There was certainly a diminishment of quality after the first two seasons. However, I recall preferring season 4 to 3. The momentum has definitely dissipated, but perhaps the longer hiatus will result in a better production. I'll check it out.

I loved that series, particularly the two issues that were reproduced from Ploog's tonal pencils.

Eugh! Nice, but gross.

Great shirt, but I'm even more amazed by the Ploog POTA original on the wall! Fantastic!

Thanks,

Inktober Day 29: Our final tribute to the 50th anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. This time it's the mad scientist who sets the entire adventure in motion, Frank-N-Furter, as portrayed by the flamboyant Tim Curry. Plus a bonus art test featuring Frank as the subject.

Dan Barry was brilliant. I have a nice collection of his Flash stuff and it was as good as any of the great adventure strip art.

Lazy bastards.

Wow. I'm such a Frankenstein fan I can't believe I've never seen these before. Terrific!

Yeah, if it were handled by Adobe you'd have to pay every month of your long, long life.

Is this legit, or is it AI trickery?

I usually finish a fair chunk of the work before October, @ctempleart.bsky.social That may not be strictly within the spirit of Inktober, but that's my way. It lets me complete more finished and detailed pieces. Even if you only do a few drawings, you should be proud of what you've accomplished.

Inktober Day 27: My final Superhero Hot Rod for this year. The Iron Maniac! Brush and ink on Strathmore Bristol. 12x12 inches.

I didn't care for the remake, which substitutes comedic excess for creeping horror. The original, though uneven, has moments of true brilliance, and lingers in the back of your mind. Well, my mind, anyway. Not for everyone certainly, but I love it.

Unfortunately, cool as it was, the damn thing was only ever working about 15% of the time. The maintenance costs must have been insane. The empty hall is very intimidating, however.

I agree, JL. Aparo had a real feel for the creepy stuff, like Phantom Stranger and The Spectre. He injected a little of that quality into his Batman work.

Aparo was 'my' Batman artist. One of the best to ever draw him, though there have been many great ones.

Inktober Day 26: A double shot of Dutch, the hero and last man standing of Predator. He must become a canny caveman to battle the outworld menace of the Predator. Played by the highly imitable Arnold Schwarzenegger. Brush and ink on Strathmore mixed media paper. 6x8 inches.

Inktober Day 25: In honour of the 50th anniversary of Rocky Horror Picture Show I'm speculating on what the characters of a Rocky Cartoon Show might look like. Next up is The Criminologist, who narrates the sad, sordid tale. Digital inks and colours.

Nice stuff, Adrian, and nice to see someone working with traditional media.

Thanks for the boost, @glaeken.bsky.social
