Charlie Clark preliminary sketches

Here are some prelim sketches by Charles Clark, the back up artist in volume 1, who will be returning for a short story in volume 2 focusing on one of our favorite villains from the first book, Bolt Action.

THE BIG BEAT DOWN!!

Villains Volume 2: The Big Beat Down will be released in fall 2008 from Viper Comics. Volume 2 will follow up the events in the first Villains series and continues to focus on the dynamic relationship between Nick Cogan, the new, villainous Hardliner, and Charlie Cobb, the original Hardliner. Tossed into the mix are some new and returning characters as we go all out action for THE BIG BEAT DOWN! Over the next several months we will posting pre-production art, sketches and more in preparation for the release this fall. Comments are highly encouraged and we hope you all will get as excited as we are for this new volume.

To start the year off, here is a promo poster and some character sketches of Nick in Hardliner armor, Bolt Action, Calico and Flying Ace.
