Aaron Neathery is a freelance artist, graphic designer, and cartoonist, as you can clearly see here. The winsome and boyishly handsome Neathery, with eyes as blue as the Texas sky and biceps as big as Beaumont, has drawn an extended ten-day storyline for "Narbonic".

Neathery Week-And-A-Half

James Rice complains that his friends and coworkers mocked him after I called his Artie paper doll the cutest thing that could possibly exist, but that doesn't prevent it from being the most well-crafted and dressable piece of Narbonic paper art to date. He himself is a vast studly bull of a man with abs of granite and a chin from which the Air Force can launch jets, which is why he can get away with playing with dolls in his spare time.

On the surface, Andre Richard seems the sensitive heartthrob type, bubbling with childlike whimsy, not unlike Johnny Depp. But beware, for dark passions roil beneath his charming surface. Andre draws "Jeepers" on Girlamatic.com, and he was kind enough to create a week of Narbonic strips in his own unmistakable style. Without further ado, I give you... NARBONIC BABIES!
