Roadrunners Are Brutal AF

Roadrunner perched atop vanquished reptile has become another recurring theme for me.

This isn’t an accurate representation of how a roadrunner interacts with a lizard. They’re WAY more brutal. A roadrunner snatches live prey in it’s stabby beak then quickly smashes the unfortunate critter over and over against the hard ground or a nearby solid object until it becomes mushy enough to gulp down.

Roadrunner’s do everything really fast and will attack anything they think they can eat; insects, rodents (including prairie dogs), other birds and reptiles. True fact: they are infamous rattlesnake killers!

The Klingon ‘High’ Council

I worked for Microprose Software from 1995-1998. We made computer video games.

Several months of that time I spent drawing concept art for the first person shooter game Star Trek: The Next Generation: Klingon Honor Guard (long-ass title MUST include ALL franchises!). It was a run -n- gun game with Klingons and shit. Here’s a couple roughs from my Star Trek sketchbook: Gowron, Chancellor of the Klingon High Council.

Mr. Popularity

This is the most popular cartoon I ever drew. It’s been printed and sold thousands of times on shitloads of merchandise. Take time for frivolous tangents, folks.
