I love you pencil work. I mean your work looks great inked. But there is just something extra about just the pencil drawings. I love it.

I've heard that a lot and until I can fully capture what I do with pencil with inks I won't be satisfied.

Great rendering, Rudy. I actually have been to Brownsville, TX, just briefly. I flew in to their tiny airport.

I drove there,...it was the longest drive ever. Mostly because I had to be at the Con as a guest and I left the night before,....it was almost non-stop.

The details in this is outstanding!

I get the feeling he's a Batman-type hero. No powers, but lots of gadgets and incredibly smart. Am I right?

Well, I always have that as an option. I'm hoping to succeed with the stuff I'm doing with CARNIVAL Comics and then one day do my own stories. You know, I'd love to wear your art on a tee one day.

Seriously. I'm told they have a big Possum issue in the gulf area of TX. I just think it's cool when people take odd ideas and make it happen in comics. I really enjoyed doing this one.
