Minuteman - Capt. America's replacement.

I know that Captain America's flag draped body is not even cold in the ground yet, but in case they need a replacement, here's my Cap clone "Minuteman". He's named for the American Revolutionary War citizen fighters, and the mascot of my high school, Thomas Jefferson HS in Elizabeth, NJ.





I never came up with a origin for Minuteman maybe I'll get around to it one day. He's one of long list of original characters I need to update and get out there, somehow. I'll have to post them here, every now and then.

Enjoy.

Captain America R.I.P.

It seems Marvel Comic killed off Captain America recently. Isn't that a really "un-american" thing to a national hero and WWII vet like Cap? Let's hope this turn of events follows the "Death of Superman" lead and we see a new Captain American rising from the grave.

Until then, here my art tribute to Captain America. These are unpublished pencil page I did ages ago of Cap encountering Electra. (Click on the image for a larger view)







Below are the opening pages of my Dragonfly - Marvel Ultimate Alliance Game Flipz™ Book. It from the game opening featuring the "Ultimate" version of Captain Amercia and other Marvel heroes in action. (Again, click on the image for a larger view)



And, for those who missed it here's full Game Flipz™ movie.



Enjoy.

Kingdom Hearts - Mickey Mouse the Warrior


Heres a cool image from the CGI trailer Of the game Kingdom Hearts II - Final Mix. It features Disney and "Final Fantasy" Characters. Final Fantasy is one of the most popular RPG (Role Playing Game) in the world, created in Japan. Kingdom Heart is a interest cross-culture mix, that seem to be doing very well (I admit I haven't played). With the on-going debate in some animation circles about 2D versus 3D renderings of classic characters, I thought this might be worth a look.

This image of Mickey only appears at the very end of the video, but if your interested here the whole clip from gametrailer.com.



Speaking of Final Fantasy here's a encore viewing of the Dragonfly Game Flipz™ book I did of the Final Fantasy XIII game trailer. The game is planned for release later this year or early next. So far this Game Flipz™ movie has received over 8,881 viewing on gametrailer.com and youtube.com with many positive comments from Final Fantasy players and fans. I'm still attempting to get follow up contact from Square-Enix, the game company behind Final Fantasy, to get permission to produce this book. But, until then, just enjoy the movie.
