I went to college with this dude. He’s a phenomenal airbrush artist. We’d made a lotta chedda doing artwork on the side back in school. I would love to see more of his work.

I met this guy on MySpace. He does a very funny comic strip series on there.

I met this guy when I was speaking to his art class at my town’s local high school. He’s very talented, so I asked him to draw his rendition of Hank and Christie.

I got an email within the past week or so from Robert Matejcek. He informed me that he was a fellow cartoonist and that he enjoyed reading ADDANAC CITY. He also asked if it was okay if we did a link exchange. Since I’m always eager to help out a new creator (and it helps to spread the word about ol’ Hank, too), I agreed.

We’ve been keeping in touch since then. I checked out his amusing site and I love his colors and character design.

Robert was kind enough to send me this really cool Fan Art that you see above. I got a kick out of it so I decided to share it with you guys. Now if I can get him to bless me with a full-fledged guest-strip (hint-hint, Robert).

If you get a chance, please go say hi to Robert and tell ‘em you saw his stuff on AC.

A couple of days ago, I was sent this neat piece of artwork from Stripy-Artist, a budding cartoonist I met on Twitter. I think it’s rather cool. Let’s all help support our young artists as they continue practicing and honing their craft. They’re gonna be the creators of tomorrow soon.

Thanks, Stripy-Artist!!!

Hank's Dad art by Antoine Gagnon

I love to see various artists’ renditions of Hank and the other characters from my comic strip ADDANAC CITY. Every cartoonist has their own style, so it’s interesting to see how they view the strip’s cast.

This pic was created by Antoine Gagnon of The Drunken Fools webcomic. Every Friday, he picks a webcomic character to draw in his own unique style. A few weeks ago he chose Mr. Addanac and give him the official Drunken Fools treatment. Thanks, Antoine! I’m diggin’ it.

Hank art by Hans

I received a second piece of Fan Art today which really surprised me. It was sent by a young cartoonist named Hans. The surprise is due to the fact that Hans and I have had a rather turbulent recent history. We’ve exchanged heated words over the debate of ADDANAC CITY’s creative validity.

But like the East Coast/West Coast beef that plagued the hip-hop scene for a while a few years back, Hans and I appear to have reached an amicable truce. I have no problem with his opinions and I feel that we have a healthy respect for what the other does. As a peace offering, he blessed me with this drawing of Hank commemorating his desire to see an ADDANAC CITY movie. I can’t wait to see one too!

Hans is practicing his craft and, little by little, he’s been bringing his ‘A’ game to the drawing table. I hope to see him with his own original comic strip soon where he can showcase his talent and grow. Good luck to you, Hans!

Fan Art by MICHAEL W., age 9 of Missouri

This awesome Fan Art of Hank was sent to me by 9 year old Michael W of Missouri. His mom runs the blog of Hmm….Sweet, Splendid Wisdom which covers just about everything fun, entertaining, and informative that you would wanna know.

I’ve heard that Michael is a big Hank fan and that he loves certain strips (I’m sure Mom doesn’t allow him to read all of the crazy goings-on that occur in ADDANAC CITY).

Thanks, Michael, for the artwork! Keep drawing and, who knows, I may be sending in fan art to your comic one day.

HANK meets SCAPULA by Aidan Casserly

Project Wonderful is a useful place sometimes. It’s not making me a millionaire or anything but, every now and then, I see an ad for a comic that just stands out to me. I can’t help myself, so I just go a’clickin’ to see if the comic is as good as it’s advertising budget.

One comic that I ran into via this method was Aidan Casserly’s Scapula. I was very impressed with the art and the writing is funny to a guy like me with a warped sense of humor.

I was pleasantly surprised while spending a Sunday afternoon sipping lemonade with no lemons and throwing rocks at squirrels (small ones, thank you very much) when I received an email from Aidan. It contained this extremely cool drawing of Hank meeting Scapula! I really liked it and I wanted share it with you guys!

Now go show Aidan and Scapula some of that Addanac love.

Hank Color Fan Art by David Lamason

Hank Fan Art by David LaMason

I just received these drawings hot off the press from cartoonist extraordinaire, David LaMason of the “Unbearable Bears” webcomic! I was so blown away by cool Hank looks in these pics that I had to post the penciled version as well as the colored masterpiece.

So, please, go visit David’s website, Unbearable Bears, and read up on his amazing webcomic! Thanks, Dangermaus!

Yes, it’s official. ADDANAC CITY has reached 400 strips! If you haven’t read my super-sized special 400th comic yet, click here.

I was elated to receive this comic commemorating AC’s milestone from Speearr, who is the creator of the webcomic series Terence N. Tijuana. I think it’s hilarious!

If you get a chance, go check out Terence N. Tijuana. It is excellence in visual storytelling. Plus, Speearr’s got a wicked funny bone, to boot. Tell him George said hi.
