Pick a card, any card...

Just finished up this one for a group show that I am participating in on April 3rd at the Brave New Worlds comic shop, on 2nd street (btwn Market and Arch) in Olde City Philly for April's installment of First Friday...
The focus of the show is everyone's favorite Crown Prince of Crime, the legendary Joker. There will be quite a few artists participating, so come on down and check us out from 6 til 9 pm...

He really does wear a big hat...

Anybody who knows me is well aware that I am a HUUUUUUGE fan of Elvis Costello. A few years ago, I was inspired by a lyric from one of his songs and came up with the "Death Wears a Big Hat" illustration that I originally posted here on my blog in '06. So last week, my buddy Peter who is also a big "EC" fan tells me he's got the opportunity to spend some quality time with our hero, and asks me if I've got any prints of my "Death..." illustration. I passed a couple of copies over to him, in the hopes that Peter would be able to get them to Elvis and be able to hang out with him a bit, and get one signed for me. Needless to say, he enjoyed the art, and was nice enough to pose with it for a photo...
