Weird projects part 2: CODSWALLOP

Once upon a time (October 2018), I decided I wanted to make a Des Fishman wrestling comic. Now, I don't know a lot about modern American wrestling, but I have read "The Wrestling" by Simon Garfield, about the history of British TV wrestling, thus I am an expert and felt that this was a project well within my reach. Well, as it turns out, I never finished it. I wrote and thumbnailed half the script, then decided to do something else. I don't remember what else. I just remember thinking that my friend Warwick Johnson Cadwell would draw it better, so why bother. But there are two pages of it that show what it might have been... and might be again! EXCLUSIVELY FOR YOU!

[My dear girlfriend, Laura Snapes, came up with the title. Her greatest work to date.]

Below, Warwick's original sketches for the book. He was busy working on character designs an animated movie at the time, that was nominated for an Oscar. One day we'll team up, I hope. He's a genius. No one draws crazy action like him.
