Thanks for your comment, Marcus, and a general thank you for past comments. It's nice to know someone out there is paying attention to my efforts.
This was drawn on a sheet of manila paper and colored with colored pencils.
Steve Willis is a mainstay of the underground minicomix movement. He attended college with Matt Groening, Charles Burns and Lynda Barry. His Morty Comix series are all one of a kind originals and he has recently surpassed issue #10,000. (No, that's not a typo.)
That's a Caniff original. The unique lettering by Shel Dorf is a dead give away.
I should probably hunt for some of these in the back issue bins next time I go to a comic book convention! (And, no, I'm not referencing some lame joke about hunting dogs.)
Hey! Tht middle drawing is by me, Bruce Chrislip. As far as I know, it was drawn at a Cartoonists Northwest meeting in Seattle in the early 1990s . I'm curious how it made its way to you.
Did you ever imagine back in the 1970s when we were a bunch of comic book fans at YSU that one of your art heroes would one day paint a portrait of you and your future wife? This is too cool for words, Topper!
Always loved Gene Colan's work, with the Colan/Palmer Dr. Strange pages being my favorites. Back in the 1970s, I almost got to meet Gene. We invited him to be a guest at one of our OhioCon comic book conventions but time committments got in the way.
Hey, Topper, this is great stuff! Maybe your best art ever. Of course, I've only known you since the YSU days. Check out my gallery if you get a chance. It's not as extensive as yours, but you should find a few pieces of interest. Take care.
