Shamon: Thanks for giving it a try, hope you like it! Yeah, it’s probably a little before your time, you’d have been 10 when the TV series and the comic series from Marvel came out, so you might have been into other stuff then.

Ever watch a TV show called “Dream On”? Half the show was flashbacks to Martin Tupper’s TV viewing childhood. I so relate. Im just an old guy and I watched Johnny Quest when it was new – and the image took me back. Course Jake also resembles John Constantine a little bit too.

There used to be a Vietnamese pho place near my work, that was built in an old pizza place. They had images of Al Pacino, Marlan Brando, etc. still air brushed on the wall – it was a hoot. There is a little similarity. As to Ms Jones – I think she’s a great inspiration (*hides image from view*). Interestingly, when they did the movie Tek War, they cast Torri Higginson as Beth – an actor I loved when she was on Stargate: Atlantis (no connection to Dern or Jones though).
Like i said, I’m just all over the place. I will have to get this now though. The inside art is as good as the cover(s), and I loved the old story.

Shawn: yes, that’s Sid in the upper right corner

Mike: not sure if that was meant to be a slam or just an observation, but the inspirations for the characters are as follows: Sid/Benicio Del Toro, Jake/Jason Statham (with more hair), Bascom/Mr. Shatner (just like the TV series), Beth(girl running)/January Jones. I just used them as inspiration, but didn’t look at pictures of those actors after I designed the characters.
