Be-Be-Beano Kitaro

Here’s another shot of the mystery Beano from this week. Again, all I see is a kid who needs to cosplay as one of my favorite animes.

A little more Amabie for good luck!

The Amabie image I posted yesterday was actually the second version I did, and (I think) the better of the two, but here’s the first one. I’m doubling…

Amabie wishes everyone the best of luck!

I love Japanese folklore, with all the ghosts (yurei), monsters (yokai), paranormal stuff (like ikiryo), but I also consider kaiju to be a modern day addition to all…

Gege-get on that!

Back to drawing Kitaro, one of my favorite all time Japanese characters. I’ve loved every version of the anime, and what few comics I’ve been able to get…

Here’s some color added to an image from last week.

Hustle Punch vs Yokai!

I came across Gegege no Kitaro from a roundabout way. I had rented a film called Yokai Wars, and basically it’s Gegege but with no Kitaro. It’s all…

More Gegege no Kitaro!

Here are a few more sketches based on Gegege no Kitaro. Something I failed to mention is that Kitaro has a “cow-lick” of hair that tingles when evil…

Ge-ge-gegege-no-Kitaro!

My new Japanese obsession (this week) is Gegege no Kitaro. This is an anime based on a classic manga created by Shigeru Mizuki, and the cartoon has gone…
