    Anybody have those comics I did on the back of the So-Cal catalogs? There were three episodes, I don't have the art anymore and I only saw the first one... I never saw them together in sequence. They were so-so, but It's pretty hard to tell a story that flows from one panel to the next, makes sense, and has room for the text bubbles and has them arranged nicely... I'll stick to single images-

    Do you have the catalog #s or dates ? Every now and again these come up on ebay as shown in thumbnail. While running some searches on So Cal I got sidetracked by some Stanley Wanlass bronzes & paintings that came up. Hopefully someone will locate your 3 comic episodes and share them with us.

    Also some random panels of the batmobile

    rbantique,

    I really don't know, I assume there would be one a year... Around early 2000's- '03-'05?

    Thanks for showing all the great Frazetta stuff, I have the Johnny Comet book, and somebody at WB gave me a zerox stack of the Toth stuff, all that stuff has been an influence!

    It's funny how sometimes you know exactly what car is in those kinda shaggy comics- like Wonder Woman in the Squaglia T!
