The Thing and Space Ghost
I used the more comedic talk show version of Space Ghost for my Batman team-up, so I was glad to get the chance to offer a straight team-up here. This cover took a long time because there was a lot of fixing up to do to the background in order to eliminate the other members of the Fantastic Four and that were on the original paperback cover and make room for Space Ghost. I haven't heard much from Space Ghost as a property lately, and I hope that changes soon in the form of a comic, animated show or dare I say live action adaptation... He's just too cool looking a character to rest in limbo.
Okay, now, THAT'S cool!
ReplyDeleteAlex Ross' Space Ghost mini-series was okay. Probably a little to serious for it's own good, but the covers and the art were pretty good...at least it was pretty to look at...
ReplyDeletepretty cool...but why didn't you use the hanna-barbera design for the thing?
ReplyDeleteThe design is too minimalistic and didn't mesh well.
ReplyDelete@kathy and dave: you want some great classic space ghost, look at the Steve Rude one-shot form Comico!
