The Comic Art Alliance is an art club created by Jess Kirby and Michael Powell. Every week we have a different art prompt, and anyone can participate. Simply email us at comicartalliance@gmail.com, and we will add you as an author. Then you can start posting your art to the blog. Entries can be in any medium, full finished drawings or sketches. All we ask is that it be on topic. Well, what are you waiting for? Let's draw!

The Beacon News
We want to congratulate Byron Wilkins on this great interview, he deserves it, he's a great artist and is always willing to help others. Unfortunately the article made a mistake and put in the Comic Art Alliance instead of the Webcomic Alliance. http://beaconnews.suntimes.com/lifestyles/23050658-423/blog-log-byron-wilkins-the-comic-art-alliance.html
Here is a link to the Webcomic Alliance http://www.webcomicalliance.com/ There you will also find his fun comic 1977.

Son of Satan
It's October already? This month let's stick with the Halloween theme and do any horror themed characters that you'd like and post as often as you want. If you're wanting to post and need permission, just drop us a line.
I'll get it started with my Son of Satan scribble. This is ink, marker and photoshop filter (plastic wrap).

Westerns
Kind of a generic western scene, just trying to get caught up. Charcoal on newsprint and crappy camera phone.
Teen Titans Wonder Girl
Dragon's Lair
Charcoal/chalk on newsprint. I don't remember much about Dragon's Lair other than I was horrible at the video game and in the cartoon he always made the goofiest faces.
Sinestro
Sinestro in charcoal. Sorry for the crappy photo, charcoal doesn't mix well with a scanner so this is via my camera on my phone.

Mephisto
Sorta Double dipped on this due to lack of time for the July theme's so here goes "M" is for Mephisto who happens to be magical and for the triple dip though not necessarily showcased here he has a heck of a cape.
And you can check out some of my other not always comic work along with other interesting tidbits from both myself and my wife at Off the Wall Design

Felix Faust
Felix Faust for character with magic powers. I ran out of gas with this one. The stupid blue pencil kept breaking so I threw in the towel. Also my dirty scanner gave Felix a beauty mark. It's a nice little touch.

Launchpad McQuack
Did anyone else wonder why a duck would need to fly a plane? I gave him duck lips because I believe he would be the one to make such a face while taking a selfie. Copic marker on newsprint.

Danger Mouse ala Hanna-Barbera Style
So, what if Danger Mouse had been created by Hanna-Barbera? This is what he'd look like more than likely. This is my submission for Heroes with letters on their chests. And who better than good ol'd DM? Yeah, baby...

Week of June 9-15 Any comic book character that has a letter on their chest.
Week of June 16-22 Any comic book character that can fly. Weeeee!
Week of June 23-29 Any character with a sword. YAAAAAAAA!
Aquaman
Aquaman swimming, imagine that. This is black sumi ink outlines and Dick Blick markers, which I obviously don't recommend. They don't blend very well.
Black Widow
Black Widow, a little old school, a little new school. Black sumi ink, Windsor Newton drawing ink on recycled Bristol.
