The deviantARTist known as Space Coyote recently received copius praise and accolades for her anime-renditions of characters from The Simpsons and Futurama. Now, it seems her drawings have also captured the attention of both Bongo Comics and 20th Century Fox. According to a message on her deviantART page, Space Coyote has been hired to draw for a one-off Simpsons comic in manga style for Bongo Comics. She further writes that 20th Century Fox has also contacted her about doing work, possibly for the newly-resurrected Futurama.

She also writes on her Live Journal that the details are still being hammered out, but needless to say, this is a great example of a relatively unknown artist getting some decent exposure through this crazy thing called the Web. She has also worked on the Web comic Saturnalia since 2002, which is also worth checking out.

You know, you people should be thankful I have no life and spend way too much time on the internet. If it weren't for that, I never would have stumbled upon the deviantART page of Doc Hammer, writer and voice artist on The Venture Bros.

While I like pretty much everything Adult Swim offers, The Venture Bros. deserves special praise because it's one of the only hand drawn shows on during that block that has the mark of true artisans. The drawings, animation and writing are all top notch, and when you check out Hammer's oil paintings, you'll see why. The man is scary talented, and is allegedly self taught, or so says Wikipedia, a site I don't trust even though it's fast becoming the main information source for Web surfers. But I digress.
