Kathleen probably predicted this centuries ago. How long could I resist my Marvel Zombie brainwashing..? Well, 4 days I guess...

But -- Oh, the humanity! I had such high hopes for this one, and so much went wrong! What possessed me to attempt such a difficult character so early in my Wacom tablet boot camp? I'm still having a lot of coordination problems, obviously. The webbing was a real challenge, and the head just kept coming out melon-shaped, so eventually I just went with it. It may be that I am permanently on the path of further cartoon abstraction, since this isn't anything close to what Stan Lee & John Buscema taught me all those years ago in "How To Draw Comics the Marvel Way"... I think James Kochalka, Brian Ralph and the rest have had an irreparable effect on my style. Hmmm... well I guess I can live with that.
