I got on a Krypto drawing kick after there was a story from ComicsAlliance about an abandoned project from Louie Del Carmen and Bobby Chiu starring Superman and Krypto.
There are many recurring themes to this website, but my desire to see more dogs in comics is literally the subject of my first post. And many subsequent posts. DC, and to a lesser extent Marvel, are sitting on a kibble and bits goldmine of potential powered pup stars. Cosmo, Krypto, S.C.P.A., Lockjaw, Rex the Wonderdog, Ace – I want to know what is happening with them.
I was so disappointed to learn that DC had primed a pitch, only to discard the very idea.
So periodically I’ve been turning to the drawing board to play around.
My first hope – could we resuscitate the idea by pulling a “Clark Kent” on DC itself? If the main characters of this completely new and unaffiliated comic wore glasses (Superman has to wear two, since if he wore one he’d just be Clark) no one would recognize them and we could all have the comic we’d love….
Auuuugh, he’s too cute! What heartless monsters could say no to such a face?
Thanks for stopping!
