TOP CAT

Here's a "cartoon painting" I did of TOP CAT a few years ago. This 8" x 10" piece is markers, colored pencils, brush & ink with cel vinyl paint on coquille board. The original pose was penciled by my pal and former WB co-worker, MARK CHRISTIANSEN. Click on the image for a larger view!

YVONNE CRAIG - TV's BATGIRL!

Hope you enjoyed the ADAM WEST and BURT WARD TV Guide articles that I posted the other day. Here's a November 1967 TV Guide article that focuses on YVONNE CRAIG. As we all know (or should know), YVONNE starred as BATGIRL on the 1960s TV series BATMAN, which also starred ADAM WEST and BURT WARD as BATMAN and ROBIN, the Dynamic Duo. I'm also posting a couple of BATGIRL photos that YVONNE CRAIG signed for me a few years ago. Click on the article for reading, and click on the BATGIRL photos for larger views!

I've been posting quite a few of my sketch cards lately, and thought I'd post another artist's sketch card today. It's PAUL McCARTNEY of THE BEATLES, created by my wife, LESLIE. I think she did a terrific job! Beautiful work, Baby...I love you! xoxo

FRANK COGHLAN, JR. - 1916-2009 - BILLY BATSON in CAPTAIN MARVEL MOVIE SERIAL

I've been meaning to do a posting about this for the last couple of days. I recently read that FRANK COGHLAN, JR. passed away on September 7. FRANK COGHLAN, JR. played BILLY BATSON in the 1941 Republic movie serial, ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN MARVEL. I'm a great fan of this movie serial and was sorry to hear that FRANK COGHLAN, JR. had passed away. He was 93. Here's more from the L.A. TIMES.
