So, the story I was looking for yesterday was the story of how this came about.
Can't find it.
So excuse the "Alan Moore From Hell commentary" here (ya know, Alan's "it's from this book, but I can't remember where, and I'm to lazy to go look it up.") .
I thought it was from the Blog & Mail, but I couldn't find it, so it might be from one of the Yahoo group Q&As.
Anyway, as I recall, these came about because Deni left Dave, and Dave needed money to buy out her half of Aardvark-Vanaheim. So he called Jim Shooter, who got him the Fanfare gig.
Next Time: Hobbs. And Jingles. Sitting in a tree?

Some of Dave's best Neal Adams, Gene Colan, and Gene Day pastiches (or, homages). One of the best ever artists at recreating other artist's styles.
Cylops is a Don Simpson riff, isn't it?
