Boose -n- Gar Front and Back Covers



Here is the nearly finished front cover image to the Boose n Gar Collected book! (I say nearly because I have been known to tweek these things right up until the day it goes to print.)
I enlarged the background to allow for the logotype to be applied, and added a blue border treatment. (A homage to the border treatment on the comic's original covers in the 80's)
I also began coloring the image to be used for the back cover as well, and here it is. More of a portrait study of the two heroes, in a more relaxed moment between adventures.

Your comments mean alot, so keep 'em coming. Get some of your art up on the net too, so we can see it! You'll find that it will inspire yet another artist out there.
Thanks!

OMG I cannot believe I have found the creator of BUCE N GAR. I bought BUCE N GAR #1-2 back in the day and have been searching for more - IS THERE ANY MORE. I absolutely loved these two. So are there going to be more adventures for these two and if so where can I BUY THEM. I NEED MORE BUCE N GAR

Get me your address and I will let you know when it's printed.
