SWAMP THING by meaghan carter!

Back from computer hell hiatus, here's Swamp Thing to cover you in gross bugs and stuff!

SWAMP THING by Ryan Bullard


So I'm a little late with Swampy this week, I just didn't have as much time this week as I would've liked. So what, wanna fight about it?

When I think of Swamp Thing, I don't really think of the comics character, instead I get all nostalgic about late night movies, junk food and vhs tapes. Swamp Thing brings back memories of staying up late watching campy, pulpy, schlock like Creepshow, Tales from the Darkside, and John Carpenter movies and many many others. In those way-back times when you had to rent them or be lucky enough to catch late night broadcasts. The Swamp Thing movies are pretty damn awful, but in that deliciously bad way, and I'm positive ol' Swampy had a hand in my endless love for misunderstood monsters and creatures of the night.

Halloween is right around the corner, and it's a great time to dig out old monster movies. Maybe give Swamp Thing another go after being lost in the bog for 30 years. I'm sure it'll be much more fun on an old fuzzy vhs though.

My first post on Spitballin'!  Thanks guys for welcoming me on board.  A digital speed paint of the big swampy guy.  Looking at it now, he kinda looks like what the Japanese do at a bath house or onsen (hot springs,) just soaking his troubles away.  All he needs a towel on his head.

Looking forward to more fun doodles.

SWAMP THING by Ken House


Swamp Thing and Abby!

I spent the week reminiscing about how into Moore's Swamp Thing run I was as a teenager, and the action figure I had as a kid that changed color in water.

It's been a busy week and I didn't quite find time to finish this one, which is unfortunate because it would have been a learning experience.

SWAMP THING by Adam Gorham

Spotting the Swamp Thing!
I imagined being a nature photographer taking wild life shots in some swamp and seeing this through my lens, at first not realizing what I've glimpsed past dense foliage. When the realization does come, it's accompanied by the petrifying understanding that he sees me too.

This piece done in marker on 9" x 12" bristol vellum and is on sale at my gallery.

SWAMP THING by David Cutler

Swamp Thing,
You are Amazing!
You fight everything... nasty
Swamp Thing!

Swamp Thing's one of my most embarrassing comic book blind spots. I've read maybe one, two issues of the Alan Moore stuff. Mostly I know him from the short-lived animated series, which is not something I like to admit at parties.
