THE LAST OF MY PINK PANTHER COMIC BOOK COVERS (Unpublished).

This was the last PINK PANTHER comic book cover I ever did for Editorial VID, which never saw the light of day.  Late in 1992, I was informed that the comic book branch was closing up shop and all artists and writers were being let go. However, VID  kept publishing and reprinting the same stories for several years more, without paying any royalties.

This is the original pen and ink artwork. I always signed my drawings even when I knew they would be white-washed out by the editors.

The cover was a reworking of my original NOVARO cover for DOMINGOS ALEGRES No. 2-1202, published in September 30, 1977. I substituted the Inspector for the generic little guy.

"THINK PINK!-The DePatie-Freleng Story" is a MUST if you like animation and love the Pink Panther!

THINK PINK!- THE DePATIE-FRELENG STORY is available at last!
The author Mark Arnold has accomplished a wonderful and amazing work of research with it! 
It boggles the mind to think of the amount of hours he must've spent reading and classifying material for the book! But the end result is truly worth it! Everything, and I do mean everything you wanted to know about the Pink Panther and the DePatie-Freleng studio, is right here at your fingertips. It is nothing short of incredible! Mr. Arnold deserves all kinds of credit for doing the footwork and research for all of us Pink Panther and Depatie-Freleng enthusiasts! It is a reference book to be cherished and consulted time and time again! The book is chockfull of tidbits and never before revealed pieces of information that every fan will undoubtedly relish for many years to come. If you like The Pink Panther, the Inspector, the Ant and the Aardvark, and all the other DePatie-Freleng cartoons, then this book is a must. If you just simply love animation, more so. The book covers everything from comic books, to theatrical cartoons, feature films, TV specials, merchandising, unrealized projects and inside stories on the people who created the cartoons. Lots of pictures illustrate the extensive oeuvre, and a full filmography and bibliography complete this lavish edition. You'll be glad you got it! Think Pink: The Story of DePatie-Freleng

Most of all, I enjoyed browsing through Mark Arnold's THINK PINK! and finding my name mentioned regarding my 15+ years writing and drawing The Pink Panther comics for the Latin American market!
