You can frequently track what i'm doing by what appears on this blog. Though i may plan things, what really happens is i just tend to record where my brain wanders. So, when it kind of just stops - well, you get weeks like the one just passed. I tend to think most folks don't want to read the blog page equivalent of a dial tone. (Do they still have those? It's been so long since i touched a phone, and they've changed so much, i have to wonder...)
Anyway, while not doing tremendously better at the moment, i have managed to dig into some of those 'plan' piles to prep some work. Just a little bit back, in July, i made mention that we should look more at Eddie Eddings' work. If you don't recall, or never saw that post, it was the toon with Superman commenting on Jimmy wearing pink, too, that triggered the mention.
I believe i also made mention of him taking on some of the art chores for Don Rosa's Information Center, too -
Those columns were, of course, for the Rocket's Blast Comic Collector, wherein all of today's artwork appeared back in 1978 & '79. Some of these are deeply enmeshed in the times, others one could drop in an orange hairball and run them today -
If you were perhaps wondering what some more traditional comic book art would look like from Eddie, here he is working with Kerry Gammill...
...and by himself -
Okay, that's about it. I'm exhausted and gonna stop wrangling the beast for a bit...
art by Eddie Eddings from RBCC #s 141-149 (1978, 1979)
