   So I think most people will agree that "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" wasn't the best movie in the franchise. But the movie had great characters- Shortround, Willie, Mola Ram. Take Mola Ram for example- that dude was scary! And Willie- heck it was easy to see why Indy fell for her in the movie. Kate Capshaw is beautiful! 
   When Topps released "Indiana Jones Heritage" and later that same year (2008) "Indiana Jones Masterpieces", that 2nd movie in the franchise probably didn't get as much love from sketch artists as the other movies, but Mike did a few gems from it. Which leads me to this week's card:



   Indy, Shortround, and Willie in the mine car. Mike used various styles throughout these sets, and I love this one. Willie in particular, this sketch captures her to a tee in this scene. She wailed and whined the whole time lol. Shortround lives up the the first half of his nickname as you can only see his eyes, hat, hair, and hands in the sketch. Indy is ever present with his signature hat and has an apprehensive look on his face. And not a nose in the bunch. Classic!
   I am also always a little amazed how flawlessly Mike can draw multiple characters on a card- in this case three plus a mine car. Granted they aren't full body characters, but these cards are 2 1/2"x 3 1/2". Miniature pieces of art, each and every one. 
   So I hope you like this installment of the blog- thanks for stopping by and reading!
