Description
Capt. Stone is Missing... is a new story created for Madefire (www.madefire.com) by myself and Christina McCormack. I LOVE where this is taking me, right through my styles from the late 1980s to today - this one, of course, is a faux-Bisley style circa 1991.Read the first five episodes for free on the Madefire app!
Enjoy!

This cover is a delirious orgy of influences, Liam. The retro-scifi font and titling with the grindhouse comic weathering, to the goofy 90's costume color scheme and impractically enormous gun. I love the "The Tyranny of THE ANT WOMEN." Are you sure Roger Corman didn't produce that one?

In my "greatness scale" you are just aside Corben, man!
Thank you for being a constant inspiration for me ( and somehow my teacher).
KEEP DRAWING FOREVER!

Actually It Reminds Me More of Corben than of Bisley...to be Honest...especially because of the whole colour scheme You Use.....Even Though....A Great Piece of Work !

Well Corben was a HUGE influence on Biz, as well as me, so I take that as a massive compliment! Thank you!

Rocks Big Time!!
This reminds me of Richard Corben's 'Den', Libratorre's 'Ranxerox' stuff(I know its spelled wrong)and others.
Definitely has that kind of late 80's early 90's thing. Maybe thats why I like it. The whole Ant Women thing is great! A parody of parody! Would make a cool poster.
I will always be a fan of the era. I had a Heavy Metal subscription my entire adolescence. Its no wonder I am so twisted.

INFLICTING RANT TIME !!
THE TYRANNY OF THE ANT WOMEN!!
LOL HO NO not that kind of 80's Machismo "Machist machinery" Repentant kind of stuff here humm ?
WELL let me humble say what all this is full of!!!
Exaggerated pride in masculinity, perceived as power, often coupled with a minimal sense of responsibility and disregard of consequences.
When the fault is all on the ANT WHOMAN ...
( or translating - working worried who mans that demand too much )
WELL BACK to the 80s and we are all Hippies and we could abuse whomans and have free sex AGAIN !!
GOD
In 2010 right now whomans are the ones that abuse mans .. wallets .. in exange for just a lil sex nowadays ....
SO LETS KILL them all like they were ANTS !!!
At least in our graphic novels ...
(( WERE THA HECK IS THE NON SUITABLE TO 16 OR MINORS Warning Anyway !!)
And yu ACTUALY saying thats WAS ACTUALY a WHOMAN The script writer ? that induced this topic ...
(( and yu Didd actualy have "Nothing to do with it - yo just the artist hum ? Right ... ))
THAT is ODD but how convenient humm ..
Anyway ...
HEY AMAZING MACHISMO ART as always ...
!
All the best !
Congratulations !
Good luck !

Actually, Ruben, you're absolutely 100% RIGHT about this - which is why it's dated as 1991. It's meant to be old-school OTT macho bullcrap! But this isn't the story at all... wait and see! (That said, I do have a soft spot for that no-holds-barred stuff. It WAS kind of rock n roll on paper...)
So yes, fair play all of the above - but it's satire. I'm laughing at my early 90's younger, more hormonal self...
Best,

Best,
L. HAHAHA I TOUGHT SO MY friend !...
I was also being satirical ( as always in my comment ) to see how far you were being intelligent ...
BUT !
Thats one of the greatest point on you and your art
and everything yu do ...
Yu deeply dam think alot !
I love that IS AMAZING ...
Especially in this times were all "Comics" Are comic things and just BRAINLESS ...
That is a awesome move of you ...
"THE SATIRE To the Society"
The satire to some kind of people ... And some kind of thinking that get so well portraied
And also having fun with itself and its own characters ...
I have to pull my hat to this one .
God killers - your other work - in spite of in several parts also doing the same - joking with some overpowered characters ...
Was always more serious and therefore (boring) / in the eyes of common people ...
Not everyone love FANTASY ...
But everyone loves a god Satire - filled with intrinsic amazing mature art ...
I have to pull my hat because the way i see this ... new work yours , will be a amazing smash hit in marketing means ....
Now the question:
- Will be published by your own publisher ...
Or - with the spicy help of wild storm and dc ...
My very unique answer would be :
- SHOULD BE WITH THE BOTH ...
If i was yu i would first register in your MAMTOR That work ...
Then in behalf of mamtor i would contact wildstorm and dc - to make a "joinventure Publishing" ...
And i know that is giving your work away to the devil - with that Mamtor + DC Joinvemture for this amazing new Authorship Novel publishing ....
But as far this is amazing in marketing level Hitting with your Publisher name + Dc Name on the cover and hitting the shelfs worldwide in that one shot Mamtor + dc Publishing joinventure ...
MAN ! i'm waiting great things from this one ...
As far as i see its a pandora box , as from the same work yu can get "Fantasy like" those ant woman are fantasy .... As also SUPERHERO ... Worlds in 1 shot ...
DUDE WHY EVERYTHING YU DO Have to be so intrinsic amaziingg ...
I think yo starting to rule and play with this business ... from were it matters - the artistically creativity side - Like no Others ! CONGRATS MAN !
Now head on on making that Title over mamtor ...
Then the courage to propose a MAMTOR publishing JOINVENTURE with DC For this one MAN !
BE BRAVE Now ! CONGRATS ! HAVE FUN!

Oh, Corben was the master! Den remains seminal I think, and Muvovum was even more beautiful to look at. I lent my copy to somebody over ten years ago and have never managed to find out who that was and get it back... Must track one down!
Take care, and thanks!

a lot of people post some odd comments on here: odd cause they dont give you the respect u deserve for totally nailing the style he got traditionally in a digital manner! ur eye for the little perfections and imperfections of the style are all here. it really does take mind to do such great work liam.

LiamRSharp In reply to LordoftheBling-XXL [2010-04-08 09:41:49 +0000 UTC]
Thanks man. I've long been associated with Bisley, for better or worse, and it sometimes frustrates me that my own skills and style aren't more noticed. Biz took Sienkewicz, Frazetta and Corben into the mix to create his style. I'd include them in mine too, but also add Biz - even though technically I predated him in print. For all that this does indeed resemble Biz, I think it's also clearly very Liam Sharp too.
Take care mate.

oh no, sorry if i gave that impression. i took it for granted that u understood i notice ur own styles and when ur doin a pastiche deal with ur art. and i emphasize styleS. not many have as many as u do which is actually what we find most admirable about ur ethic!
