Monday New Art — Assbeard: Think Outside Your Ass! (My Original Art)
Ah how I hate corporate lackey jargon and catchphrases. “Synergize and leverage interdisciplinary strengths”, “It will speak to that in the language”, “Moving forward we will address that in the strategy”, as well as a host of other meaningless corporate dribble.
Speaking of dribble, gang, here’s some awesome ass-dribble in the form of today’s all-new-all-original-all-mega-buttastic JGR Monday New Art!! It’s one of my most hated corporate catch phrases, “Think outside the box”. This ass-terpiece of big business jargon-jackassery is entitled Assbeard: Think Outside Your Ass! It was lovingly hand crafted by me, your good old bestest internets buddy Joe!
A special thanks to Noah who helped me brainstorm the catchphrase “Think Outside Your Ass!”
As always gang, do enjoy!

Monday New ArtThe Biffeteer Picture Book: Chapter 6 - “Victory of the Biffeteer” (My Original Art)

KAZOWIE and WOWZA Roboteers, it ALL ends here… TODAY!! Today’s Monday New Art post is the FINAL episode in the SIX chapter JGR mega-event The Biffeteer, America’s Favorite Flatulent Action Hero!! Strap on your ass-rockets gang, and prepare for the end!

Our story so far:
In our last installment, the Noah the goon is bested by our flatulent action hero, the Biffeteer. Once the goon is defeated, our hero fearlessly made his way inside of the ominous Nazi Zeppelin cabin and was confronted by CB Sinclair, the evil leader and all around scoundrel!! Sinclair demands the X-346 Nuclear Fusion Power Cell from Biffeteer! As Sinclair was about to “pop a cap” in Biffetter’s “ass”, the Biffeteer lounges into action releasing one of his most powerful thrusts of ass-jets to date!! CB Sinclair is instantly vaporized, however, the ass-blast was so powerful the Zeppelin burst into flames!

WOWZA gang, that’s all she wroye! There is NO more… of Biffeteer that is! I truly hope all those who stuck this adventure through had a good laugh and enjoyed it! I have TONS more new artwork and wacky posts coming your way in 2013! So if I haven’t chased you away yet, keep coming back!

(MODOK) Monday New Art — MODOKWOOF! Initial Idea Sketch! (My Original Art) - My Process!
Wowzers Roboteers, I haven&#8217;t made a Joe&#8217;s Process post in what feels like ages. In my process posts I try to show and explain how my creative process works.
Most of my posts show the extreme preparation I take before committing to the final art, today&#8217;s post shows like life, art can&#8217;t be forced into a formula. My process varies based on many factors including inspiration. The photo in this post is the ONLY prep I did for MODOK WOOF! That&#8217;s right, this simple sketch.
I woke up Thursday morning, March 21, 2013 at 6am. As I drank my coffee and tried to wake up inspiration hit me. I wanted to submit a MODOK to a blog I&#8217;ve followed for years. Somewhere between that first sip of coffee and walking out the door to get to work, I sketched this idea. It was the only pre-process work I did before drawing my finished version! It really has all the elements I wanted to get across in the final version. The bulging forehead, baggy eyes, large mouth, wrinkles, Kirby dots, action &#8216;burst&#8217; lines, and of course the word balloon with &#8220;Woof&#8221;.
Once I started drawing the actual artwork, it just flowed out of me and into MODOK WOOF! - I loved every second I worked on that drawing. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did creating it.

I&#8217;ve wanted to do my rendition of the magnificently malevolent MODOK and participate in MARCH MODOK MADNESS for several years now. I think I first came upon the website in 2009 and it was MODOK love at first MODOK sight. Well, Roboteers, last Thursday inspiration struck me like a piano falling from a 30 story building in a Popeye cartoon&#8230; and BAMMO buckaroos&#8230; MODOK WOOF! was the result!
&#8220;WHAT THE F@CK IS A MODOK&#8221;, you ask dear Roboteers&#8230; let me illuminate you. Here&#8217;s some info from the Wiki:

MODOK (also written as M.O.D.O.K; acronym for Mental/Mobile/Mechanized Organism Designed Only for Killing) is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Tales of Suspense #93 (September 1967) and was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

I&#8217;m very pleased and excited to be participating in this years MODOK shenanigans. I hope you all enjoy this illustration as much as I did creating it.
