In case you didn't catch it, I used your Hero for Hire drawing as the opening of Jay Potts' "Understanding Luke Cage" Article. I colored it, and I think it worked out pretty well! Here's the preview:

I did catch that! It's coolness. I wanted to comment that your coloring really worked to give the piece more pop (but, I didn't for some reason). I also liked how the article's type worked around the figure. How long will the issue be on sale?

Of course, since the original piece is more than 20 minutes old, I now think it's awful and that can do better.

The issues will be available online basically forever, so it's no rush. Eventually they will be on Indyplanet, and I'll link to it.

I know how you feel about your art. We all are our toughest critic!

I like your work. I love your ENJP, brilliant. I was thinking about a suggestion.. how about drawing this ENJPs base? There must be an organization behind him, don't you think?

Thanks!

Actually, I did have a TINY sketch of the ENJP Antarctic base. Nothing more, though. I may expand on it. Do you have any thoughts? I've been looking for a writer so that a comic could be made...

So why don't you write it yourself, that would be awesome, because it is clearly you are full of great ideas. I thought it would be great to give it a nice dictator touch, maybe german or korean inspired. Lot's of tanks, looking like polarbears..

You're welcome! I have never seen any illustrations of The Dharma Bums, and it is one of my favorite books of all time. I think the style you used for that comic matches the tone of the book really well.
