Wally Wood II

Bucky Ruckus

This is a sketch of Bucky Ruckus, one of Woody's favorite characters. I think he really wanted to be Bucky. Lord knows he drew Bucky often enough. Woody had a Bucky-like component to his personality, but it only came out in his drawings. Personally he was soft-spoken, gentle and generous. However, he was also terribly self-destructive, and this he exhibited through his drinking, smoking, and his wretched diet.

I have some other examples of Woody's art in my collection, including a page of The Wizard King, and an illustration from Galaxy magazine. Coming soon to a web site near you.
