Here's more nearly forgotten artwork that I happened upon recently:
It's the Ultimate Hero (and Gary) by Ruben Cordero! A little while after our "Eye of the Beholder" comic came out in Strip Search, Ruben and I teamed up with co-creator Mike Adams to put a treatment for this character together. Unfortunately, not too much has happened with these characters in the meantime, though I still have hope that one day the full story might get told. A short story appeared in the back of Teddy and the Yeti #3, and I've got two more short stories hanging out on my hard drive (one a glorious five-page story by Duane Redhead). I don't have any immediate plans for them, but they might just show up in a future issue of T&Y.
Below you see the inked version by Todd Swain. Mike colored it, but we ended up going with a different color scheme in the end, so if this were to be used in some capacity in the future, it'd have to be redone. Perhaps that's wishful thinking, but perhaps not.

WOW! I haven't seen this in a long time. I actually forgot about this piece. Thanks for posting it. It brings back some good memories..

I almost forgot about it myself until I dug through some artwork that I hadn't looked at for a while. It looks great and I hope to be able to use it in a book before too long!
