COCHLEA & EUSTACHIA 2001

https://chromefetus.thecomicseries.com

This is the very first COCHLEA & EUSTACHIA comic I ever drew over two decades ago.

At the time, I was drawing my weird surrealistic comics when it was firmly recommended to me by friends and relatives that I should create a consistent character that could be licensed and marketed, etc.

I decided to make a pair of characters so they could converse with each other. I also decided it would be easier to just draw the same figure twice and make them twins. Having them be sexy girls in scant skirts would keep me entertained, and the masks made them seem almost like traditional superheroes.

The commercial potential of these two girls has yet to be fully realized, but I did discover that I didn’t mind drawing them repeatedly for the years that followed.

You can see in this early example, I still used lots of static cross-hatching to fill up space in the backgrounds. The girls were also a little meatier, which I think some readers still preferred. Oh, well.

More to come, soon!

Slumberland

 

This one is a little tricky to upload because of its peculiar size and dimensions. I'm not sure how easy it'll read on different types of screens, but I really don't want to chop it up and reformat it! 

This is is my entry for the excellent giant-sized anthology "Little Nemo : Dream Another Dream" published by Locust Moon Press back in 2014. An enormous tribute to Winsor McCay. This is what "Little Nemo in Slumberland" would've looked like if I was ever hired to draw the comic.

The print version was pretty dark, so I increased the brightness and saturation for legibility. Maybe I'll draw some more Slumberland strips?

SIGMUND FREUD

 

https://chromefetus.thecomicseries.com/

Here’s another comic that once appeared on the webcomic site, but was “lost” for a while. Now it’s been restored and is back for all to see.

I drew this comic over 25 years ago - long before “mashups” of Jack Kirby’s work became a thing in popular culture (or at least before I was aware of them). The idea came from a dream I had about reading a strange comic, and I decided to bring it into the real world. I copied some of my favorite Jack Kirby images from my own collection, and my good friend Ria - a talented writer with a great ear for dialogue - provided the words.
