I know it was just last week that I skipped out on The Devil & Mr. Gandhi, but life is what it is, and I can’t always stay up late making comics for you people, so give me a break! Anyway, since I can’t draw the Devil for you, I thought I would show you two awesome examples of devilishly good art. The first is awesome art of the stars of our show, made by Adam Pilkington. I told this story for episode 1, but here it is again: Adam was celebrating his X,000th follower and awarded me by offering to draw me something. I told him that I was considering resurrecting The Devil & Mr. Gandhi and maybe his art would jump-start the rebirth. And it worked! If this webcomic goes anywhere, it will owe a debt of gratitude and inspiration to Adam.
You can catch Adam’s stuff at http://www.crosstowncomic.com and follow him at @Giantplaidmonk.
As for the second depiction of The Devil. In a bit of “paying it forward” I awarded Kyle Ferrin, a Twitter follower of @DevilandGandhi, an art commission. I told him to draw the Devil, no holds barred, no strings attached. I did request that he be in a suit, however. Here is what he sent me.
Pretty awesome, right? Reminds me of the art of Mike Mignola. You can catch Kyle’s work at http://kyleferrin.tumblr.com/ and follow him on Twitter at @d20plusmodifier. Thanks, Kyle!
Have a great weekend, everybody!
