This satirical work recreates the real world of 1968, as seen by characters from the Batman television show (IMDb | Wiki). In order to make the satire work, I did an obsessive amount of visual research. The likenesses of my drawings are based on Yvonne Craig -- as well as Adam West, Burt Ward, Caesar Romero. The sound effects are vector recreations of those used in the show. Artistically, I was aiming for drawings of the show actors as inked by Dan DeCarlo (Wiki | Pinup Art | Amazon: The Art of Dan DeCarlo ), colored with the hand-separated, large line-screen technology that was standard of the era.

Real life got in the way of IF this week. As part of my new job/freelance search, a major IE6 CSS bug on my website got "discovered" during an interview! The good news is that my site is finally optimized for IE6 without trashing in the CSS-compliant browsers ... just in time for Vista/IE7. Nice to see hard work pay off in the end.
