GUARDIAN "Heroic Leader"! Line Art. (Patreon)

Good morning, my Beautiful Patrons.

Although GUARDIAN doesn't actually appear in my ALPHA FLIGHT parody comic "SNOWPLOWED" I felt compelled to draw a pinup of him for you!

As VINDICATOR, later renamed GUARDIAN, JAMES (Jimmy/Mac) HUDSON was a founding member and leader of Alpha Flight. He was designed to be the Canadian equivalent of CAPTAIN AMERICA, hence his costume markings are modeled after the Canadian flag. Guardian is often confused with CAPTAIN CANUCK, another Canadian-themed superhero with similar costume and superpowers.

Now I know that his costume/power suit probably wouldn't work so well with this many bits of it missing, but we can suspend or disbelief for a moment, can't we? Especially when it gives a mouthwatering look at some of Mac's yummier bits! Heh! Heh!

His colors are up next, and I dare say that they are striking! STICK AROUND!
