Ultimate Death's Headby =LiamSharp

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Comics / Other

This was produced for a recent pitch to Marvel, originally as an "Ultimate Death's Head" mini series. It's been 15 years sinse I drew Death's Head II for Marvel UK - my biggest ever success - and I really relished the idea of returning to the character, but adding a modern spin, kind of rebooting the whole series.
Sadly it wasn't to be. But enjoy the art!

Very best,

Liam.

i remember when deaths had 2 first came out and became a big fan within 2 issues.your art raised the bar and the storys were great.i loved the fight with wolverine.its a shame marvel let the character go but must say thanks for the memorys.

I was a fan of your run on Death's Head II which I read in Overkill. This idea did look promising and may have been great as a series.

I'm sorry this wasn't published. DHII was one of my favorite titles, it was different and had a great sci-fi feel. I really enjoyed the mini-series and the regular series. Great character, great art.

???? uh, not really diggin the design, waaaaaay to diffrent than the Death's Head of old.

It's all subjective, but fear not - it's not happening anyway.

I designed DHII, never much cared for DHI. This one was a reboot of my design, so if you liked the original DHII will always be inferior!

Take care,

And well, it was kinda a rude statement, ultimate U redesigns the marvel universe anyway, i'm just kinda a transformers fan and loved the original character, and lost intrest by Death'shead 2.0 and 3.0

You're not alone - loads of people didn't like my design, but at the time the sales jumped from 30,000 to almost half a million, so clearly a great many more did!

I guess that debate will always rage!

Take care, and DHII or not, you might like some of the other stuff in my gallery.

Best,

L.
