My Blood Bound Oath…
Well, sort of.
I did some hand watercolor coloring for Alexis Fajardo’s new graphic novel Kid Beowulf and the Blood Bound Oath which have been posted on the official website.
Alexis’ new art work is looking fantastic and for the prologue he illustrated in a more realistic style and ask me to ad some watercolor washes to render the art. The final pages will be printed in black and white, but we decided I would work with some limited color and then converted them. This provides art that will look good in both color and black and white and can be used for many different purposes.
This is one of my favorite panels…

Bizzarro Superman
[singlepic=420,320,240,,]
In the Superman superhero mythos, Bizzarro is a duplicate of Superman created by Lex Luthor. Depending on what version you are reading, the duplicate is just like the Man of Steel at first. But soon things are not well and the clone’s make up is change to give his face a pale or faceted look and his mind goes along with it.
In some ways I don’t see Bizzarro as a villain as much as a super annoyance.
