strange childlike “glamour shot” self-portrait, 9/2011. meant to blow it up for an inking warm-up, but i either didn’t do it or didn’t like the result, i can’t remember.
on the top left, the hair’s a little wig-y and the head shape’s off, but i like it otherwise.

lettering warm-up: walt whitman, “year that trembled and reel’d beneath me,” 1865
whitman’s everywhere here in south philly. he spent time in philly and lived, kissed oscar wilde, and died in camden, across the walt whitman bridge, a stone’s throw from my house.
i was gonna photoshop this — that’s why there are multiple takes on the lettering of his name and one of the commas is whited out — but i liked it better as a raw scan. one more of these, with epigrams instead of a poem, is forthcoming.

Here’s Wally Wood’s initial page breakdown for this page from DAREDEVIL #9, along with the actual finished page. Bob Powell may have helped with the penciling on this one.

My grandfather (my dad’s dad), Robert B. Moorman, 1925-2009. Known to my sister, Julie, and I as “Grandpa Mo’.”
I had been away for some years due to school, and when I saw him for my cousin David’s wedding he opened his arms, smiled big, and said, “Kill the fatted calf! The prodigal son has returned!”
Older Moorman relatives, if you found this blog from the Bob Moorman remembrances blog, I do not suggest you keep looking.
