I had a set of working rapidographs back then...it made things a lot easier. There's 17 pages total; here's page 2. Heh, the story doesn't get any better. :biggrin:

Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries

I'm just a dandelion

Darned impressive. You've got awesome control. :D I could never get rolling with rapidographs -- the way they clogged and snagged the paper used to drive me spare.

Inking is hard. Hats off to you.

Heh, Tom and I were draftsmen for about 10 years before we got computers in our field; we spent 40-60 hours a week on the damn things.

When the man with a 45 meets the man with a rifle, you said the man with a pistol is a dead man. Let's see if it's true.

This is a half-page from Blue Beetle #3, which is theoretically on the shelves. :) It's sold out, but only because nobody really wanted it, so pre-orders were low.

I was frowned down for doing a "pale imitation of Cully Hamner," but a couple of reviews liked the mugging/humor.
I found 1-3 yesterday, and I think you did a fine job keeping the Cully look. And yes, I like the humor of the book, too.

Thanks. :) Of course on second glance there are things I'd do differently, especially in the last fight, but it's always that way. Best not to get too worked up about it.
