In the DARK AVENGERS comic, there was a fake Hawkeye running around who was secretly the villain known as Bullseye. They got away with it because the real Hawkeye was dead. Don’t worry, Hawkeye is not dead anymore.
Tribute Tuesday – Mike Zeck’s Secret Wars #1
MARVEL SUPER HEROES SECRET WARS was Marvel’s first big comic event that was directly and specifically tied into a line of action figures, which were created by Mattel in the 1980s. Featuring all of Marvel’s most prominent heroes and villains fighting on Battleworld, the comics and toys were a huge success. I personally had all the comics and as many of the action figures as I was able to track down. Awesome art by Mike Zeck sure helped make it all look amazing. Here’s my Mini Marvels tribute to SECRET WARS #1 based on Mike Zeck’s original classic cover.

Fan Art Friday – Comix by Jordan
I recently had this comic strip sent to me from Jordan…
Pretty awesome, right? But what does it have to do with me? Why does it get a spotlight here on Fan Art Friday? Because this strip was actually suggested by Hawkeye for Colossus to draw…
Much later on, Hawkeye writes down a joke for the Hulk to use on his date with Betty…
And we soon find out what that joke is during Hulk’s date…
It’s the same joke Hawkeye suggested for Colossus to draw. But nobody ever did draw that comic strip… until Jordan came along, that is! Great job, Jordan! I love it, and Hawkeye loves it too!
Mighty Monday – Project Comic Con benefit auction
As I’m getting ready for this coming weekend’s Project Comic Con in St. Louis, Missouri, I thought I’d share this Avengers piece that will be up for grabs in Project Comic Con’s benefit auction, where 100% of the proceeds will go to benefit the St. Louis branch of the Special Olympics.
It’s Captain America leading Thor, Iron Man, Hawkeye, Black Widow, Hulk, and Spider-Man into battle. Or maybe to the comic store. Avengers assemble!
