Legend of Billy: Wannabe Kid Barbarian! (An LoB KID tale for print anthology!)

by David Reddick on May 16th, 2010
Posted In: blog

I’ve completed a 2-page comic book story “Legend of Billy: Wannabe Kid Barbarian”, (with excellent colors by LoB colorist Don Kuehn) with Billy and Franky as kids for an anthology that will be published in book and e-book form called “Reading With Pictures,” showing kids the benefit of using comics to read, and featuring some top comics talent… here’s a sneek peek INKED/COLORED panel from it…more to come!! And check out the link, as the book can be purchased at this SITE!

P.S. Sidenote: This is actually in keeping with LoB canon…. Bill and Frank knew each other as kids, (which we will explore within these hollowed web-walls one day) and keep in mind dragon’s live VERY long lives, and Frank essentially has remained unaged compared to Bill as a kid. ;-)

I’ve been working on a 2-page comic book story “Legend of Billy: Wannabe Kid Barbarian”, (with excellent colors by Don) with Billy and Franky as kids for an anthology that will be published in book and e-book form called “Reading With Pictures,” showing kids the benefit of using comics to read, and featuring some top talent mainly from the print comics publishing industry, so you can imagine my joy to be involved as a webcomics creator… here’s a sneek peek drawing from it…more to come!!

Guest strip by Wes Molebash of Max vs. Max!

Today’s special guest strip is by one of my favorite cartoonists out there, Wes Molebash, of “Max vs. Max!” You’ll also know his work from his previous excellent webcomic, “You’ll Have That.” A BIG hearty thanks to Wes for this hilarious guest strip (with colors by our very own on Kuehn) featuring our favorite gypsy, and check out his work before the day is through!

I will return to the fold this coming Monday, May 17th, and it’s more gypsy goodness, and some interesting revelations about Bill, and what’s going on… Don’t miss it! Sketchblog updates daily!

Special guest strip by Kevin Vassey, Dreamworks animator on “How To Train Your Dragon!”

I have a very special treat for you today, my friends! My pal Kevin Vassey, a supervising animator at Dreamworks on “How To Train Your Dragon,” among lots of other fantastic projects has drawn a guest strip for today’s Legend of Bill! This strip was also colored by our very own wizard of color, Don Kuehn! Thanks, Don, as ALWAYS! I LOVE Kevin’s take on Sir Lance continuing the chase after Princess Gina. Obviously, he’s not the smartest knight out there… and I DIG Kevin’s continuance of background fun… (see the moose? lol) THANK YOU, Kevin! What a day! Kevin Vassey guest strip and Larry Elmore fan art! WOOT! Where’s the coolest place to hang out? Legend of Bill, that’s where!! Thanks, team!!

next episode: WES MOLEBASH drops by with an awesome guest strip featuring the GYPSY for us!! Then, I’m back at the helm after some travel and pressing things that took some time of mine, where we’ll return to the gypsy and her revelations. be prepared to learn a lot more about Bill the next 5-6 strips than you have learned thus far! And P.S. We WILL name that darn horse!

P.S.  Thanks for your patience in waiting on this… I was traveling all day yesterday, and did not get a chance to get it uploaded properly, (or Sunday night – no internet where I was) and when I got home, internet service is out (modem issue), so bammo – YIKES! What a day) So, thank you!!
