SATURDAY'S BABE OF THE DAY...

The Wondrous Lynda Carter...

Lynda Carter popped in for a

visit yesterday, so I invited her to stay

overnight and made her very welcome in

the 'guest room'. That reminds me, I'd better

take her some breakfast as she'll doubtless be

ravenous after all the energy she exerted trying

to slip out of her chains. Dunno why, as they

were only to ensure that she was comfortable.

Anyway, nice of her to dress in her Wonder

Woman costume. (Or did I dress her

like that? Can't quite recall.)

Kid said...: It's not my fault, Glas - I just can't help being irresistible. And most of them usually insist on sharing MY bed.; 9 November 2020 at 22:59

About the artist:

From 1985 to 2000 A.D. (little joke there), I contributed to a variety of high profile comics and magazines for various companies.

For IPC/FLEETWAY/EGMONT, I freelanced as a lettering and logo artist on various weekly comics and monthly magazines, and also as a resize comic artist and spot illustrator on pocket books, summer specials and annuals.

For MARVEL U.K., BLACK LIBRARY, REDAN and USBORNE BOOKS, I again freelanced as a lettering artist, also working as a restoration artist for MARVEL U.S., restoring and re-creating certain pages of JACK KIRBY art for their MARVEL MASTERWORKS editions.

I also lettered the MARVELMAN sample pages submitted to MARVEL U.S. when they were considering acquiring the character, which - as we all now know - they DID.

Supplied comic strips, cartoons and illustrated advertisements for local business campaigns and newspaper publication on a professional basis since the age of 16. Did my first paid art job for publication at 14 or 15 for Lanarkshire Education Board.

Have also made TV appearances as a collector of memorabilia.
