Avengers April Black Knight Inks...

Here's the finished sketch. My wife thinks I spend waaaay too much time on this blog. As usual, she's completely right. I'm glad, because it's so comfortable for me to say that. I consider it a testament to how happily married I am, heh. So periodically I'll be breaking these character sketches into two days. I know that throws off my month of 30 characters. Still, I'll do my best to fit in as many as my schedule allows.

Its very important for me to see these as finished ink drawings. I learn a lot by finishing them, and that is the whole point of the blog. Well, that and getting to draw superheroes all day.

I don't have much history with this character. The books I've read when he's a member, he always seemed like a character there to fill the roster. I don't mean that in a bad way, I just never got much character from him in the stories I remember. If someone who is a fan of the Black Knight can let me know which issues or story arcs are the real character defining moments for him, then I can go to the con this weekend and find some back issues.

    3. When Black Knight first appeared in Ultraforce George Perez did the art. BK appeared in the UF universe during the Epting and Harras run. It was at the end of the battle with Proctor. I really enjoyed that stuff too.
