THE BLACK BEETLE by Francesco Francavilla

Click on it for larger SIZE!!! ;)

And this is the second piece I was mentioning in the previous post:)
Ithas been about a year since we had the Black Beetle week here on Comic Twart (producing some of the best Twarts I have seen on this blog, IMO), and - because of my busy schedule - I haven't been drawing much of my creator owned favorite character since then. So I decided to "ketchup" on the Black Beetle, also to announce that his advetures will soon come back on Pulp Sunday and - possibly - in print format too. Fingers crossed. :)

Meanwhile hope you guys enjoy this rare Italian edition of Kara Bocek :)

Cheers,
Francesco

I've had my nose to the ol' grindstone of late on comics work but, even though it's just a bust sketch, I just had to squeeze in my take on Francesco's wonderful Black Beetle character.
Killer job on the sketches this week, gents!!! I don't know how you guys manage to up your game every week! I've gotta say that I'm humbled to have my work among yours and I'm honored to call myself a Twartist.

still having fun with this painting thing. hope you like it, francesco. i'm throwing in the sketch too (cuz i like how it turned out...)


btw, it's not lost on me that this is the second piece i've done for this site featuring a pair of dead-lady legs. i am seeking counseling. (at least this time around the character's perturbed by it...)

also, junior boys twartists brigade member and all around swell guy brion salazar sent this along. thanks brion, we love you too! go listen to the last days of brion's (and some other guys') awesome podcast around comics.

I had a few ideas for this when I first heard of this week's character and for some reason decided on the most time consuming one. I was caught up in the idea of creating history for a character that should have one but doesn't.

I should colour this at some point but for right now let's call this done.

After seeing all the astounding artwork posted after the first weeks here at Comic Twart, I couldn't help but choosing my own pulp hero, The Black Beetle, as my subject choice for this week's jam.
Can't wait to be blown away by this talented bunch. This is gonna be fun! :)

Here's my entry so now I can just sit back and enjoy the show like everyone else :)
