A Sunday Batch of Old Drawings

It's Sunday morning and I felt like picking out a batch of my pinups that I maybe forgot existed.

Muffin Top


I had the great pleasure of stumbling upon Abe Snake's Muffin Top Saturday Morning Adult Comics. I'm pretty sure it was by way of Instagram, then I ordered issues 1 and 2 direct from Abe. Got them in the mail, signed, and love 'em.

First vibe: Birdland. There's some strong Hernandez energy in these pages. Clean art, lean and mean, black and white, strong and confident use of lines and shadow. Very nice. Focus is on these plump lead characters, but he mixes it up with characters of different sizes and shapes.

I've only read issue 1 and 2. The story is about these characters who run a bakery and are using alien stuff in the frosting. I'll leave it there... you can read it for yourself.

I love that. Highly recommended.

Note: This is 100% sex comic. Not for kids. Horny as fuck. Get yourself a copy now.

Cavewoman!

Cavewoman is a comic book character created by Bud Root, first appearing in 1993. She has appeared in many comic books since and has been drawing not only by Bud Root but also, officially, by Devon Massey, Frank Cho, Art Adams, and Rob Durham.

I think I saw a Cavewoman image long ago in some comic advertisement or perhaps in a catalog. I can't remember. At the time I just thought "oh another bad girl/good girl comic*". And yeah. She was. And that's fine. It just felt like the 90s had a glut of them. I stuck up my nose... meanwhile I was drawing erotic comics and reading Birdland. Go figure.

Here's the thing about Cavewoman: I don't have any idea who this character really is. I have never read an entire Cavewoman comic. Who reads them?? I just love the art. I really, really enjoy the look of this character. What's not to like, right?

My preference is for Bud Root's art of the character, but Massey isn't bad. And of course Cho and Adams are quite well-known. I'm not as familiar with Rob Durham. 




Some Devon Massey Cavewoman art:






*You know... I just realized I skipped the entire 90s comics scene so hard I don't even know the difference between "good girl" and "bad girl" comics. Let's do a quick search and learn...

Huh. So good girl art refers to classic pinup style and sexy comics art. Bad girl art is... also that, but the characters are not supposed to be "good". I guess. Cavewoman is good girl because she's not trying to be voluptuous or evil, while Vampirella is a bad girl because she is voluptuous and evil. Or something like that.
