A New (Old) “Cobra” Watercolor by Thomas Boatwright!
This is the first Cobra piece I ever received from Thomas Boatwright . He did it for me several years ago, but somehow I missed scanning and getting it posted.
Over the years I’ve gotten several Stallone pieces from Thomas. Click on the link to see what has been posted so far… there are more to come.
If you’d like to see more of Thomas Boatwright’s art check out his blog and his DA site. Send him some love.
If you get commissions, you should consider a piece from Thomas. He keeps you totally in the loop on his progress, finishes his commissions on or ahead of schedule, has very reasonable prices, is a fantastic artist and always gives you more than you’re expecting! – Craig
A New “Equalizer 2” Poster is Here!
I liked the first Equalizer film and think it was under-rated. I’m glad we’re going to see a sequel. You can see a much larger version of the poster here.
Giovanni Valletta’s John Wick / Walking Dead Mash-Up!
Giovanni Valletta’s John Wick homage to the cover of The Walking Dead #1 is genius. I love how the zombie reflections in the windows have been replaced by police officers.

“We’re going to get back to Frank Castle with a handgun and a knife, stalking the streets of New York, and getting his hands dirty. But we’re also going to see a man who has changed from his time in the armor,” said Rosenberg. “He developed a taste for bigger game and larger targets, and he’s not going to give that up easily. So in a sense it’s back to basics – but on a bigger scale.”

The “Gotti” Trailer and Poster!
I first saw the Gotti trailer a couple of days ago and thought that’s interesting. Funny thing is, the trailer stayed on my mind and the more I thought about it, the more I liked the idea of seeing Travolta playing John Gotti.
So what do youse think? Winna or Get-Outa-Here?
The “Evil Genius” Trailer is Here!
Check out the trailer for Evil Genius.
Kind of pulls you in, huh? It sure did for me.
Of course I’m old enough to remember the case. Bank robber becomes surrounded by cops while trying to make his escape. He tells the cops that he was kidnapped and the kidnappers placed the device around his neck. It is a bomb set to blow his head off if he doesn’t rob the bank. Although cops are skeptical, they keep their distance. Guy begs for help… As cops work out what to do, the bomb goes off killing the guy.
Who was behind this? Was the guy kidnapped or part of the robbery gone wrong? I guess we’ll find out if we tune in. I know I will.

Once a week Joblo.com posts Awesome Art We’ve Found Around the Net. As you can imagine, they post awesome art that they, well, you get the idea.
I always enjoy seeing what JoBlo has found because with each post they list the artist’s name and a link to more of his/her art. That’s where I saw this Assault on Precinct 13 (by Martin Ansin) poster.

Ace Atkins Talks Crossroad Blues and a Lot More!
Ace Atkins is a Pulitzer Prize-nominated novelist who has written 23 novels. Perhaps best known for being selected to carry on Robert B. Parker’s Spenser series, Atkins has series characters of his own (Nick Travers and Quinn Colson). If you dig his Spenser yarns, then you ought to give Travers and Colson a go.
Crossroad Blues is Atkins first Nick Travers novel.
The disappearance of a college professor investigating rumors of previously unknown recordings by renowned blues musician Robert Johnson, murdered more than fifty years earlier, leads football player-turned-blues historian Nick Travers along a dangerous trail as he seeks to unravel the dark truths behind an old mystery.
Crossroad Blues has been adapted into a graphic novel by Atkins along with artist Marco Finnegan.
“Thrillkill” by Jim Stenstrum and Neal Adams!
If you’re not familiar with Thrillkill by Jim Stenstrum and Neal Adams, you’re in for a real treat. Originally published in Creepy #75, by Warren in November 1975,
Thrillkill is one of Neal Adams’ most beautifully illustrated stories and Stenstrum was ahead of the times looking at mass murders. (You have to remember that they were almost unheard of in 1975. These days, they happen regularly.)
Click over to The Bristol Board to see the full Thrillkill story in a format that’s easy to read.
The “Equalizer 2” Poster and Trailer are Here!
The Equalizer 2 poster and trailer are here… and I like ’em. Of course I liked the first Equalizer movie, so maybe this isn’t big news. I do hope that all of the major action pieces weren’t shown in the trailer.
