Description

Comic Book Cover, Hardcase, and The Strangers, Malibu Comics. Pencil, ink, china marker, gouache. An in-your-face, comic-book-action style illustration. This was a crossover team-up issue, both for the characters, and for the illustrators. I suggested the editor let me do a cover illustration for HARDCASE that linked with the cover for THE STRANGERS. But since I despise gimmicks that exploit the comic buyers, I didn't want to cheat anyone who didn't wish to buy both issues. I convinced the editor to print both covers on both issues. The HARDCASE cover would have a gatefold, with THE STRANGERS cover as a foldout. THE STRANGERS issue would have a wraparound cover, with the HARDCASE cover printed on the back.
I did a layout for both covers. I penciled and inked the HARDCASE half, while Rick Hoberg, the regular artist for THE STRANGERS, completed the pencil drawing for the other half, and then I inked the rest. Rick is a true gentleman, and was great to work with.
