Just wanted to briefly say that I’m super-psyched for the 30CC!
I settled on a Public Domain Superhero called THE STEEL FIST for my 1st character. I love these public domain characters and I thought let’s give him a remodel.
Daniel Slade is an International playboy and gambler by day. He is also a commander and top agent of F.I.S.T.: a global secret agency dedicated to bringing high-tech justice to evildoers and crime syndicates who would undermine our shiny plastic democracies! Dan is seemingly felled by diabolical minions of DIRECTOR: GOLGOTHA and his JET HARPIES- crashing his private party jet into Mt. Vesuvius while attempting “The STARDUSTER IMPERATIVE”, saving Italy from destruction. F.I.S.T. technocrats save the near-dead Slade and rebuild him with the most futuristic limb/organ cloning and cyborg technology known in the year 1976! Now equipped with his Atomic-Steeloidinium Cyborgarm, and other improvements, Dan Slade is… The STEEL F.I.S.T.!

I'm a bohemian, freelance fine artist/illustrator/multimedia designer stubborn ape-man. comic book illustrator and /filmmaker/animator/ in the past and for long-term ambitions. I like to cook. 'Tend to be more of a Coffee house type. Art & film fan: I dig experimental & highbrow while gobbling up the guilty pleasures of underground and lowbrow. Basically I'm a crazy Sicilian/Puerto Rican-artist-Geek!
For my whole life I've been an artist. No weekend warrior- every day. I don't like the so-called "real world"; I feel much better off for being either in collision with it or via creativity, providing my tiny fraction of an alternative to it's grind. Art and creativity, dreams and stories- all that is the only bulwark against the dehumanization of the stuff that can get us down and ground up- so I plan on being part of making the former.
Art=action=alternatives. Nuff said.
Currently, I am producing art in preparation of the release of a webcomic with creative partner/friend, Bill Woodcock, Jr. This Graphic Novel in serialized form called HOLLIDAY.
Greg! Great job!
Now I might have to pull out one of my public domain characters that I have on the shelf!
Yeah, that’s rad. Good work, man.
OMG! O.M.G! I wanna write this guy! This is one of the COOLEST ideas I’ve seen EVER! PLEASE don’t just leave this for the contest!!!!
Jet Harpies, Nice! Way to go. This guy reminds me of Matt Trasker of “M.A.S.K.” in a good way.
Sexy. I likey. You might see a Mystery Man or two…hee 🙂
WOW thanks for the good word, guys! Characters like “Dan Slade, The STEEL F.I.S.T.” will NOT fall into obscurity. I think tomorrow I’ll draw Director Golgotha or a Jet Harpy.
