MUPPETS SLEEPY HOLLOW 1

I'm a huge Muppet fan. This isn't news to anyone whose seen my work. So when I found out Boom Comics were producing Muppet comics, I decided to make my work known to them. Noticing that Boom was dropping the Muppets into popular fairy tales, I decided to go off the beaten path a bit, and put them into the very first (and one of the few) genuinely American fairy tales, Washington Irving's Sleepy Hollow.

I wrote, drew and colored this in the course of a day, and sent it off to Boom. To my dismay, it took them a few weeks to get back with me, just to let me know that Disney thought my work was "too cartoony" for the Muppets. Seriously. FOR THE MUPPETS. Oh well. Life goes on.

I'm not sure why I waited to long to post this on DA, but with Halloween fast approaching, I thought it a good time to unveil it here. So an early Happy Halloween to all my fellow DA'ers and Muppet fans!

UPDATE 10/23/10: I'm putting the three original pages that I drew for this Muppet story up for sale at $100 each (plus $15 for shipping and handling). If anyone is interested, note me here or e-mail me at fourpanelhero@hotmail.com. The offer ends next Friday night, 10/29/10.
