Skeletal Cops

Skeletal Cops is the first serious comic book that I ever produced. Hand drawn and assembled.

Only one copy in existence and they are the most valuable comics I own.

The cover for Skeletal Cops issue #1 - Universal Comics 1989

Issue #2 of Skeletal Cops came out the following year in 1990. This time there's more of the Skeletal Cops story and a couple little extras.
The center spread has some "cop files". There are a lot of ads!

The Spy-Bot comic has nothing to do with the Skeletal Cops story despite a man with a large brimmed hat being in it.

I unfortunately never ended up finishing the original 4 issue mini-series of Skeletal Cops. I don't even know if I came up with more ideas. There certainly were some new characters being introduced, but I cannot imagine how the 3rd and 4th issues would have been like.

The main characters in Skeletal Cops are robotic skeletons that were highly inspired by the Terminator movie, Robocop and the cartoon series with the line of toys called C.O.P.S.

Here are some of the original character designs.

A couple of years later I "rebooted" Skeletal Cops. I was highly influenced by Marvel comics at this time.

I was emulating all the artists I admired at the time with these updated aesthetics.
