Comic Artist inspiration!
10 years ago

Earlier this year I shared on our Facebook page my enthusiasm for British artist Mike Noble's fantastic work. Check out the cool wolflike alien from his comic adaptation of a story from "The Tomorrow People"!

I started researching this artist when I found out he'd done comic work for "Robin of Sherwood" and realized what incredible black-and-white art he does...not to mention layouts!

He also did comic stories for shows like "Space: 1999", "The Famous Five", and many others.
I've tracked down a good deal of his art on an excellent website "John's Look-out"

that is attempting to collect issues of "Look-in, The Junior TV Times" where Mike Noble's work was published.
Great inspiration worth studying!

"The Tomorrow People" was a very interesting (if low-budget) take on an idea that was sadly rather distorted when turned into a U.S. TV series.

Never saw the American version, but did find the 1970's British show at our library! Some of the storylines and action were good, but the special effects were....painful. I found Mike Noble's comic adaptations more exciting and with much better-designed aliens, even if the plots were still goofy!
the style reminds me of Hal Foster's Prince Valiant comic

Another one of the greats!
