IF: Grow


Always make sure to address personal issues before you grow up...otherwise you could be running around in tights at odd hours and needing lots of therapy...

I knew there was more to the story about Batman that the movies just were not telling us!

Nice blue. I really like the way that you rendered his mask and cape.

Thanks all...it all started out as a doodle...and I loved the ball point pen I had so much I decided to just keep on doodling...it had such a nice feel to it...the guy in the back is the Joker and all of the background images are from previous episodes of batman or the comic book...of which I have not kept up with in 20 some odd years...but who could forget such great moments as the shark on batman's leg as he climbed up a ladder to the batcopter...and had to use the bat shark repellent...TV gold...

bluerose said...

Ha! love the undertones and ball point pen feel together. Something mood-setting and magical about the two.

The ballpoint pen is one of my favorite tools as well. It's amazing what great work you can get out of such an inexpensive tool.
Fantastic work...great humor.

I hope he lives a very long time, because the working out of those issues will take more than a natural lifetime I think. Fantastic, funny funny sketch, and originality Brian!
