OK. September and October were both a bit more hectic with travel and family drama and work than I anticipated, but I'm officially working on Episode 3. Still love this issue as much as I remembered, can't wait to talk about it! #RocketRaccoon #MikeMignola #BillMantlo

A few more panels of Rocky doin' his thing.

...his thing at this time mostly being speaking in over-the-top British dialect and smoking.

In inauspicious beginning for Rocket, but things are gonna look a little different next episode!

@bunninaround @BrynkBunny Yes! As I mention it in the episode, Its generally acknowledged that writer Bill Mantlo's initial inspiration for Rocket was "Rocky Raccoon" by the Beatles- which explains why in his name in this first appearance was "Rocky," and presumably, why he spoke with a British accent!

[Heroic Beasts @heroicbeasts]

@BrynkBunny Special thanks to @banditkir for creating the Heroic Beasts theme! Love that '80s vibe. Check out his other work at:
