It’s Abe Sapien Month at Multiversity! To see all sorts of Abe content, like our “Evolution of Abe Sapien” contest, fantastic original art, interviews and more, click here.
To celebrate our “Evolution of Abe Sapien” art contest, which gives every fan with some ambition and a modicum of artistic talent a chance to have their work published in an issue of “Abe Sapien: Dark and Terrible,” as well as take home a complete set of Hellboy Library Editions, we decided to bring in some ringers, to show us how they interpret everyone’s favorite fish-man. We will be posting pieces each day for this entire month, so come join us for 31 Days of Abe!
All this week, we will be featuring artists who are part of Ashcan Allstars, a sketchblog with a weekly theme. Prior to this week, we shared Abes by Tyler Crook and Moritat, both of whom are Ashcan gents, but this week we have even more Ashcan pals contributing pieces. Please check out their site for some great upcoming themes (Manhattan Projects! Beetlejuice!), and check back every day this week at 2pm EST for more from Ashcan Allstars!
Artist for Dynamite’s “Game of Thrones” adaptation, Tommy Patterson brings us one of the spookiest Abes thus far. Patterson previously worked on the “Farscape” series for Boom!, and did covers for a few issues of “Grimm’s Fairy Tales” for Zenescope. You can pick up some of his original art via Cadence Comic Art, and you can spot him as a grunt in a few issues of “The Manhattan Projects.”
