Description Another pinup for the Philadelphia Cartoonist Society Watchmen tribute book. More details when they become available.

Anyway ... When I submitted my Silk Spectre pinup, the editor told me it was the only Silk Spectre he'd received. I told him, if there was another unrepresented character he needed to let me know. I had this weird feeling he was going to say "Ozymandias." Turns out, he did. Is this proof that I'm psychic?

... Could be.

So, here it is, all tiny and at low resolution. Bwa-hahahahaha!

Waddaya think?

Only if Ozy hasn't had his sense of humor surgically removed. ... Which he probably has.

Ah yes. Ozymandias, the superhero with the most awesome name ever in his glory days. Too bad there arn't as many pic of him with the eye mask on.

His masked career was, if I remember correctly, brief, yet illustrious.

The poor Three Stooges. They always get roughed up. Of course I have a feeling in this case that they deserved it.

I think it's bloody amazing.
I think he's not done so much 'cause he's nto so easy to recognisablly draw as the others?

Phah. Well I love this. In so many ways
Great action <3

Attn2DTale In reply to JustBethan [2009-10-08 21:17:06 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the kind words!

And I think people avoid drawing him because he's such a complex and dangerous character. It's hard to really like him because of what it might say about you!

Still ... I really like him.

JustBethan In reply to Attn2DTale [2009-10-09 17:56:57 +0000 UTC]

I love him (cough pretty blond boy oooh- yes, and 'villain'? OOooh doubble yes).
I love Rorschach too, not in the smae way, but I guess it's becuase he's always there you cna't not love him, I don't agree AT ALL with his black-and-white views, I'm on the gray side with Ozymandias, I guess it's not becuase of the movie in whihc hes made out a lot worse, people don't like him as much.
If the story wasn't in Rorschach's veiwing Ozymandias woud have more fans I'm certain.
A good character none the less.

Hey, a guy who can catch a bullet should be able to deflect them with big, honking metal cuffs on his arms. At least, that's what I was thinking.

Attn2DTale In reply to tehPrincessJ [2009-03-27 15:16:22 +0000 UTC]

Why the Three Stooges? ... To spark curiosity in the viewer. Seriously. Besides, they made it more fun to draw, bringing along ready-made personalities and such.

Glad you liked it! When this request came along, Ozy was the character I was least interested in drawing, but it turns out I totally got into the character when doing the research. Total fun!

It's because Ozymandias represents all that humanity can achieve. (Seriously, he can catch a freakin' bullet!).

The Three stooges represent humanity's stupidity (Seriously, I'm ashamed that we're the same species as me after watching them in action!).

It's literally knowledge kicking stupidity's ass!

83 He's only the happiest man kicking other men apart ever.

...Ozymandias may not understand that his actions were way too much (like driving a car to pick up a pencil), but he still deserves some love.

Lifeisaglitch [2008-11-17 12:56:45 +0000 UTC]

Ozymandias was always my favorite..right after Rorschach (How very original of me) He always seemed like the douchebag son of Batman and Wonder Woman...And i like that thought.

Attn2DTale In reply to Lifeisaglitch [2008-11-17 15:51:58 +0000 UTC]

Well, if I had to choose, I'd rather be a douchebag. It beats sullen outcast, nerdy recluse, inhuman lightbulb, and cranky eye-candy. But it's a toss-up between Ozymandias and Comedian for me; they're the difference between white collar douchebag and blue collar douchebag, and I lean ever so slightly to the white.

Thanks for the comment and fave!

*sniff* This is so beautiful. I had no idea there was a society called The Children of the Watchmen. How can I join? To say I worship Alan Moore as a deity would be an understatement.
We have the same initials (AM) and my name is Adrian to so I have a reverence for Watchmen and I must fav all fan art.
The fact that he is fighting the 3 Stooges is icing on the cake.

Attn2DTale In reply to LordoftheBling-XXL [2008-09-16 23:52:54 +0000 UTC]

Wow! Thanks for the fave.

Regrettably, there is no "Children of the Watchmen." It is, instead, the title of a tribute comic to be released by the Philadelphia Cartoonist Society (details at this [link] ) in November (or at the Baltimore Comic-con, if we're lucky).

I, too, am a big fan of Mr. Moore. He redefined comics for me back in the '80s, and nothing's been the same since.
