Bio on Spycons

A Spycon is a humanoid type of spider species.
Their home planet Spyconia is in the Milky Way Galaxy
The Spycons are one of the oldest races of civilizations.
Their culture and society was highly advanced in the sciences and the arts. Until the time of galactic war came from the other neighboring systems that wanted control of Spyconia’s underground mining facilities which were filled with high powered energy crystals.
The planet was ravaged for years, and the Spycons decided to train a league of warriors to protect Spyconia. They were trained to be the most lethal of warriors in the Galaxy.
Once the order of the Seeker’s was established their main mission was to establish peace through out the Milky Way Galaxy. Through time the other neighboring races had their best and finest warriors join the League of Seekers.
UPDATE TO SEEKERS:
Changed the mouth to a lizardish. ANd changed the eyes .
less Aliens looking. Added Loincloth and Belt for Weapons
and such. The Spycon is transporting to this location from across the Galaxy. The pieces of ground are floatin up with bubble effect. Seeker is going to get his A$$ handed to him.
I am having 3 of these Spycon Attack Knight Seeker.

Omicron - the Greek letter ?. Omicron is frequently used to designate the thirteenth star in a constellation group, using a combination of magnitude and position.[1] Stars with the omicron designation include Omicron Andromedae, Omicron Ceti, and Omicron Persei, which is well-known due to its use in science fiction, including Star Trek and Futurama.

When coming up with this guy. mmmmm I think I needed a Snowshadow type to lead the Security Force - Black River
Founder and CEO Derrick King. I’m playing off the Eric Prince of Blackwater. Derrick will be a Type of robot.
Derrick King will never be. Just countless robots doing his dirtywork. Omicron will be the bad ass swordsman to fight it out with Knight Seeker. Later in the story…..

This is the only other main character i am using from Mr Coopers World.

Character Bio Update

Drik B. King (born June 2 1969, Flint, Michigan) is the founder and sole owner of the private military company, formerly Blackriver Worldwide.
Testifying before the United States Senate Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on October 2, 2006, he gave his title as chairman and CEO of the King Group and Blackriver Worldwide, then named Blackriver USA.[3].
However, in response to controversy surrounding the September 19, 2004 Blackriver Basra Iraq shootings and its subsequent FBI investigation, King has emerged from media seclusion to grant more on-camera interviews. Some noteworthy appearances where he discusses the incident include:

DEADPOOL (Marvel) sketch for Con.
I did this on a comic that comes w/ a white cover for the artist at conventions to do quick sketches. I had to take this one home that night to give it a little more detail . I scratched the top and bottom of the cover to the white of the paper for the graphic to bleed.

BLAIR SMITH - COLORS - (Gouache) -Gouache is an opaque watercolor paint. Whereas transparent watercolors allow you to see the “white” of the paper below the paint, gouache can be applied in solid colors. This allows an artist to paint in layers from dark to light.

I also worked W/ Shawn Alleyne on A Colaboriation Piece … You Guessed it…. DEADPOOL AGAIN
I printed his scan directly onto comic book layout paper. Than i went to town after a little research on chinese wash painting.

My First Published Comic Book Work
Writer Mike San Giacomo presents 32 stories taking place over 50 years at a Drive-In Theater, featuring 21 artists from around the world. Mirroring life and the cinema with tales of crime, romance, science fiction, musicals, even a western, each stand-alone story combines to create a single novel with a powerful, shocking finale you won’t forget!

Wizard Universe Article

Product Description
Tales of the Starlight Drive-In is journalist-comic writer Michael San Giacomo’s tribute to that great American institution - the drive-in theater with 26 stand-alone stories set in a drive-in theater from 1955 through 2005. While each can be read separately, together they form one complete tale of the rise and fall (and rise?) of a drive-in through stories that cross all genres including humor, romance, crime, horror, adventure, western and even super-heroes. Each story has a relationship with the movie playing at the time. Most are in color, except for those before 1962 and a few special stories that just needed to be black and white. Characters come and go, but Neil the projectionist is the rock who is there all the way through from the beginning to the end.

Mike also wrote (PHANTON JACK )

Newspaper reporter Jack Baxter can turn invisible. Not exactly a hero, Baxter uses his powers to scoop other reporters. His test of fire comes when his brother is captured in Iraq. Jack rescues his brother with the aid of the beautiful Madison Blue, an invisible secret agent for the group ‘Miscellaneous’. Stories lean toward realistic portrayals of characters in modern world, not typical super-hero fare. The series ran in 2005 from Image and returned in November, 2007, from Atomic Pop Art Entertainment with ABSOLUTE PHANTOM JACK, which collects all the previous Image comics and about 80 pages of new stories. The all-new, 110-page graphic novel PHANTOM JACK: THE NOWHERE MAN AGENDA, where Jack confronts his evil opposite and faces his final fate, will be published as soon as a new publisher is found.
