In Reply to: Lots of Jay & Silent Bob artwork... posted by CB CLERK on November 17, 1999 at 12:49:48:
: : I'm an art student/cartoonist and I now need to do my own version of lil Jay and Silent Bob, I need to. I fully respect Kevin's copyrights and I would never seek commercial gain from such an image, but I have to draw them. Have they been done before? If so where?
:
: First of all, just curious, why do you NEED to? Or do you WANT to? Where have you been man comics my man, comics? You call yourself a cartoonist? Check out the Clerks and other Viewaskew comics and become enlightened!
I need to because the idea of doing a lil version of Jay and Bob (lil reffering to a younger, childlike version) is just too funny
: Anyway comic greats such as Matt Wagner (oni Double Feature #1, designs for action figures, Stash design), Jim Mahfood( Both Clerks one-shots), Joe Quesada(cover to J & SB #1 and artwork for Mallrats), Mike Allred(Bluntman & Chronic in Oni Double Feature #12, artwork for Chasing Amy and Mallrats, J & SB #2 cover), and Duncan Fregredo (J & SB mini-series, cover to Clerks: lost Scene) have all done their renditions. And other cover art, Art Adams(Clerks Holiday special), The Hernandez Bros.( Clerks one-shot though it's of Dante & Randall and J & SB #3 flip cover), and even Scott Mosier has even done his rendition on a few T-Shirt designs. And I'm not sure, but perhaps Walt Flanagan might have whipped up some of the older T-Shirt designs that they have at the stash.
I've read most of the published ViewAskew work and I've not seen 'LIL versions done by all of these artists. I repeat 'lil (shortened from little) versions.
