly one of the best things McDaniel has done.
