Camelot 3000 character art?

[Shark]

I've been chatting with a west coast comic art collector and asked him about this piece tonight. He thinks it is of characters from the 1980's DC series Camelot 3000 and thinks it may have come from a Who's Who in the DC Universe comic.

 

 

 

I picked it up a few years ago at a local auction. Can anyone tell me which Who's Who it came from and maybe even post a pic or scan? Also, do any of you recognize the artists' names?

 

Thanks,

Well, I did confirm that these are characters from the Camelot 3000 DC comic book and the bottom signature is from Bill Jaaska. Does anyone know the signature of the other artist?

I have seen a couple different DC Who's Who pieces from Cam3k...neither of which looked like this, and both of those were by Bolland.

 

I don't think I have ever seen this image before. It's certainly a finished image, nice enough for publication, but I have never seen a pubbed image for Cam3k done by another other than Bolland.

PS...Any markings on the back?

No...no markings on the back. It is drawn on Crescent illustration board.

From what I remember of the Who's Who books, the artists that were currently working on the titles were the ones that usually did the pin-ups. I remember pieces for Death and Morepheus, Shade the Changing Man and John Constantine specifically. These would have all been pre-Vertigo. Also remember Kelley Jones' Deadman piece (which I believe Glenn D. owns the original to) and I would have expected the Camelot 3000 piece to have been by Bolland.

 

I just don't recognize the first name, but Bill Jaaska was a regular around DC at this time. He did the New Titans stuff and he did some fill in issues for Shade that I once had some art to.

 

Maybe they needed a piece for the WW and Bolland was unavailable?

 

If I still had those books I'd look it up for you...

Does anyone else recognize the top signature on this art? I know Bill Jaaska is the bottom signature but still can't figure out who the other guy is. I'd also like to know if anyone has ever seen this particular scene in a comic book....possibly one of the aforementioned Who's Who in the DC Universe comics? Any help would be appreciated.

Can you provide a less blurry pic of the sig?

Sure. I'll see if I can take a clearer one tonight after I get home from work/dinner.

Here's a clearer pic of the signatures.

Not ringing any bells. One other thing I was thinking about are all the role playing/board/card games made from comics properties, and I believe there was a video game adaption made from this as well. Could be it was for a project like that?
