Artist's Comments

I'm going to kick myself for not doing the final scene with Narrator/Jack & Marla every time I look at these.

Anyway, Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club put into context of a pseudo kids-story-book for a class project.

I thought it was really fitting for the genre. Fight Club explores the idea of finding your place in the world, isolation, overcoming loneliness and ultimately, balancing between one's search for personal value or society's perception of success. All of which conveniently fall within the realm of "growing up".


Trivia:
- Instead of meeting Tyler on the plane they meet on the bus.
- They have the same backpack.
- Penguin is Jack's ' power animal'
- Tyler's shirt says "You're not special"
- Their first 'fight club' is held in the school's boys locker room.
- Marla Singer was going to be a little Goth girl.
- At the end I was planning to have them burning down the school as opposed to dismantling banks globally.

That's a really cool concept. Hmm, now i'm going to wondering about what other stories could be turned small...

Love the lighting in the locker scene.

A group of Knights set off to slay the Dragon, only to screw up, get insulted by their King and horribly die at the hands of the Dragon. Will they survive? Hell no.

I would very much love to see more artwork based on this idea! I think "Jack" and Tyler are both very awesome in this style and would be ecstatic to see your take on Marla, and maybe even Robert Paulson. ;)

Very awesome work. I'm, personally, only familiar with the movie and not the book, but just from these two drawings it seems like you've captured the spirit of the story quite well.
