Jay Piscopo , Comic creator , artist , Author and Publisher is responsible for this homage/parody to our favorite Son of Cimmeria. Jay has a unique and classic style all his own. His work reminds me a bit of Alex Toth and some Steve Rude ( Greatly influenced by Toth himself ) Visit Jay's website and check out his products. This drawing right here sparked an idea. Jay ( Who through Dr. Mego ) produces his own COMMANDER X action figures that you can buy online through his website (HERE). You can also visit his Blog on Blogspot (HERE).
....next year the plan is to produce a SAVAGE SWORD version of COMMANDER X ( MEGO ) style action figure complete with furry shorts. I made friends with Jay on the facebook after I saw his Undersea super hero the SEA GHOST comic book. I felt the need to share this drawing with the good readers of CROM...be on the lookout next year for this new Barbaric action figure. I know I'll be getting me one. Dig it!
I checked Jay's FAQ page, and was suprised that the first question that popped into my head wasn't answered there...any relation to Joe Piscopo?
ReplyDeleteJay's artwork is mighty fine, btw.
I too think of the Great comedian and Sinatra impersonator each time I see his name. However...I think they just share the name...There are 5 more people in the U.S. with my name...one of them is a Brilliant award winning Neuro surgeon and another a pro Snow Boarder who competed in the Olympics. Then there is the College Professor Mathematician.
ReplyDeleteMy claim to fame is that I am a contributor on "CROM , THE ULTIMATE CONAN FAN BLOG BABY!!!!"
