This is the first of three character designs I did for the fine gentlemen over at Double D Comics for their series entitled "THE EH TEAM".... which just so happens to be the greatest series about Canadian superheroes ever made!

What about "Alpha Flight" you say? FUCK ALPHA FLIGHT!!! I got your Alpha Flight right here!!! That bunch of pansies can't hold a candle to the sheer awesome-ostity that is THE EH TEAM!!!

Behold the first hero of THE EH TEAM, The Flag!!!

*Brian T. Hunter lived the great Canadian dream. He hunted, fished and spent his waking hours in the great outdoors and got paid for it. Known throughout Canada as the ultimate professional hunter and angler, Brian has hit national stardom as the host of his own Television shows: “Beaver Hunting (and other small game)”, and, “Smells Like Fish”. Recently, in a fishing expedition, Hunter experienced a boating accident which had him emerge from the waters with the original Canadian flag, thought lost by the Canadian Parliament in 1965. After intense testing by the new corporate Canadian Government, it was discovered that while wearing the flag around his body, Hunter was magically bestowed immeasurable powers. Along with amplifying his five senses which in turn enhances his natural abilities as a hunter, the flag around his waist has also grants him super-human strength, durability, and the power of flight...*

For more info on The Flag and the rest of THE EH TEAM, be sure to check out the Double D Comics website and forum here :pointr: [link] . Tell 'em I sent ya!

All of these characters as well as the concept of The EH Team were all created by a pair of writers from Canada. All I did was draw some pretty pictures. So if you're at all offended by the stereotypes then blame your fellow Canadians. ;)

i don't necessarily(not sure if it's spelled right) blame them for the steriotypes, but it gets unbearable having to deal wit that stuff, especially because i have to live in indiana right now and i hate the ppl here cuz they constantly give me stupid comments and questions, as for my previous comment i was in a bad mood so no disrespect
