A New Swing at Tarzan
Very cool.
Thanks and a big “Ungawa” to @MikeZeck for the heads-up.

Alexis Ziritt and Rambo
Alexis Ziritt makes his first appearance in my Stallone Theme Sketch Collection. Alexis is the co-founder of Fistful Apparel and the indie comics co-op Calavera Comics. When I saw that Alexis was taking sketch card commissions, I decided to get on board for a couple. I asked Alexis to pick two from Jack Carter, John Rambo and Cobra. Alexis liked the theme and decided to do all three.
Looking Forward to a “Red Dawn”
I am really looking forward to Red Dawn… much more than I thought I would when the remake was announced.
Jesse Munoz: Jack Carter – No Shades of Gray
Jesse Munoz makes a return appearance in my Stallone Theme Sketch Collection. Big thanks to Jesse for his excellent take on Sly as Jack Carter and for the quick response time. Not only did Jesse provide me with this black and white version but also this grayscale version as well. Jesse is a great choice if you collect sketches!
You can see more of Jesse’s art.
Stallone to Helm Hunter
Bloody Disgusting has reported that…
- Stallone and Lionsgate have inked up a deal to fast track Hunter for 2014 release date. Stallone is set to star, write and direct, which will be filmed in 3-D.
I really hope this pans out. Hunter was written by James Byron Huggins specifically with Sly in mind. It’s an awesome book that will translate into a very cool movie.
- “A beast is loose somewhere north of the Arctic Circle. It has already decimated a secret research facility and annihilated a squad of elite military guards. And the raging creature is headed south toward civilization, ready to wreak bloody devastation. It is a job Hunter cannot turn down, but he soon discovers that his prey is terror incarnate, a half-human abomination created by a renegade agency through a series of outlawed genetic experiments. It has man’s cunning, a predator’s savageness, and a prehistoric power that has transcended the ages.”
Let’s hope everything lines up and Hunter gets made with Stallone at the helm.
Killing Them Softly
I like this poster for Killing Them Softly. My only quibble would be that it reminds me of a poster for a war movie more than a gritty crime drama.
I hope that Killing Them Softly lives up to advance reviews since I’m looking forward to seeing this in a theater.
Moreno’s “Bullet to the Head” Poster
SZoner, Gerardo Moreno is back with his version of how a new Bullet to the Head movie poster could look. I’ve always enjoyed Gerardo’s Stallone art, and I seem to say this with each new piece, but this may be his best one ever. To see more of his art, click here.
Boatwright & the Strange Kids Club
Since we were talking about Thomas Boatwright and his art yesterday, I wanted to remind you that he has a new 32 page Bride of Frankenstein sketchbook and that there could be a third Zeke Deadwood comic in our future.
Boatwright & Carter’s Explosive Return
Thomas Boatwright makes an explosive return with Jack Carter!
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
RIP Tony Scott
Tony Scott died yesterday at the age of 68. It has been reported that Mr. Scott had inoperable brain cancer and that was the reason he committed suicide by jumping from a bridge.
Tony Scott became a name director with Top Gun and then went on to direct hit after hit including: Beverly Hills Cop II, Revenge [under-rated!], Days of Thunder, The Last Boy Scout, True Romance, Crimson Tide and Man on Fire.
RIP Tony Scott. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family, friends and fans.
Mike Torrance Takes Aim at Jack Carter
Mike Torrance aka The Krayola Kidd may have done more Jack Carter drawings than anyone else in my collection. Perhaps he enjoys drawing the character as much as I do getting the pieces.
You can see more of Mike’s art at The Daily Sketch with The Krayola Kidd (and if you’ve never checked out Mike’s site, you ought to if only to see his Walking Dead cards!) and his Deviant Art site. Mike is available for commissions and his prices are very reasonable.
