Apparently, the fellow who is the illustrator for Rex Morgan has had a long, incredibly cool history of drawing for Marvel comics — lots of superheroes and the like — in addition to doing a stint for the Sunday Phantom and now, Rex Morgan. Not that his dailies are bad, but on occasion, a characterization is captured with vitality and charm.
Here’s a panel from the 11 October 2008 Rex Morgan, with the two old farts Lenore and Tweaks railing at each other like teenagers (kind of like Amos and Edda in 9 Chickweed Lane), while Rex looks on, just a little less than mortified.
Beautiful drawing — the hand, the expression, everything.
That being said, I have to mess with it a little.
And then, I have to mess with it a lot. But FABULOUS work, Mr. Nolan! I wish I could’ve bid on some of your panels for the Turkey Shoot Regatta.
