Some cool lineart images from G.I. Joe: Origins

Mike Hawthorne, great artist from the G.I. Joe: Origins series, has posted some nice images of line art (and one piece of finished art) on his blog.  If Joe fans haven’t bookmarked that page yet, they really should, he often posts some great material on there after the books hit retail.

Check out his latest two posts here and here, and take a peek at the images below as well.
