Every year the Emerald City Comiccon puts together an book called “Monsters and Dames”. The proceeds go to charity. All the artist who have tables and booths at the convention are invited to submit work. With 160 artists submitting and only 80 pages available competition is fierce to get inside the book. Both Travis Bundy [Talon #20] and Mark Monlux [Talon #3] were given the sad news today that they did not make the cut. Still, we wanted to share the submission with you.

Toxic 253 by Travis Bundy

Robo-Tiki Terror by Mark Monlux

On May 1st, Talon #3 challenged the rest of the CLAW to create images for May the 4th Be With You. Now it’s time for you to determine the winner. In the comments write I VOTE FOR and then select a single artist. Voting closes at midnight May 4th. Here is what the gang came up with:

by James Stowe

by Elliot Trotter

by Michael Daley

by Nick Butler

by Nick Butler

by Adam Botsford

by Mark Monlux

by Mark Brill

Zombie Apololypse/Copyright - Having vs. Filing Mash-Up by Mark Monlux

Mark Monlux fell three pages short of completing the challenge, but he finished the art the next day so that everyone who contributed both to filling his belly with meat and filling the student scholarship fund’s coffers could see where he drew them into the comic. If you are missing from the strip, or you think he drew you poorly, all I can offer as an excuse is that he was was sleep-deprived. You can see all 24 pages by clicking here.
