Yours truly has been out of town (and away from castle rogue evolent) for the past three days so I will "ease back" into the posting regimen with a couple of simple (or rather, simply wonderful) SHANE postcards.
The pic above is of course everyone's beloved "MONSTER." What I love about this "take" on Mary Shelly's/James Whale's vision is that "Frankie" is not colored his usual green. The grey/gray hue is much preferred by me. I remember when Marvel Comics launched their (first) Monster of Frankenstein book (circa 1973) which I think was drawn by Mike Ploog. The Monster was colored gray. I liked that. I also like it where Shane gives our animated cadaver the pointy half-orange-slice ears. :)
Here Mr. Jones gives us a fun werewolf howling at the..... well, at that big yellow orb in the background. I love his lips coming together in an "ahh-woooo" trumpet mouthpiece configuration (good eye for cartoonish icons). I also like the simple x hash-marks for wolfie's two eyes. Simple and smile-inducing.
