Captain Caveman by Ben Morse

Look, if an image of Batman in caveman times starts making the rounds around the same time we're drawing Captain Caveman here, I'm just going to do what comes natural...

'Nam Batman by Ben Morse

No lie, when I heard the time-lost Batman pitch, the first thing that popped into my head was to do a Saturday Night Fever riff, but then without any discussion between the two of us, TJ went and did it first, so instead I did this...

I don't love how I did the shading (particularly on the pants) or that the bandana looks like some sort of earpiece, and in retrospect it would have been neat to add some more bat gadgets or touches, but hey, here we are.

Hat tip to the poster for the original Rambo.

Orko by Ben Morse

Continuing my homage/re-casting theme from last week, I give you Orko: Sorcerer Supreme!

If I didn't live up to the standards set by Marcos Martin, well, that's something I'm prepared to live with.

Destructor by Ben Morse

Inspired by Zach's homage last week, I decided to do my own, casting Sean T. Collins and Matt Wiegle's character, Destructor, as Iron Man from his first appearance:

Destructor is a super-fun character to draw and I'm quite pleased with how this came out, with the exception of getting cocky with the logo and thinking I could do it straight off with ink then screwing up the "S".

Check yourself out some Destructor here.

Geist by Ben Morse

Hello, I'm Ben Morse, assistant editor of Marvel.com, contributor to The Cool Kids Table, yada yada yada.

So when I thought about my approach to Geist, I figured the other guys had kinda covered the zany fun-loving stuff, so I'd go for a more "He's a vampire tilt." Whether owing to me not pulling it off or the character just being too inherently fun to go full horror with (though I'm sure some people could quite well) I ended up maybe halfway there. I'll cop to borrowing the hands from Tony Daniel's cover to Teen Titans #37 (hands are tough, yo) and of course using the concept art Justin has shown elsewhere, but the rest is mostly me.

No idea how that Medusa mullet happened.

Anyhow, as you should know by this point, if you're digging any of these or if you're not, go buy Hero House. Now.
