A classic baby MODOK moment from the awful 90s Iron Man cartoon: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZErgM2wtmq0

Damn, Chaz, that Li’l Darkseid is epic!

Li’l Arkham Asylum aces it purely based on the Riddler asking “Why? Why? Why?”

I think I would buy almost every one of those if they were ongoing.

Agreed DK, especially Li’l Hulk and Deadpool!

That Doom Patrol picture has quite possibly become my favorite thing ever.

All excellent but 3 just top it – lil darkseid, nick perk’s peanuts one which is so cool and the lil boys which part of me wishes had been drawn like that but the violence would have been a bit weird.

WOW I’m so impressed, Liners! These are more than a lil’ AWESOME!

Li’l Boys becomes far, far more disturbing (in a good, presumably artist-intended way) if you’re familiar with the backstory of Mother’s Milk.

MAN! I HATE myself for being too busy these past few weeks. These are SO good. Congrats guy! Love them.

Wow, that felt like a Lil’ Snark Blocker. Sweet stuff everyone.

Love these. Deadman A+.

Kinda disappointed my “Lil’ Sugar and Spike” twitter suggestion didn’t get used. Was hoping someone would have caught on and had the misadventures of two embryos or a couple sets of irresponsible parents…

ha ha these are superb guys well done everyone!!! love what you did with us Xum

Not a big fan of the “lil” stuff, but I’d get that Lil’Darksied and the New Gods

Where can I get a “YOU’RE NO TRUMBULL” t-shirt?

Lil Deadman was great, way better than I anticipated when I suggested it!

Sad none of my suggestions were drawn, but I’m really impressed with all of these. Deadman was amazing.

There is only one proper response to a baby M.O.D.O.K.:

“Where are Mommy and Daddy? I want to make them EAT you!”

All sorts of strange things can happen by the light of a rack of Worlds of Warcraft servers…

Boston the Friendly Ghost might be one of my favorite things ever; I just hope Charlie Brown gets to remember some of it!

And I SO want to see the next panel of Lil’ Sirens, where Harwee clobbers ‘Lina just as she pounces on Robin…

The creepiest thing about Arkham DayCare? Bruce checking them out from his limo. And I know I’m gonna feel stupid for asking this, but who’s the one with the inhaler? Ivy’s expression is just perfect though.

I know nothing about Luther Strode — is there some sort of Flying Spaghetti Monster joke in it? ‘Cause it looks like we are now missing one Noodly Appendage.

Who came up with that nursery rhyme — Xander?

NONE of us are John Trumbull — until that dark day when the Man comes for him — then we are ALL John Trumbull, right? (I know — I missed the great political debate last week, so I’m playing radical catch-up)

But Lil Thea, Mic? the Mite, and even Prodigy Xum were just adorable. And is that a Dread Lord in Diapers as well?

Now, can I borrow Lil’ Deadman to reanimate some of my dead suggestions? Thanks!

Nick, part 1: This is great. I especially like the cyclical nature of the piece. Good that you stuck with a “not so li’l” Grant Morrison since a “li’l bit of acid” is involved…

Bill: Amazing characterization and details going on here, especially the look on Reed’s face, the pacifier for Black Bolt, and Tony “going for the high score.”

Note to Self: 34 characters on a single cover? How does George Pe’rez do this (and more) on a regular basis? Thanks to all the Liners for the references; shall we all paly a game of “Who’s That?”

Thea: These girls are so cute! The expressions, colors, and body language are top-notch. Look out, Robin! (Or should it be: “Look out, Li’l Selina!”)

Brendan, part 1: Great details here as well, especially having Orion acting out, and the Mobius High-Chair.

John: Funny piece. My son doesn’t get it, but I think one doesn’t really “get” Schulz until they are older. Good that you went with your original instincts with the blender; it works much better than the Facebooked suggestions…

Josh: Spaghetti tends to disagree with me as well. Great idea on how to keep the “bloody face” motif on this “underage” version.

Mic?: This is amazing beyond words. I’m only 1/3 of the way through “The Boys” run but I know you’ve captured the essence of the characters perfectly. That’s red finger paint, right? Right?

Chaz: More disturbing ginchy brilliance. And the blonde lock with the pink bow was completely unexpected. So *that’s* the reason for the blue helmet…

Brendan, part 2: Li’l M.O.D.O.K. is cute and threatening. I like the twist of his “flying” chair.

Nick, part 2: About time Charlie Brown got his due. Brilliant idea. Kudos to Brian for not giving it away. The GIF effect adds a nice suspenceful touch as well.

Paul: I really love the details for this piece: the annoying Li’l Riddler; the penguin, the cat, and the croc on the wall; Li’l Harley holding out her hand and her heart to an oblivious L’il J; the clever way to depict a Li’l Clayface and Li’l Two-Face; and Li’l Bruce Wayne riding by under the bats. All rendered with that same zany intensity (“zain-tensity”?) from your previous works.

Axel: This would probably be even funnier to me if I had been following “Buffy.” Always blown away by your painting talent. Say, wouldn’t this be a “Sugar and Spike” piece of sorts?

Marco: This is great. The swingset panel made me choke on my coffee. My keyboard will be sticky for weeks. Hilarious!

Sean: Now that’s commitment, doing different versions of the Li’l Prophets. I especially like the sense of movement in the second piece. Say, is that “Krypto”?

Awwwww-some work this week (yes, someone had to say it).

Xum
(Who is going to trademark “zain-tensity” so he can pay himself a nickel every time he uses it…}

NONE of us are John Trumbull — until that dark day when the Man comes for him — then we are ALL John Trumbull, right? (I know — I missed the great political debate last week, so I’m playing radical catch-up)

Dear God, I hope not. I would never wish the sorry fate of being John Trumbull upon you, Becca…

BeccaBlast: I think the kid with the inhaler is Calendar Man. The tally marks on the wall next to him are my reason for thinking this, but I could very well be wrong.

Deadpool and Hulk tie with Deadman Charlie Brown for my winners this time.

I thought the inhaler kid was Bane, but only Phil knows for sure…

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww…

Er… only PAUL knows for sure (way too early in the morning for me…)

Apologies, Paul.

Yeah, Inhaler Kid is supposed to be Bane. He was fat and had an inhaler in the movie too. The tallies were supposed to be for Mr. Zsasz, but I for the life of me could not find a way to Li’l him without someone knocking on my door later.

Super work. I think I need to rub my face in a pug now.

[...] All part of ‘lil week at “The Line It Is Drawn” [...]

Cynthia “Thea” Rodgers made me smile with hers

[...] Harley Quinn, Catwoman and Poison Ivy as little rambunctious little girls. The piece was part of CBM‘s The Line it is Drawn. I like how Harley is about to smash that bird with her giant [...]

While I absolutely love Li’l Bane and his inhaler, I think my favorite thing is this TLIID is the lower-case “a” on Li’l Captain America’s head in Li’l Deadpool and Hulk. It’s such a subtle touch, but so awesome.
