Description Bringing out some old art. Older, at least.
This was a reaction to the Bad Girl-izing (can that be a word?) of Mary Marvel in the comics at the time.

I've been a fan of the Marvel Family since the 70's, when DC first started printing Shazam. You really captured the spirit of the classic Mary Marvel in this art. Well done!

I love this piece, still one of my favorites of yours from the old drawing board days! I love the colors and the movement, shes so cute/appealing, its not just someone standing around. Great work. Great work!

Cool illustration. The colors are very pleasing.
The stains, or marks on the paper actual enhance this piece; giving this a nice vintage look.

I really like how you bent the stars, and the twisting of the snake.

This looks and works quite well! It's a pity that the image is small and Mary is somewhat occluded by the snake in the foreground, but it's still a great action pose and you've got the costume down perfectly.

ronsalas In reply to starryvoid [2010-02-16 13:41:48 +0000 UTC]

To sell the illusion of 3-dimensionality it's important to have part of her covered by the snake. By overlapping the two figures you make it seem like one if in front of the other.
Thank you.

That's awesome, Ron. I really like Mary Marvel and I hate what they've been doing to her. Really like the line holds and colors.

No I haven't, but I totally totally agree with this! I hate what they've done to the character. "Dark, edgy Mary Marvel" is just wrong on so many levels.

I've really tuned that out. Final Crisis was the last straw.
Looking forward to the new Shazam book, though.

For some reason, punching a snake seems like a really dickish thing to do. Unless he was asking for it. Fantastic work, sir!

ronsalas In reply to DexAntares [2010-02-15 21:02:49 +0000 UTC]

The snake's always asking for it! That's why he's the snake!
Thanks.
