Supergirl | Almond Ink

In 1996 I’d inked ULTRAGIRL with Leonard Kirk for Marvel/Malibu and other Star Trek work for Malibu before that. I hooked up with Sal Velluto in 1997 and Leonard hooked up with inker Robin Riggs on SUPERGIRL that same year so these two commissions are the last pieces we’ve done together since. My first Supergirl commission (of many).

Antman & the Wasp, another commission over Leonard’s pencils for the same buyer, both in 1999.

These next two earlier commissions, same buyer, same Leonard penciller from June 1997 of the Legion of Super-heroes’ Phantom Girl, pencils & inks.
