Description
The main "pitch illo" from my rejected proposal for a GEN13/ DIRTY PAIR crossover, circa roughly 1997.The "Junk Mail" nanotech-based plot actually derives from yet another failed project, an X-FORCE pitch I made to Marvel a few years earlier.

Again, this would have been totally frigging awesomesauce had it panned out. Nonsense, over-the-top and crazy, but in a good kind of way. Woulda totally bought it too.
True, I'm sorta biased. Personally I think you're the best writer Gen13 ever had during the original Wildstorm run (LOADED STATEMENT). Or maybe it's your about the only person who drew Fairchild with any muscle mass instead of being a stick figure with honking great boobs.

This just really depressed me. Potential best cross over ever.

It's gotta be tuff as corn-shitz when your ideas get shot down.

Great illustrations of what could have been Mr.Warren. I thought once what a cool crossover that would've been,the girls meet the Gens. There are a number of super heroes i'd like to see team up with the Dirty Pair as well.

Alas, this might have been interesting. It couldn't have been worse then some of the other crossovers. (Spiderman... Gen-X... even the Max one was kinda lame...)
Gen-13 must have been cursed, it always had a lot of potential, but (and I didn't make it as far as your tenure in that office, so don't take it personally) the teams that I did read after the creators left had a hard time carrying the ball. (Someone should have messaged Chris Clairmont that Gen-13 is NOT X-Men...)

Up until now, the only image of this I'd seen was a cropped, askew scan at an eBay auction for the "Sketchbook". It's nice to see the whole drawing at last...

What a shame! Back in the old days, these were the only two books I was reading...it would've been perfect!
Any chance you have more sketches from the pitch?

same as said above i miss them god ol days when id see ur art on gen13 do you still do work with that book?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Nope... The only thing I've done recently for G13 is a variant cover for the new Gen13 series' issue 3. It's over in my gallery, puzzlingly recategorized as "fan art", despite the fact that it's an actual Gen13 cover. DA moves in mysterious ways, at times... Link below.

Yeah, that could've have been one awsome issue of Gen13 and Dirty pair. Maybe some day.

It would've been a kicking cover.
I was wondering, how many times have you drawn Roxy wearing that Everlast tank-top?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Only in the GRUNGE THE MOVIE arc, actually... However, I've drawn that leather jacket on her, and on Skaya from Cannibal Sun, and a large # of other characters, HUNDREDS of times. Love that jacket (or, at least, my photoreference shots of it)...

nice... hey would you be interested in joining the gen13 deviantart club and submitting all your work for other gen13 fans to see? i always link back to the original art. would be nice to see your stuff in the gallery... hell, even bill maus (writer/artist of "Skin13") is in it.

That looks so awesome. *sigh* Ah, what might have been.

Would you consider RE-proposing it now that Wildstorm is under DC? or was it already under DC at the time? Would it have even made a difference?

What do you mean to bad, you had no idea what it was to begin with to even think it was worth rejecting.

...how can anyone turn down the Dirty Pair? Are the project overseers even human?

i contemplate the utter hand-breakage that would be to ink....
Sounds like fun, heh.
