Good King Grizzly Bear Wenceslas

This drawing I made is based on one of my favorite Christmas Carols, Good King Wenceslas! The song is a story of a king from the Middle Ages that felt bad for a peasant that he spotted out his window. Wenceslas decided that the peasant could use some good cheer so he got his page to gather food, wine, and pine longs for the poor man. Wenceslas and his page journeyed through the cold windy night to the peasant's home, but the page couldn't long endure the cold weather so, he told the page that he would warm up if he put his feet in his footsteps. By miracle, the page, along with the king was able to make it to the peasant's home and bring him these gifts. I love the story because it tells that it is better to give to the less fortunate and help your fellow man than to be full of greed. You can hear the song here : Good King Wenceslas  Merry Christmas!

The Wet Paint Mess

Razortooth the alligator got a job at the local mall and just painted the inside of the Men's Restroom. Rusty the bear just got to the mall and had to go really bad and didn't notice the "Wet Paint" sign above. On the way out he brushed his fur against the wall. When he came out Razortooth told Rusty to look at his side and the poor bear was covered with blue paint!

Razortooth is playing the part of the man who spends his life doing bad deeds, use your imagination, he's not exactly a saint you know. Anyway, he rode through the desert on his horse, Buster, and he finally decides to take a break and get comfortable when all of the sudden he is confronted by the sight of demon cows and ghost riders! One of them, the ghost of a dingo calls him out and gives him a warning that unless he becomes a better person he is doomed to join the riders chasing the Devil's Herd for all eternity!

I always loved this song for the spooky story and melody that comes with it so I thought it was time for me to draw the scene out! You can listen to it here sung by Johnny Cash at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mynzbmrtp9I Enjoy! 8D

Beware of the Eye of Sutro!

A ring held by Walter's uncle, Bimbo, was found to posses great evil that would ultimately lead to the end of the world! Being told this by the local magician, Crespian, it became Walter's burden to have it destroyed in a pizza oven in the Castro of San Francisco. On the way there, the great eye of former mayor, Adolf Sutro, wants his ring back so he can rule over the world! Can Walter and his best friend, Rusty, make it past Sutro Tower to destroy the ring and bring back peace to the world?

Rocket Raccoon Needs a Cure!

This was done as a protest on how Brian Michael Bendis has been portraying Rocket Raccoon in the first 3 issues of the newly revived Guardians of the Galaxy comic books by Marvel Comics. Me and many fans didn't understand what was going through Rocket's head lately. Instead of being the nice guy heroic gun slinging raccoon that we all knew from both his creator Bill Mantlo and later from the Guardian's last comic from DnA, Rocket came out as a crazed psychopath. There may be hope that Rocket is already getting better after reading issue #4 of The Guardians of the Galaxy so I'm sticking with the comic for now.

This is a story to go with this drawing:
After it has been found out that Rocket Raccoon has totally lost his mind his friend, and former enemy, Blackjack O'Hare brought Rocket back to his home world, Halfworld, which is used to treat the mentally ill, and cure Rocket of Bendisitis! Both Blackjack, Lylla, and the rest of his friends want to bring Rocket back from his state of insanity. But I do have faith that he will recover!

Rocky Raccoon: Danny Boy, This is a Showdown!

This drawing was inspired by the fact that I love Rocket Raccoon! Rocket Raccoon was created by Bill Mantlo and Keith Griffen in 1976 for Marvel Comics and his inspiration came from the Beetles song "Rocky Raccoon" way back in 1968. I decided to commemorate both of these facts by having the characters from the song played by characters created by Bill Mantlo! The rabbit is Dan played by Blackjack O' Hare, the lovely otter is Megil played by Lylla, and Rocky Raccoon is played by, of course, Rocket Raccoon! You can hear the song here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNRH7_Kd5Yc

Something's Going On Over There!

Rusty, Walter, Ringo, Lester, and Razortooth are playing a game of poker together, and two of them are up to no good!

Superhero Frustration and Denial

With Thanos getting out of control, both the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Avengers put their best strategist together so they can form a plan to bring him down. Unfortunately, Captain America has difficulty accepting that Rocket Raccoon is real! 8P

Of course Rocket is frustrated, after all it was he that said "Never doubt a raccoon!"

After a long morning of delivering Easter Eggs, Harold the Easter Bunny of Spring Meadows, decided to take a moment and relax when his best friends, Razortooth the gator and Steven the Fox, sneak up on Harold and tickle him for the fun of it!

This all takes place during the time these guys were all in the 2nd grade and years before Razortooth moved to Paw Valley. Harold is the chubby cousin of Lester, just to let you know! 8D
