Suplex

Wow, only 2 days and I'm back. Had some time off work and have a note to Blog on my Sticky Notes desktop app. This guys name was Suplex just cause I liked the name. I am sure I heard about watching wrestling. 1983 when I was still signing in cursive like Shultz but now I was adding the year in some type of style that I don't recall what I was trying to achieve. BTW all of there's are inked with a felt tip emulating Terry Austin (at least the way his stuff printed, softer than the originals look) and colored with those old "Design" markers that had a very strong odor. Purple and gold I suppose because I was just discovering or had learned about complimentary colors.

It's no wonder I was never successful as a comic book artist, I never have to seem to have time to complete anything. Of course as a child we have all the time in the world. Well here we are with another childhood swipe of a John Byrne pose. This nearly sums up everything I loved about his art. Just look at that right thigh and leg! I do not, and probably never will, recall the impetus for this character. Something in it reminds me of Dr Doom, but I have no idea why. Cheerio!
