Do Ya Feel Lucky, Punk?

Is it possible that July is gone already?? It drives me crazy that the Summer is flying by so quickly! My kids will be back in school on August 18th, which also happens to be my son's birthday. Talk about adding insult to injury! "Happy Birthday kiddo- now go back to school!"
I couldn't let the month slip away without posting one more monster. This is another old one from 1992, back when I was using Sharpies and glossy card stock to do my artwork. I was also busy working on my heavy metal fanzine called "Not Fragile", and I drew a lot of crazy stuff like this to use in various places throughout the 'zine. The fun part about old artwork is that I can now take it and scan it in to my computer and go crazy adding fun backgrounds in Photoshop or even re-doing the art completely using the Wacom tablet. Gotta love technology- when I was doing the 'zine I had to use a photocopier to scale down my artwork, then paste it into place. UGGH...
