The assignment was a simple one: create a “Wizard” logo for their magazine in the style of the HULK logo below:

It was designed by artist Herb Trimpe and first appeared on this cover in 1968. The idea was simple, the execution took time, but as I wasn’t being asked to come up with a new idea, it was mostly a matter of putting the time into the drawing, perspective and inking. This was all done by hand, needless to say. It appeared on issue 157 dated November, 2004.
