Boo's Elephantmen 'Wartoys' covers...

[wampa]

hi folks!

should anyone fancy a sneaky peek at my latest stuff for Image , you can check it here :

http://www.comicraft.com/clients/EMwartoys01_03.jpg

it's for a 3 part off-shoot from the main title , relating the as yet unseen 'war years'-- anyone unfamiliar with the world of Elephantmen/Hipflask can get good brainstuff at www.hipflask.com too!

in my humble opinion , Elephantmen is a superb comic, with a very '2000AD' feel/sentiment , and is infact written and put together by AD veteran Richard Starkings - can you dig it? CAAAN YOOUUUUUU DIIIG IIIIIIT?

also i can confirm that as of issue #12 of Elephantmen 'proper' , i shall be taking over from the exceptionally  mighty Mr.Ladronn as cover artist,leaving him more time to concentrate on the Hipflask strip...

needless to say , i've been doing my little dance ; )

cheers!

boo.

..It is indeed!

I framed that print pretty much as soon as I got it- it's pirched on top of the paint cupboard in my 'box' studio ATM.

I need to borrow a drill from work to hang it properly.

Cheers

Funny story. I've been meaning to look into Hip Flash/Elephant Men, as they look to be up my ally. The Boo Cook covers on the Wartoys miniseries have pushed me to finally check it out.

I have seen these Comic book characters advertised at a comic convention a few years back when I had brought this cheap locally made comic called 'KillerRoo'. About some animorphic Kangaroo action hero.

Set in parts of Austalia.

 I got the first two issues, not really knowing about it or seeing more of them in the comic book stores.

In the first issue, some Australians may recognise parts of the inner city of Sydney. The elevated freeway road running through Bondi Junction, Kings Cross, etc.

Thats what I like about it. You recognise thses places.

Anyway, their all based on animals acting like people, in these comics. Killer Roo is a Kanga-Man living and working amongst humans. He knows how to scrap, hold his own.


Now what If these Boys got together. The elephant, the Rhino and the Roo. Of course it's not hard to assume would win at a wrestling contest. Theyd o have the advantage of size, and build, but Killeroo would be a better Boxer. Not that thier real life animal cousins bother each, prey on each other out in the wilds.
