My name is Bob and I write and draw an autobiographical webcomic named Egomaniac. Because that's what the internet needs. More autobiographical webcomics. I've also been known to draw the occasional superhero. Even more than that you can expect wrestlers aaaand...well that's pretty much all I've got.
I was asked a looong time ago if I could draw Dean Ambrose, so I did. When I was asked, I had never seen him wrestle. Now that I’ve had the chance I figured it was as good a time as any.
Everyone talks about how his facial expressions are really good, and while I think they might be a bit TOO exaggerated, I think he’s always worth watching.
Dude got to have a singles match with THE UNDERTAKER. Who does that nowadays?
Just sketching around and I liked the Cody Rhodes drawing enough that I colored it. This the third time I’ve drawn Cody, but the first time I drew his face!
You know, I just realized I never mentioned that the Complete WWF Video Guide Volume 2 is available for sale now! I’ve got over 80 drawings in there, including the front and back covers. Here’s a few. The rest’ll cost ya! So check it out if you’re so inclined. It covers the WWF from 1990-1993. It’s also available on the Kindle through Amazon.
Also, Volume 1 is still available. It covers 1985-1989. And also on the Kindle.
And in case you were wondering, Volume 3 is looking like it’ll be ready in March or so.
So I made an about.me page (about.me/bobdahlstrom) just to keep everything together. You can link your twitter to it (@robertdahlstrom) and it shows who you interact with.
Haha, I like that I talk to comic people and wrestlers talk to me.
What’s that? Volume 2 of the book seems to be completed? Yep, looks that way.
No comic today kids, (maybe tomorrow or next week ah it doesn’t matter) because today I am proud to announce that the book is available!
Look at how happy Jenn’s penguin is to see this thing! I know you should be too!
So yes! If you’re interested in a book that has reviews for every pay per view and WWF tape release from 1985-1989, this is very much the book for you.
Why am I promoting this book? Well, I drew almost seventy different pieces for it!
The book is done! Well, at least all the artwork is. And here’s a look at every drawing! It’s not too small is it, haha.
You didn’t think I’d really post everything I drew for it, would you?
Time to spread the news, kids.
I’m drawing a book!
Yes, my dumb ol’ wrestler drawings got someone’s interest, and now we’re working together on a book . It’s the first of many planned volumes covering the complete history of wwf/wwe video and DVD releases, this from 1985-1989. I dunno if I’m drawing all of the future releases, but I know I’m doing this one! We’re looking at an early September release, and it will feature…I wanna say close to fifty drawings from me? Something like that!
It’s a lot of work but I hope you guys are interested. It’s gonna be a print on demand book from lulu, and eventually available on Kindle. Here’s a couple screenshots of some of the artwork from me. I’m certainly not gonna post all of the drawings on here….The first taste is free, then you gotta pay up! But I’ll probably post more as things get more and more completed.
And if you don’t like my background, here’s one of Bray on white. I’m a sucker for the classics, I guess.
I really liked Husky Harris when he was around. I hated his name, but I liked the character and I liked what he was able to do for a man that build.
That being said, I’m really excited to see more of Bray Wyatt. I haven’t seen much short of a few promos on youtube, but a character like that definitely gets me. Of course there’s the Max Cady/Waylon Mercy comparisons, but I am very okay with a character like that on tv.
