Here's a video of my comic book work for Jim Shooter's Valiant Comics. When I was at the Toronto Comicon last weekend, I stopped by one vendor and he asked if I was looking for anything. Taken by surprise, I blurred out, "you have any Nintendo Comics?" He said, "no, but he wished he had, because they were valuable" WTH? It seems some of the Valiant Nintendo and Captain N comics I do pages for are modestly collectible. (Worth more than Image Comic Wildcats#1 - LOL)

Magus Robot Hunter Valiant Comics Party Flyer
Back in April I posted a Dragonfly Flipz Book video on Youtube of a Valiant Comic Magus the Robot Fighter flip book I made form a unused video promo. I mentioned it was based on a Christmas party invitation Valiant had sent me. Well, I found it in my old files and thought I share it here. The original art by Art Nichols, one of Valiant's core artist.
You can click on the images for a supersized closeup. Enjoy.

Magus Robot Fighter - Valiant Comic Promo
Here's another ancient item from my unseen art archives. It's something for all the Valiant Comic fans. This is Promo I did for a presentation to Valiant Comics, back in 1992(?).
Valiant Comic was a company started by Jim Shooter after leaving Marvel Comics. Valiant was a going great guns for awhile, then internal problems and a shift in the comic business cause it to crash and burn. It featured a good mix or updated chassic Gold Key Comic characters from the 1950's and '60's, like Magus the Robot Fighter, Doctor Solar, and Turok, Dinosaur Hunter and an interesting line-up of original properties, Eternal Warrior, X-O Man of War, Bloodshot, Harbingers and others. Turok actually have several video games made from it.
This short promo was done on an Amiga 2000 computer with the old Deluxe Paint animation program. The original art by Art Nichols (fist smashing through the robot head) was drawing from a Valiant party announcement. I added the beginning and inbetween action art and ending. It's crude by todays standards, but still fun.
Enjoy.
