Description I recently received a fan letter from a fellow named Hans in Germany, who told me he was a fan of my work, particularly "Dead Duck" and "Necronomicomics". He mentioned how he collects sketches from cartoonists he admires, and asks them to draw something with a pig in it, a common theme in his collection. He sent me some scans of other artists that contributed, such as Art Spiegelman (Maus) and Will Eisner (The Spirit). I was touched and honored that he asked me to contribute a sketch, so I drew this small piece of my character, Bodie Troll, trying to scare a large pig (if you look close, you'll see a smaller piglet to the left, grabbing some nourishment). I'm thrilled to know I have a fan in Germany, and I'm excitedly putting this sketch in the mail today!

Now that you're becoming world-renowned, are you still gonna hang out with us?

I think Bodie needs practice.

Hey, if Deviant Art is good enough for Chris Sanders and Adam Hughes, than it's more than good enough for me! I'm here to stay!

Hans is a lucky guy, getting an original sketch of yours (especially one with Bodie) as a gift

You're international!! Being grouped in the same company as Art Spiegelman, whose Maus I loved, is high praise indeed. That pig should be lucky Bodie only wants to SCARE him, not turn him into BBQ. Rest assured that Bodie would be the one running for his life if he took on the feral pigs that often run loose in the swamps down in the South. Great work.

No doubt this pig would chase Bodie a country mile!
