Tracie Mauk made the mistake of being a really good artist that follows me on Twitter. I became an instant fan of her ability to capture the essence of established characters while still maintaining her own style. You can see what I’m talking about on her DeviantArt page and in an upcoming Agreeable Comics project that I’m writing! (Yes, that’s another announcement, kind of.)
And if you’re wondering what Kirby cover inspired this, here you go:




I like the somewhat meta aspect of having Lydia swinging the cover that inspired the pin-up! Very well done…
Pretty GOSH DARN cute and amazing!
Thanks so much! Loved your Nightcrawler story in GIRL COMICS, by the by.
Should have had the tag line: “If this be Wednesday!”
Thanks for saying what Tracie’s pinup should have had, “Shorb!” That’s helpful!
I was actually going to have it say “If this be THE RACK.” but it was Sunday night and I really wanted to sleep. I rationalized that it was “inspired by” rather than a complete homage and also I was doing it for free so nuts to that.
