"I Was a Teenage M.O.D.O.K." by Wayne Quackenbush

Mr. Quackenbush strikes again with even more MODOK.  He sent us a great little collection of images yesterday and we'll keep on sharing them here.  Because the desire share MODOK artwork is strong with us, just as the desire to make MODOK artwork is strong within you.

Thanks again for the submissions Wayne, You rule.

"M.O.D.O.K. Sketch in Clay" by Martha Antaya

Over the years we've received many MODOK images that aren't born on a monitor or a sheet of paper. Personally I get pumped whenever I see one.  So big thanks to Martha for breaking out the clay and showing our beloved mental organism some love.

We've got a couple more posts in from Martha, so keep your eyes on the blog in the days for more.

Wayne, proprietor of Annex Comics here in Newport, RI, hosts a drawing group on Facebook called the Annex Art Society, wherein each month he invites all to 30 day drawing challenges.  Each month has different prompts for each day and for March, he chose quotes.  This awesome butterfly MODOK was inspired by a quote from Nicole Kidman, even.  Hey you never know.


Day 15: "It's so bizarre, I'm not scared of snakes or spiders. But I'm scared of butterflies. There is something eerie about them. Something weird!"

We received this expressively inked MODOK via Annex Comics, a local comic shop up here in Newport, RI, where one of your MMM curators hangs his hat these days. Justin is one of the talented fellows who frequents the place and has decided to join in the fun this year. So how about it, the rest of you Annex folks? Any MODOKs brewing? Thanks for the dynamic piece, Justin, and thank you Annex! for passing it along.
