Hawk Krall mostly reminds me of Hawk Krall. I love his work and hope to work with him sometime on a project.
Mr. Wright, I like the illustration of you and found a link to illustrator Hawk Krall of you at http://www.hawkkrall.net/xnews43.htmlHawk Krall reminds me of the work of R. Crumb. I would like to know if you follow any published works by artists who make comic or the novel form manga popularized by a growing number of artists in the West. I did not like comics until I saw the documentary Crumb and the movie Ghost World and I started to "get it." I think it would be cool to have a comic or mange version of Generation Kill illustrated by Hawk Krall whose work I found on his website after did a little sleuthing: http://www.hawkkrall.net/ I don't see how any of the stories could be comix versions of Hella Nation, except maybe the "Mad Dogs and Lawyers" article, illustrated by Paul Schneider which would be too sick I imagine.
