My eldest child, Allie, graduated from college yesterday. I knew/hoped that this day would come and I wanted to give her a gift that was special for the two of us.
The first comic that I bought my girls was Betty and Veronica Double Digest#14 by Dan and Jim DeCarlo and I thought that a recreation would be a good idea. Sadly, Dan and Jim are not longer with us.
By chance, I "ran into" John Sterling Lucas on eBay and we got to talking. John is the one who brought Katy Keene back to light after a long hiatus. He did it with the blessings of Bill Woggon, Katy's creator.
My girls love Katy so we decided to expand the cover scene to include a picnic with Katy, Sis, and my daughter, Allie.
You can see the results here:
You can see the original cover, the pencils, and the inks in my CAF. As always, comments on the piece in the CAF are welcome.
