Say What Dog



Hey look at this Seance Dog poster I drew for Mark's bedroom in the smash hit amazon prime animated cartoon series "Invincible" based on the comic book of the same name.

In the Invincible comic, the main character's favorite ever comic book is called "Science Dog" which is also a for real in real life comic, so in order to keep Science Dog its own separate entity, Kirkman (Robert Kirkman, co-creator of Invincible) thought that we should come up with a new favorite ever comic book character to be loved by our main character in the animated adaptation of the Invincible comic.  Kirkman had hundreds of good ideas but Seance Dog was the best and so that's' the one we went with and now you know (if you didn't already) why Science Dog isn't a thing in the smash hit amazon prime animated cartoon series.

Probably should've 'tooned this bad boy up a bit, because within the context of the show, this is almost a photo-realistic drawing.  That's a funny thing to think about.  Like when there's a painting in a show that's rendered more than the "real life" characters are and jeez man how weird would that be to look at a picture of yourself that's more detailed than real life.  Or like when Bobby Hill or someone draws a picture of Peggy Hill or someone else and it looks exactly like they look and it's like dang Bobby Hill or whoever is a really talented artist!

See you next time
