VICE has released two pieces about the legendary Geoff Stirling, his legacy and his comic characters: Captain Canada and Captain Newfoundland. When Geoff passed in late 2013, I drew this piece featuring him and his superheroes, and I’m honored to see it used in films and articles like these.
People from outside of Newfoundland sometimes ask me about Geoff or Captain Canada, and their minds are always blown when I start talking about it. If you want to to read about one of the most interesting people who has ever lived and his psychedelic 70s comic book creations, I recommend checking out these articles (don’t miss the jaw-dropping artwork by Boris Vallejo):

And if you have some time to kill, get lost in the NTV Late Night rabbit hole on Youtube. See you on the other side.
