The 7 Ages of Fan

Thanks to Alex De Campi for reminding me on Twitter yesterday of this cartoon I did back in 1998. It was drawn for the con booklet of that year's United Kingdom Comic Art Convention (UKCAC) and auctioned off for charity. I can't remember who bought it, but if you're out there, thanks!

Speaking of Alex, check out her current comic series Grindhouse: Doors Open At Midnight from Dark Horse. Good trashy adult comic horror! The latest issue (Flesh Feast of the Devil Doll) features artwork by Gary Erskine, so what's not to like?
