Above is the opening page to Issue #2. If you're new to Peck, go ahead and <a href="http://my.starstream.net/mestioko/peck_01.html" target="_blank">recap issue #1 here</a>. Remember from the previous installment: Dent was found by Cornelius Bacon in the Sactown dump, broken and plagued with amnesia. Short of a full restoration of memory, Bacon and Billy (his teddy bear) are able to nurse Dent back to relative health. But they know there's more beneath the surface of this soft-spoken one-armed transient. In this issue, Bacon continues to unfold the mysteries that explain Dent's past. He also reveals the tipping point at which Dent—a mild-mannered waste management engineer by day—becomes a wraith-like crime fighter by night …</div>

Wow, I totally thought this image was lost to the ages. I recently resurrected my old Powerbook and while rummaging through the drive, I found a small folder of Peck images.

Cornelius is the Master of Gar Bag Do (in kanji it is traditionally called "Cando" or Way of the Can). This martial art involves becoming one with the discarded, using it to one's advantage when required to defend oneself in battle. It also gives Bacon the uncanny ability to speak and/or emerge from any can or receptacle in the city. This comes in handy when he needs to communicate with Dent/Peck. </div>

<b>Cornelius Bacon</b> is the unlikely mentor of the Dent (aka Peck). A highly educated man, Bacon attended Oxford and Harvard, securing doctorates in Eastern Studies, Philosophy, Literature, Linguistics, Physics, Chemistry, and PE. He traveled the world extensively for two decades, but spent the majority of the time in a Tibetan monastery. Eventually he found his way back to America, securing employment at an obscure state college known as Sactown University. He retired from SU when his obsessive pursuit of Gar Bag Do (<i>the Way of the Can</i>) began to overtake his academic career. He currently works and resides in the Sactown Landfill with his teddy bear confidant, Billy Trudare.</div>mestiokohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02306044131625207756noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1390218284558236621.post-3321730803591893782012-05-25T08:21:00.002-07:002012-05-25T08:24:48.588-07:00baby sketch<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Here's a 30-second Peck sketch on a 2x2 inch post-it—I call them "baby sketches." It's interesting how quick thumbnails can have so much energy. And sometimes the enlarged, finished versions lose some of that soul in the transition.</div>

Okay, I'm feeling a bit sheepish about this. I'm commencing with Issue #2. Again. Only after a mere four year break. I won't bore you with excuses, but I can account for at least one year of delinquency: I was editing and contributing to a cool anthology graphic novel known as <a href="http://yarnscomics.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Yarns</a> and recrafting a single-panel cartoon called <a href="http://incompatiblescomics.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Incompatibles</a>. But I digress. This post is about Peck!</div>

Above is the opening page to Issue #2. If you're new to Peck, go ahead and <a href="http://my.starstream.net/mestioko/peck_01.html" target="_blank">recap issue #1 here</a>. Remember from the previous installment: Dent was found by Cornelius Bacon in the Sactown dump, broken and plagued with amnesia. Short of a full restoration of memory, Bacon and Billy (his teddy bear) are able to nurse Dent back to relative health. But they know there's more beneath the surface of this soft-spoken one-armed transient. In this issue, Bacon continues to unfold the mysteries that explain Dent's past. He also reveals the tipping point at which Dent—a mild-mannered waste management engineer by day—becomes a wraith-like crime fighter by night …</div>

One of my favorite influences is the German caricaturist Heinrich Kley. His work was just so dynamic and free. It's amazing what he could do with a line. If I can bring an inkling of the energy he brought to his drawings, I'd be satisfied. Check out some of his work <a href="http://www.heinrich-kley.com/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>

It's been fun editing the pub and gathering the friends for this endeavor. The reception for the show is on May 2nd, 6pm–8pm in the University Union Gallery.

Arg. But then Saturday comes along and the book starts jumping off the table. My inner voice comes back a second time, but this time says: “Heck yes!” Peck sold well in Artist Alley and it was so exhilarating to finally get this book out to the public. My table buddy, Mark Machmann, and I learned plenty at our first WC (at least the first time being on the other side of the table). All the exhibitors we spoke with were so nice and helpful. I'm definitely going to do this Con again next year.
