Evan “Doc” Shaner, whose work I’ve raved about here on the Ramble many times, posted this little gem to his blog over the weekend. Here’s how he describes it:
Last time I mentioned that James Lucas Jones had suggested using Case of the Midnight Visitor for the fourth Encyclopedia Brown “cover”. Somewhere in that conversation Paul Tobin jumped in and for reasons I can’t quite remember the cover you see here is what came out of it. I was thinking the way I drew Billy Batson last time and the way he came out looking like something out of the Hardy Boys and this seemed like it would be a fun team-up. Plus, Bugs Meany in the Monster Society of Evil sounds like a good fit to me.
Now, click to embiggen, and behold the awesome.
