Shawn Surface Takes On Jack Carter
Today we have Sly as Jack Carter drawn by Shawn Surface. The scan doesn’t nearly come close to doing this piece justice.
Shawn is an all-around nice guy and his art should be getting more attention.

Ken Meyer, Jr.’s Ink Stains 3: Steranko, Cockrum, Fujitake, Smith and More!
If you’re a fan of fanzines, then you’ve got to check out Ken Meyer, Jr.’s monthly column Ink Stains. Each month Ken (who is an amazing artist) posts… well, let’s let Ken explain…
I have a collection of over 200 fanzines from the 60’s-80’s that I plan to scan and talk about, one at a time. I hope to have some of the participants answer a few questions. Many of those participants are established comics professionals now, while some have gone on to other things. I will show a few snippets from each zine and give you a link to download a pdf of the whole thing, which I hope all of you will do!
For Ink Stains 3, Ken took a look at Fantastic Fanzine #10 from 1969 published by Gary Groth (who later went on to publish the long-running month magazine, The Comics Journal) and Alan Light (who later went on to publish the long-running weekly newspaper the Comic Buyers Guide). The issue featured an Jim Steranko / Joe Sinnot cover as well as art by Dave Cockrum, Barry Smith, Bill Everett, Bill Black and Dennis Fujitake. That’s Fujutake’s splash posted above. I always like DF’s work and wished there was more around!
All, the glory days of fanzines. Thanks to Ken Meyer, Jr. for making these available!

Peter Simeti had 5 Minutes to Draw “First Blood”
Peter Simeti is a writer, artist and publisher. Peter is the founder of Alterna Comics as well as the writer of The Chair.
Peter is active on Twitter and one night I saw he was offering 5 minute sketch cards. I jumped on board for a couple. Jack Carter was the first and Rambo was the second. My guess is the future will hold more.
Yakuza Demon Killers Are Coming!
Yakuza Demon Killers by Amit Chauhan and Eli Powell might be worth a look. I like Powell’s art and who doesn’t like the idea of Yakuza Demon Killers?
