In
2008, a comic review site said this cover I did was pretty highbrow
for Scooby-Doo! I remember it well! Why? Because although it came out
in April 2008, the final art was done in a rush over Christmas in
2007! It was a super quick art job all to get a preview image done
for the Diamond Distribution catalog.
The theme was to celebrate Earth Day. I worked out four concepts
as thumbnails but the last one I drew only used silhouettes of them
on a cliff looking out into the sun. I thought it would be more
"artsy"... not to mention easier to bang out quick!
Everyone agreed and said to go for it.
The power of the Silhouette! I remember when this came out and I
saw it on the new comic racks at Captain Blue Hen Comics and it stood
out from all the other comics surrounding it! It was a true
eye-catcher for sure! Still is!
Here’s a scan of the final cover, the final art I did without
the logos and such, and a RARE alternate I did as an option that I
never shared anywhere of just Scooby and Shaggy.
“Like, pretty highbrow indeed, Scoob!”
