This is Part 2 of a three issue series! Tune in this up coming Wednesday for the final page!

About 9 months ago, during initial planning of Missing Number, I (the sketch artist) sat down with a semi-pro comic book artist friend of mine to discuss the characters.  Dispite his best efforts, my art level only grew slowly, to the point where I decided the best way to practice working on the comic was to actually work on the comic.  So Missing Number was launched.

This is why the art so drastically changed during the first 10 issues.  Everyone here at Missing Number was honing and building our art.  And we always realize there’s another step to make!

Anyway, Allan (the comic book artist) kept interest in Missing Number, and has been a virtual fount of creative criticism along the way.  When we approached him to do a out-of-character tounge-in-cheek guest strip, he gladly accepted, and work has been ongoing from there.

We here at Missing Number HQ are pleased to present part one of the Deus Ex Machina Guest Strip.  To quote the drink dispensers from the Heart of Gold… Share and Enjoy!

Allan and I have worked on many art projects before… he’s a really fun guy.  The last project we conspired upon was a design-ey art piece starring Nikola Tesla and Alexander Graham Bell, celebrating wireless communication through the years.  You can see the finished piece here: <a href=”http://hg80design.com/images/circuitry.jpg”>http://hg80design.com/images/circuitry.jpg</a>
