TO THE FUTURE AND BEYOND!!
If you're looking for something to look forward to in the coming year (and who isn't?), here's a sneak peak at some additions coming to
The NoWhere-Men.com. The above image features
The Phantom Aardvark™ in pitched battle with
The Maniacal Mister Bones™. Although the pair eventually become fast friends and allies as members of
The NoWhere-Men™, they were not always as such and at one time were fierce rivals. I drew the pen, brush, and ink version of this image back in the early 1980's, and colored it years later in Photoshop, in 2001. Two decades later, I'm posting it here online for the first time! When this image is uploaded to
The NoWhere-Men.com, the two logos will be fully animated GIF images. Those animations exist already and are very cool, if I do say so myself. And if I don't, who will?! Updates to
The NoWhere-Men™ website have been in the works for some time, but 2022 promises to be the year of their unveiling. Among the other additions, which include new full-color art, there will be a page featuring sketches of the characters. The image below is possibly the very first sketch of
The Maniacal Mister Bones™. I believe this dates to 1975. Apparently, I was into some serious dramatic foreshortening back then! The creation of several of The
NoWhere-Men™ predates even the Wacky Mr. B, by more than a few years.
The Phantom Aardvark™ was created by my NoWhere-Men collaborator and co-creator
Dave LeBlanc in the early 1970's, as was
The Electron™, and
Norbo The Vampire™. A few of my creations go back to 1969-'71 and we co-created a bunch more over the years.But enough about the old days, here's to the future! May it be one of
hope and peace. And maybe a little fun, too. Stay tuned for more updates, and, as always, you can click on the above images to see the full-size, awesome art!
