Frederik Pohl, 1919-2013

As he lived to 93, there were many pictures of him on line to use as reference. I decided on this older version of him for no other reason than I liked the photograph. You can read many well written thoughts on his passing else where like TOR for one. I'll just draw this quick sketch...

ATARI - SciFi

I can remember sitting on the living room floor when I was a kid ( maybe 9 years old ) and my father reading aloud an article in the magazine he was reading. It was about this games machine that was coming that you could CHANGE the cartridges in! This was so revolutionary that I remember that moment to this day, it was like Science Fiction. The Carts were insanely expensive in the UK though. I think we only ever had about 4 of them ( Combat, Space Invaders, Adventure & Superman ) then 10 years ago I saw a whole box full of them at a FleaMarket, 50cents each....20 years too late.

Another one of them Tarsier Monkeys in Space!

Scientists can be so cruel...

Tars Tarkas of Mars!

Here's that damned four-armed barbaric Green Martian from the John Carter of Mars books.

Oh, I'm a Brooklyn cartoonist who's done lots of stuff, including a story for the recent Shadowline-Image Comics hardcover anthology book, Fractured Fables.
