Sketch-A-Day 58
This was kind of the final look I went with on the Alias page. I finally finished that damn thing today/yesterday. I went with a very basic non-descript archer character that was derived from my early interpretations of Spider, although now he bears pretty much zero resemblance to the original.
I tried to go with what made sense: a covered/protected bow arm and a bare unfettered arrow arm. The pouches? I couldn't help myself, I found one old picture with a few utility patches on his belt so I owned it. I went a little more modern with the bow, not as generic recurve as the original.
that's pretty much it.

I love your reimagining of old public domain characters! I've done a bit of it myself. I do a webcomic called "Revenger" about a character based strongly on the Golden Age Daredevil. And my character, Sovereign, has a few conceptual elements of the American Crusader.
Great work, Matt!
Quality work man, its a great drawing, design and pose. Really good stuff.
