Doom the Consumer

I felt like drawing Doctor Doom a while back, but of course, I had to put my spin on him. This is my version of Doom getting his US consumer on. You're a long ways from Latvia, baby!

Another Satisfied Customer- JAMAR NICHOLAS!


My pal Jamar Nicholas, writer/creator/cartoonist/podcaster/Philadelphian extraordinaire sent me this pic of him holding his valued GHETTOMATION GARDEN DVD. I originally met Jamar through my other friends over at Fanboy Radio a few years ago. We met in person once in San Diego (Comic Con 2006 I think). Through the years we've kept in touch from time to time. Nice to know that Ghettomation is represented strong out in Philly! Jamar is living proof that its always funny in Philadelphia!

Click on his name to check out his stuff! Thanks for the pic, Jamar!

Were on a road to nowhere....taking that ride.

Majestic beauty. Ansel Adams-esque?

The scene for the next Friday the 13th movie perhaps.

Four heads. Foreheads.

Sit, sip a glass of Malta Goya, and enjoy this artwork. Haven't seen the film yet? CLICK HERE, Youngster! You'll be glad you did. Seen the film? What did you think?

Newsprint Alphanerd sketch

Lookit me...I'm all speckly.

Well, I got the brilliant idea to try and draw my cartoons (for animation) on newsprint. You know, keeping the whole "put the ghetto in Ghettomation" ethic. Well, it ain't happening. Seems scanning a clean line in newsprint is a pain in the rump. Looks kind of cool though, thought I'd share it with you.

Oh well, I am really happy drawing and scanning from my trusty 8 x 5.5 sketchbooks. The size is already formatted for "widescreen". Can't blame me for trying newsprint, though. Cheap and effective....much like my Ghettomation!

The Cougar and the Cub



The Cougar and the Cub! In all of its glory! No, this ain't a porn! You will not guess the ending to this one. Themesong by the Tampico Bros. If you listen real close, you'll hear some background voices from my good buddies Sherm Cohen, Kevin Cross, and Raul Aguirre jr (first and last scenes). At six minutes, this is the same length as your average Looney Tunes cartoon...and THATS what's up, doc! Enjoy!
