    Default Stephen Platt?

    Hey guys, not sure if this the right place for this question.

    Anyways, does anybody know what happened to Stephen Platt? After Soul Saga he seems to have vanished. Does anybody know what he's up too?:D

    Thanks

    I believe he's working in the animation and/or computer industries, providing artwork on things like storyboards and concepts. I think that was what Rob Liefeld said over on his message board awhile back when someone asked the same question.

    If you've ever thought about trying Savage Dragon but the high issue numbers intimidate you, why not visit the SD Wiki? You'll catch up in no time.

    Gavin Higginbotham, BotF- HUH!? I guess he took the Joe Mad route. I'd love to see some of his concept artwork.

    Anybody else?

    Karl Altstaetter, another Extreme veteran, had this to say; I bumped into Steve awhile back at an art class..he is doing movie and music video concept and storyboard stuff...He mentioned he would like to do comics again..but only under certain circumstances...comic art is his true calling...I hope he get's back to it..

    Wouldn't it be interesting to see him return, in some fashion, to MOON KNIGHT...?

    Definately! Even a cover would be sweet to see.

    Would be cool if he made a comeback with a bit better art. I aint gonna lie, I was always impressed with his 'splatter' style veins and drapery.....but looking at his old art now, its just cheesy....I think if he improved it would be really neat to see his stuff!

    I personally like Stephen Platt's style. He had that bad-ass style of art. Sometimes eyes would be very crooked in a front face shot, but overrall his art was cool.:)

    Here is a new DVD released of Stephen Platt. On how to pencil a comic page.
    There are some nice pics in the gallery.

    I read a couple issues of Soul Saga, his artwork seemed very different. Very clean compared to Prophet.

    On a related note, a guy selling comics at the Emerald City Comicon complained about Soul Saga and Battle Chasers didn't have endings. He has a point. Just finish the thing.

    I'd love to read the last issue of Soul Saga. I've heard rumors that there is a German edition of #6, but have never been able to confirm...
