Dave Johnson.

I'm still in shock.

My bro, John Beatty, recently gifted me with this cool Dave Johnson "Rocky" sketch.

Big Beatty knew that I was a huge fan of the Potentate's art. (Who isn't?)

Probably best known for his 100 Bullets covers, Reverand Dave has also done a bunch of other comic and animation work... not to mention his Drink and Draw and Card Bored creations.

Of course it's all part of his master plan to rule the world.

Looks like I'm gonna have to put Big Beatty on Sushi Standby a few more times to return this favor!

Big thanks to Dave and John!
