Dragon and Mr. Glum from Savage Dragon

'Hero' owned by David Hammond

White Witch from the Legion

Here’s another four commissions– the Cobra one I’m fairly pleased with, definitely. I always enjoy illustrating the Cobra-aligned characters in the G.I. Joe universe, and this commission was a breath of fresh air in that it wasn’t just another ninja piece. Always fun!

I won’t lie– Savage Dragon is one of my favorite comics currently being published. Erik Larsen’s work on that book is inspiring to see unfold, and so far this year he’s put out 15 issues! Crazy. I’d love to do a creator-owned book at Image one of these days… here’s hoping! That’d be very cool.

Hero is a creator-owned character I was requested to render. I had a heck of a time working out how to draw his helmet, but in the end it turned out pretty strong, I think.  Fun fun.

White Witch is from the LEGION books DC Comics puts out, and the reference I found for her online was fascinating– I’d never seen that before! The eye tendril thing is kinda creepy in some ways. I’ve been playing catch-up on all matters Legion, I’m afraid– although it’s one of the top requests I get for convention sketches and commissions, I never really investigated the series myself until fairly recently. The Jim Shooter/ Francis Manapul run was simply GORGEOUS, and I really wanted to see where it was headed. Too bad it got cut out behind the scenes towards the end of their run. :/

Enjoy!

Since I get this question all the time from fans, I thought I might as well compile the answer here so I can direct them to one cohesive answer in one link. Enjoy!

- I was hired starting in late 2007 by Conceptopolis to illustrate several G.I. Joe comics.

- They were  written by classic Joe creator and legend Larry Hama, and the continuity from these would fit neatly in between the issues (and sometimes literal pages) of the original 1980’s Marvel Comics G.I. Joe run.

- The all-new comics were packaged as the main box art and inserted into the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero 25th Anniversary toy line in their two-character packs.

- I did 6 of the 12 issues. The others were illustrated by Andrew Froedge, Sheldon Goh, and Eduardo Ferigato.

- Here’s an easy-to-follow checklist of the Jeremy Dale G.I. Joe comics:

- I have tons of pages in my gallery here on www.jeremy-dale.com from this project. Check them out here:

- As of this writing, there are no current plans known to me to reprint these outside of the action figure packs.

- If you’re interested in purchasing original artwork from my G.I. Joe run, contact me at jeremyhdale@yahoo.com . I’m selling them as cheap as possible to make room in my studio for the constant influx of my latest work.

- You can still find these comic packs on Amazon and many other online venues, and the copies I sign at conventions for the fans sometimes end up on Ebay as well. Good luck!
