Donny Cates sketch

Day Twenty three of 30 days of posting art...

Donny Cates by Ryan Stegman! Yeah, this. Why not amiright! But how? Let me tell ya...

Went to a con way back in 2019. It was the height of the Absolute Carnage run. Stegman and Cates are tabled together at a con near me and I had stacks of books to get signed. That's the when of it. The how...well, kinda a trade of sorts with Stegman. So, I came up with idea you see here...taking from Cate's past with Valofax and the here and now of it with Carnage and Stegman took care of the rest. People say all the times..."I could not have been happier". Well letmetellya...I was so f'n happy. It was a cool experience with two cool guys who really spent some time talking to me, signing my books and just making the happiest experience I had in a while. Hats off to those two guys, can't thank them enough.
