Remember Whens-Day: Captain America by Adam Hughes

The second piece in my Golden Age sketchbook: This gorgeous portrait of Captain America by Adam Hughes.

Remember Whens-Day: Alan Scott by Mart Nodell

Now that I've gotten up-to-date with posting my Musical Sketchbook collection, I'm now going to start sharing scans from the other sketchbook I've been keeping over the years...a sketchbook devoted to Golden Age characters.

I started this collection back in 1992, when Martin Nodell was a guest at a local convention. After all, when you have a legend of the Golden Age attending, you can't miss an opportunity like that. I'm honored to have had him get the book off to such a beautiful start.

More Golden Age goodness to come!

Musical Monday: Jimmy Olsen Sings Simon & Garfunkel

And now, my most recent acquisition, from this year's Dragon*Con...Karl Kesel's fantastic portrait of Jimmy Olsen living out a line from Simon & Garfunkel's "America."

And that brings us up to date on my musical sketchbook...but it's not the end of my sketch collection. I've also been keeping a second sketchbook with a separate theme, and I'll start sharing those sketches next time around. The theme of this collection? Well, I'll keep you in suspense for a little while, but I'll drop a hint with a Firesign Theatre quote:

"Forward...into the past!"
