Description
So I did some work in the prelude for Image United. I had a blast drawing with Erik Larsen and Whilce Portacio on the same board. Basically how it worked was Erik drew the layout and quickly inked his foreground characters, then I pencilled and inked my character and sent it off to Whilce who will finish his and then send it back to Larsen so he can finish his characters and the backgrounds.I don't know what happened to the finished files I had but here's what it looked like when I got through with my part. As you can see Erik threw on some dialogue for fun, and I threw on a note for Whilce to go ahead and draw over my character with white ink if he needs to. I did 8 pages like this total, not sure if I'll post more. Just thought I'd show off this one. Fun stuff!

that looks so confusing... how many times did you pass the art back and forward?

OMG...that sounds like a lot of back and forth to get this done. The finished product was well worth the effort put into it though. As always Image produces a groundbreaking comic!

I like how Larsen's "Fortress" lettering looks like "Footies"
I think I'll read it as footies just for my own edification.

I LOVE your stuff. It reminds me of 90s comics, where things seemed to be done more for fun. Now things are way too realistic. This is the main reason for the only comic I actually have fun reading and looking at the drawings from panel to panel is THE INVINCIBLE.
I'd really like to meet you at a con someday and perhaps buying an original from you. By the way, do you sell your originals? I recall having read something about it here at your dA, but I don't remember exactly where. I'd appreciate it if you could point a link out to me.
Thanks!

I, for one, would like to see more. 10 year old me would have killed to be able to be drawing on the same page as the Image founders.

Yeah 16 year old me would've killed for the same. Maybe I'll post another.
