Some illustrated "clerihews" I made for fun. Never heard of a "clerihew" until a few years ago - they're a bit like a Limerick but not quite. lots of fun trying to think them up, would like to make more sometime.
Love the crisp retro art style! I could see these in Mad Magazine, Cracked, or Crazy. I noticed that you have a bald character theme. The last one reminds me of Lex Luthor, but the first one with Rollo San Paco is my favorite. Thumbs up on all of them!
Thanks for taking a look and the replies. MAD has always been one of my favourites - my father liked comics and was a big fan of MAD and we kids grew up with the old pocket books (I'm in my late 40's). When I was young I never really understood the humour but the art - I loved it. Always thought it was a little bit scary- being almost realistic but not quite- it was like discovering a different world. I did have a page in a Dutch version of MAD about 10 years ago, but it wasn't something I wrote and many other artists could have done it lots better, I'm afraid. But it was nice to try it.
And I didn't realize these guys were all bald until I read your post - didn't mean to do it, just came out that way I suppose.
