Escape To Victory has passion, power and genuine pace… Escape To Victory… has an ending worthy of a World Cup final.

Wildammo.com came up with a cool idea. They created movie posters featuring the celebrities that were originally scheduled to appear in the starring roles. So we have Stallone and Schwarzenegger in Face Off, Will Smith in the Matrix and many others. It’s a great idea and really well executed. You can see all of the posters by clicking here.
Thanks to Mark Evanier for the original link.
How can anyone not love the new poster for The Expendables? Want to see a version so big the name should be changed to The Expandables? Click here and check out IMPAwards.com.
Mark Pennington graduated from the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in 1985. Upon graduation Mark became a toy designer at Hasbro. Mark created designs for the G.I. Joe line of action figures including a Rocky Balboa GI Joe that never saw production! Mark’s first work as an inker in the comic book industry was for SQP on Judge Dredd!
When I started collecting original sketches of Sly, Mark was one of the first artists that I approached. I was excited to get this Rambo head sketch from him. Earlier this month I posted Mark’s take on Sly as Rambo.
Today we have Mark’s take on Sly as an older Jack Carter. Although we’ll never get a sequel to Get Carter, and it is not a perfect film, Get Carter remains one of my favorite Stallone movies. Sly was perfect as the “bad brother” — the man who knew that he’d taken the wrong path and saw a chance at redemption by finding his brother’s killer and keeping his niece and sister-in-law safe. So I thought it would be cool to get Mark to draw Sly as Jack Carter, but with some more years on him… sort of like Clint Eastwood’s performance in Unforgiven. I couldn’t be happier with the result!
