Young Henry of the Hill


I’m always playing around with a comic book story in my head. I’m sure that we Stone Gazers all are. The drawings below are a “dump” of me coming to realize my main character, Henry. Oh, I could travel back even further, when the character was a sexy woman, but this I think is torture enough.

This character has ended up resembling my six year old son. On the inside however, he’s a lot like me. Through his arc, he will become the type of man I’d like to become; A truly heroic man, perhaps even fatally so (yikes). A Howard Roark type, for those of you who have read The Fountainhead.

Though he wears a wild-west hard-rock miner’s clothes, the story will take place in a land of fantasy.

More to come eventually. At the moment, I'm illustrating a three page story for a friend as a warm up to doing pages again. Cheers!
