The Shadow - Conventionless Convention Sketch


The Shadow © Respective owner

This one is for Little John. I have always been a fan of The Shadow. I read a lot of the paperbacks that were published in the 1970s. I thought they were so cool. And I loved when Batman teamed up with the Shadow in the Batman title. I have to admit I didn't see the Shadow comic from DC until much later. I saw the house ads but never saw an issue on the newsstand. It was much tougher getting comics back then in the old days. :) Thanks LJ!

THE SHADOW - Not A Conventionless Convention Sketch


So for this Conventionless Convention Sketch,  I worked on a rough sketch, scanned it, printed it out on tabloid sized copy paper, and light boxed the line art onto an 11" x 17" sheet of Bristol Board. Then I inked it and scanned the final art. Pulled up my list of sketches so I could check this one off and...no one requested the Shadow? How the heck did I end up thinking that The Shadow was on my list? Oy. Bonus post for the day!

Ink on 11" x 17" Strathmore Bristol Board.
