MOBRE Wuz Here ( The Hand Puppet Ballet) - 1997


This was originally a pencil drawing, 
surreptitiously drafted behind a page from a proposed series I'd been working on with Mike's help. 
When I finally stumbled on it the first thing I could do, immediately after falling on the floor with apoplectic laughter, was to ink it. 
Dated - 1997

The Robyn Holiday Letter - Late '90's


This full-size comic book page illustration features one of the main characters 
from Dan O'Connor's years-in-the-making Spy-Fi Noir epic "Prisoners Of Progress", 
of which Mike was nice enough to take on lettering duties. 
The unpublished series has recently started being unearthed, restored, and has been mentioned in 
DanO's regularly depressing comics blog. 
Mobre's take on Dano's stuff is always super-cool. 
The page is undated-- circa 1996-1999
