In the comics community, All Stars Comics #3 is a fairly famous image. Lots of parodies/tributes have been created over the years. With this latest commission, it was my turn! The request was to change certain characters and add specific dialog. Done and done!

My latest commission was to draw Spider-Man and Alfred E. Neuman on a blank comic cover. The patron asked for a "worry" theme. Clever. Btw, I accidentally got a small ink smudge on the back cover! I wasn't sure what to do, so I signed it.

@BrianWPrescott Both are true! I inked/colored/etc this Kirby sketch.

#SpiderMan #Marvel Masterwork by #JackKirby or actually by @KerryCallen to look like a Kirby Spidey?! 🕷️

I love how random my commission requests can be. Here's the cover to MIGHTY SAMSON #1, from 1965, redraw in a Simpsons style!

If I remember correctly, "The Prisoner" TV show ran in the late 60's. A couple of years later, "Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp" ran two seasons. Here they BOTH are mashed into one image. I get asked to do the craziest commissions (which I love)! He wanted it in B&W only.

Latest commission. I don’t think anyone has ever seen these characters together! Top to bottom, are Fat Man, Red Tornado, Bizarro Dr. Fate, Forbush Man, and Johnny Appleseed.

@KerryCallen I have the same type of appreciation for the Great Lakes Avengers.

I've been a fan of the Inferior Five since I was a kid. Sadly, they've had very few appearances since the 60's. I recently had the itch to draw them, so I scratched it! I put them in an "Avengers Circle"!

@ingrediments Dang!

@KerryCallen I love the Inferior Five. For a while, I was collecting all of their old comics, but then there was some spring cleaning gone awry, and now I only have one or two issues anymore.

@mypalalex1989 I followed the request of the commission.

@KerryCallen No Supergirl vs Mary Marvel?

Wonder Girl vs Mary Marvel, a commission I just finished. I'm not sure who would win!

This latest commission was a request for Green Arrow and Black Canary. I decided to draw a classic battle pose. Mostly. I can’t stop myself from doing such things.

Newest commission. The request was for drawing Superman and Lois Lane together. The situation was left up to me. 😁

@black_bile They probably exist!

@KerryCallen Initially read that as an Asterix watch,

I'm excited to announce Asterisk Watches is producing a wristwatch based on my popular "Happiness is Fleeting" art! The floating arm is the minute hand, while the hour is displayed in a cloud. So fun! Only a couple of weeks left on Kickstarter. kickstarter.com/projects/aster…

Latest commission-- A take-off of the classic Batman vs. The Incredible Hulk treasury. Who wins?

I didn't spend much time on this, quickly pulling various things from the internet. But, I had to better envision the hat I dreamt about last night! (It had a generic alien, but I thought Marvin would look good.)

With so many classic characters falling into public domain lately, I'm surprised I haven't seen any used in advertising! I'll start to ball rolling--

The very first Batman comic I owned was The Brave and the Bold #68. Batman turns into “Bat-Hulk.” He’s suddenly bulky and has molten-hot hands! I’ve long held a fondness for him and had the urge to do a drawing. You can read a little more about it here- 13thdimension.com/bat-hulk-the-m…

@jworth 😁

@KerryCallen This is a good joke.

I'm part of a Kickstarter campaign called ORPHAN WORKS. As the site says, “Cartoonists so often have unpublished stories sitting in their files. Now, at last, you'll get to see them too!” To give you a taste, here’s the first page of a story I contributed. kck.st/3LGXdwv
