Comic Book Concepts and Requests

I've always been a fan of comics.  If you are into User Experience or Usability Design and you've never seen the discussions on Jim Steranko (comic artist)'s work and how it applies to and should be used for UX and UI work ... you really need to, it's an amazing and mind blowing realization on content compression and visual design.
 
In fact they now actually teach classes on how the comic design medium can teach us visual interaction and UX design... and as a quick media for practice, it's good as it takes you through the paces from pencils to colors.  Since I do them anyway, I get requests from people in video games and other places from time to time to help visualize characters they've created in MMOs. 
 
So I drop all of that in here... just for fun.
