Harvey Pekar - 04/12/09

Smith Magazine recently did this pretty cool tribute to comics madman, Harvey Pekar by getting 70 Cartoonists to do 70 different portraits for his 70 birthday. I was checking them out last night and got excited. I wasn't one of the cartoonists asked to contribute (my prolonged exile while I've been working on my book means I've dropped of the face of the cartoon earth). And I figured, just because I wasn't asked, doesn't mean I can't contribute. So, I snatched some reference from the internet (there's a limited amount so you can see what reference almost everyone worked from; some with better results than others), and this is what I came up with.

Speaking of my own book, 4 pages to go, 306 done. Lots of coloring still left to do, but that's the easy part.

Now off to bed and a rare lie in Saturday morning...
