Artist's Comments

A LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN drawing, done at HeroesCon in Charlotte this past weekend. The quickest way to get a decent sketch from me is to pick subject matter I love. LEAGUE is my favorite comic, hands down.

Done in a bound sketchbook with Copic markers.

AND if you read the darn comic, you'd know he's not copping a feel, he's feeling her heartbeat. :-)

****Update*****

Wow! Lots of comments on this one! Just to clear up some things, for those who have no idea what's going on...

SHE is Mina Murray, from Bram Stoker's DRACULA.

HE is Edward Hyde, from Robert Louis Stevenson's THE STRANGE CASE OF DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE.

Those shapes in the back ARE the Martian Tripods from H. G. Welles' WAR OF THE WORLDS.

You can find all of them (and more!) in THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN, Vol. II, by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill.

This is a beautiful piece. I love the colors. The first thing I thought of though was booby grope. Man I'm a pervert xD

Huzzah!!!

Gorgeous work!

It was a pleasure meeting you at Heroes Con (I was the bespectacled bloke in the Captain Marvel shirt) and thanks for autographing my Star Trek: Debt of Honor book.
