Doug TenNapel, when he drew this sketch for me, was probably still better known for his work on the computer game Earthworm Jim, but he’d just had the graphic novel Creature Tech published. Since then he’s had a lot of graphic novels published (I believe the most recent is Ghostopolis), but I have to admit that Creature Tech is almost certainly still my favorite.
Anyway, TenNapel took a distinctly different (and funny) approach to the book. Maybe he was trying to purify my book after Brian Azzarello’s sketch two pages earlier?
