Solomon Stoned, that is!

That’s right, the Jersey Gods artist and Doctor Who comic strip writer has lent his pen to the Action Age for the pinup in the upcoming Chronicles of Solomon Stone story, slated to start on the Action Age in a mere two weeks! And what’s more, it’ll be colored by none other than El Gorgo artist Tamas Jakab!
We here at the Action Age are all huge fans of McDaid and Jakab, and we’re pleased as a punch to the face that they’re going to be contributing to what will surely be the greatest comic book in the history of publishing. We’ve had the finished pin-up here at Actionopolis for a few weeks now, and it just gets more and more awesome every time we look at it.
And if you like the sketches we’ve put up here, keep this in mind: These were what Dan rejected in favor of an even better pinup!

If you’re not familiar with Dan McDaid, check out his site, his conversations with Action Age Letterer Benjamin Birdie, or swing by your local comic shop and ask for Jersey Gods! And for more on Tamas Jakab, check out the Friends of the Action Age at ElGorgo.com!

I like the hair. It walks the elusive line between the Eddie Munster and the Gene Vincent!

Excellent news!
In those sketches Mr Stone looks a bit like a rough, vampiric David Tennant. With a quiff. And a skateboard.

Sweet!
And I knew “tie” was a sound-effect!
