I sometimes think there is nothing so delightful as drawing.
-Vincent van Gogh
If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all.

Piltdown

Posted by Charley Parker at 10:28 am

Piltdown
Here’s a little diversion for a Saturday morning.

Fresh on the heels of Free Comic Book Day we have a free comic with prehistoric theme, in either HTML or downloadable PDF from, called Piltdown, from Wide Awake Press.

Naming the book after one of the great scientific hoaxes of the 20th Century gives you an idea of how serious it is. The book is an anthology with short stories by a variety of artists.

This is the second free downloadable comic from WAP, the first being EATS, which can also be viewed in HTML or PDF format, as well as the specialty comic book screen reader format of CBZ.
