Rambo by Mike Giblin. Mike said he would normally ink his morning sketch, but he didn’t because he liked the looseness of the piece. I agree.

It wouldn’t be hard to guess that I’m a huge fan of Tulsa King starring Sylvester Stallone and created by Taylor Sheridan. I’m looking forward to season two. Above and below is the coverage provided by TV Guide before the show hit the airwaves. Click on the photo below to get a Tulsa King-sized version. 
Two Vintage INTERVIEW Interviews with Sly Stallone!
As I was going through the Zablo vault I came across the October 1994 issue of Interview magazine. The photo header is NOT that cover. Instead the picture above is of the September 1985 issue of Interview. Let me explain.
As I was going through the vault, I found my copy of the October ’94 issue. In it there is a new (for that time) interview with Sly Stallone. But instead of a new photo, they reprinted the cover of the September ’85 issue. Well, as it turns out, you can read that interview here. (By the way, I love the cover art of Sly,)
Getting back to the Interview October 1994 issue. Below is that interview. Click on the photos to see a larger version, Enjoy! – Craig
PS – The thing that really struck me about the interview below is the question about Sly always having a sense of mortality. Even then Sly new that time was our greatest currency.

Ray-Anthony Height Gets Carter (with an interesting story)
Today we have Sly Stallone as Jack Carter by Ray-Anthony Height. It’s my third piece from Ray-Anthony and it has an interesting story.
My buddy, John Higashi was at a convention. He saw this piece on display at Ray-Anthony’s table. John told RAH that he had a buddy, Craig Zablo, who collected Stallone sketches. RAH said that the art was originally for Craig, but that it got lost. So he refunded Craig the money. RAH later found the sketch and decided to see if it would sell at the convention.
And it did.
I’ve darkened the piece a bit for display here
