Here’s something rather beautiful. If you like comics and you haven’t ever read Elephantmen then you need to. It is a glorious tale of bio engineered animals and war and private detectives and…Look just trust me okay, I haven’t let you down yet.
The art in the header photo is a piece I picked up at a con in 2013. You can see the original sketch below and then the version that made it into the actual comic book. I also managed to get the artist, Boo Cook, and the Writer, Richard Starkings, to sign my copy of the graphic novel. My art work is also signed by Boo Cook.
I do adore Boo Cook’s work and have a few other pieces that I will share at some point because his work is just fantastic. No one draws creepy crawlies like Boo Cook. Richard Starkings story is a masterpiece and you know what, I think I am going to read them again this weekend.

Hmmm… I might have to try drawing a few of these. Would be good practice for me. 😉

More fantastic art work. I may have to look for that series – our library has a large section of graphic novels.
