#beaky buzzard

Ah distinctly I remember, a certain carrion family member. With dopey eye and silly banter, like "Nope nope nope." while bashful he stare upon the floor. Uncertain I scribed from the visage in my mind, his image upon the board. This was definitely not Beaky Buzzard, this was truth and nothing more...(felt Poe-ish today)

It’s that time once again for @davealvarezstudios-blog ’s LOONEYUNE prompt challenge, and like with last year’s drawing challenge, I’ll only do a select number of prompts. For the Bob Clampett prompt, I decided to draw one of his creations Beaky Buzzard interacting with an actual turkey vulture.

FOUR COLOR PORKY

FOUR COLOR #16, 1942

Dell Publishing Co., Inc

"Four Color was basically Dell Comics‘ catch-all title, sometimes a try-out. sometimes one-shots, sometimes licensed properties, sometimes things that would be spun off into their own series, sometimes a combination of all of them. Never with any frequency, and eventually the numbering was inconsistent, it lasted for about 1354 issues over a span of 23 years..." continued

Created by Bob Clampett in 1942, Beaky appeared in only four classic WB cartoons.

Bugs Bunny Gets the Boid (1942)

The Bashful Buzzard (1945)

The Lion's Busy (1950)

Strife with Father (1950)
