Wow! Some awesome stuff already... Great work guys. Here's one that I too did a while ago and some may have seen.
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Great stuff so far! DrakeB3004, this is certainly your forte. I've done lots of Wildfire images over the years, but I think I'll do something new for this exhibit.
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Well, I guess I'd rather show an older photomanip I did....

Drake, like you Wildfire has always been my favorite Legionnaire, and I really love seeing your pics of him.
Great stuff!

And part one of a four-part series entitled: "Wildfire: Legionnaire No More!" Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Part 2 Posted by Monkey Eater Lad on :
love the kirby dots! and you used one of those chickeny-headed aliens!
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Drake, Just want you to know that I think the pages look fantastic. Looking forward to the whole set being complete. You're totally pro level!
Posted by Star Boy on :
Those are fantastic Drake! *awed*
Posted by Omni Craig on :
Keep them comin' Drake! Great to see Wildfire in action again!

Part 3 Posted by Lightning Lad on :
Why didn't anyone tell me Drake was doing a new Wildfire set? These are absolutely gorgeous! Better than some of the back-up art we get on the current series. Makes me want to break out Paint Shop and start coloring. Any chance of getting some larger scans to play with the color?
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Ooo, the story's really coming along. Can't wait for the conclusion!
Posted by DrakeB3004 on :
Here's the conclusion (finally!)
I'm kinda bummed though that I'm the only one who supplied new images for this gallery!

That's a superb short story, and it's so clearly told that it almost doesn't need dialogue. (I'd love to see someone try color for it, though.)
You've been so adept at portraits that I genuinely didn't expect this sequential art. With a bit even left hanging (whither the ring on the floor?). A vivid bit of a tale for two of my favorite Legion people!
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Nicely done, DrakeB3004!
Yeah, you know, I was really busy in June or else I would have contributed something. Maybe I will now that things are mellowing out for me....
Posted by Sketch Lad on :
Here's a quick colored sketch. My critique of my own work would be that I think this would be better if I showed his arms, with the image centered better. Otherwise, I felt like this was a pretty dynamic image. [IMG][/IMG]

And another... [IMG][/IMG]

Ha! Great job ME Lad - he's so cute!
And Dean, you continually impress me with how effective you can be with a quick sketch and a little bit of color!

Great DOFP homage, and I love the Wildfire/Dawnstar pic above it too....gives Dawny a touch of narcissism which doesn't surprise me in the slightest.. Posted by lil'rhino on :

You can find it in Essential X-Men. I really enjoyed those issues.
I like this parody cover. Wildfire definantly fits in Wolverine's place.

Yes, it changed comics. After this story, Marvel came up with lots of ways to kill the X-Men and still keep them.
I asked Claremont about the results of this issue and he got angry. Then, later, he apologized and said (paraphrased) that he never intended or foresaw the resulting bloodbaths.
sigh At least, that's how I remember the conversations.
