Whoa! Those are two very nicely done sketches Mr. Delaney!

And you were right about drawing something that the fans of these characters never have seen before, and you do a nicely job of doing it!

I can't wait for the next sketch, because you've done an outstanding job of representing the characers so far. I especially like Ivy and Harley looking for a place to hide, and that look on their faces, it's so PERFECT. The Calvin and Hobbes sketch also looks good, just because I never knew you could draw in so many different styles! Hmm, how do you do it John?

The 2 sketches came in unexpectedly, coming in so early, not that I don't mind the sketches coming in early though.

Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn are the FUGITIVES!


Any chance we'll see a cartoon Tommy Lee Jones? hehe

Some very unexpected and pleasant surprises this week. It's great to see Harley and Ivy in a sketch without their costumes, but the true gem of the two has to be Calvin and Hobbes. I'm glad you gave us the kind of sketch we could never see anywhere else. Calvin Kirk and Mr. Hobbes! Pure genius. Hobbes with big pointy ears is reason enough to love this pic.

Thanks so much everyone!
I had a blast drawing these ones. It was one time I was really happy it was a tie, because I wanted to draw both of these ideas so bad.
Cheers
John

And I already started coloring the Calvin/Hobbes one! That is my favorite sketch yet!

Don't worry, it will turn out better than that Superman one I colored. I didn't even know the color of Superman's underwear was red!

I really like the face on Ivy. I really like the theme for the picture as well. I can't find a thing wrong with the picture. It's my favorite by far. It blows even the Megatron picture away. I will have to color this. I am just going to do it sometime this week when I have time. I don't want to rush doing this one. Just beautiful.

It is kind of ironic that Harley is in the ripped up daisy dukes and half shirt. I was just working on a painting for someone where Ivy has on the same outfit. It's based on a picture from Harley Quinn 18 or was it 17? I forget. At first look the longer suit would be better for Quinn since her costume is a full body suit. Then again I guess they didn't want to leave too much of Ivy's deadly flesh exposed.

I've always been uncomfortable refering to Supe's red briefs as underwear. What does everybody think is a name that gives dignity to this particular piece of the superhero uniform.
Personally, I like "action togs"!

Wow, both of those pics are slick! I love the "Fugitive" feel to Harley and Ivy.

Excellent as always. The Harley & Ivy sketch is very nicely done, I especially love the "running from the law" angle. But for some strange reason I keep on expecting Solomon Grundy to pop-up in the background.

But the real gem is the Calvin & Hobbes sketch, very true to the original strips. And the look on Hobbes face with the Vulcan ears is priceless.

Awesome work John, simply awesome.

Yeah, I think that's what most of the people who voted for them were hoping for.

Excellent work, John. I laughed a lot at the Calvin & Hobbes one. I'm glad that I voted for it.
