Description I doubt anyone knows this guy. I wanted to do something a bit creepier that usual.
Evil Ernie was a fictional comic character published by Chaos Comics and created by Brian Pulido.

After a lifetime of abuse and neglect, teenaged telepath Ernest Fairchild was sent by his parents for psychiatric treatment to Dr. Leonard Price. Under Price's care, Ernie was subjected to an experimental dream probe designed to modify a patient's mental state. However, the probe increased Ernie's telepathic abilities to such a degree that he could no longer block out the thoughts of those around him. He now knew that his neighbors were aware of his abuse, but never lifted a finger to help him. Enraged, Ernie massacred his parents and most of his neighborhood before being captured. He was judged insane and committed to Clearview Mental Institute, again under the care of Dr. Price.

Years later the brilliant medical researcher Dr. Mary Young attempted to cure Ernie using her experimental Neurotech device, designed to purge a psychopath's killing urge. Like the dream probe, though, this experiment too went awry, transforming Ernie into an undead teen psychopath capable of reanimating and telepathically controlling the dead. Ernest Fairchild died that day, but Evil Ernie lived, resurrected in Washingtn D.C. on Halloween.

Together with his trusty sidekick Smiley (a sentient, psychotic button formerly the spirit of his pet rat), Ernie proceeds to spread megadeath to the world.

As Ernest Fairchild, he had the ability to sketch drawings of the future. This was first demonstrated when he drew a picture of a brand new washing machine being delivered shortly before one was delivered to his parents as a prize in a raffle they had not even entered. It seems that his ability could change the future since he once drew a picture of him and his future younger brother walking hand and hand when he heard his mother tell his father she was pregnant with a boy, only to prevent his younger brother from being born when he drew his mother's car crashing into a tree. Later on, he gained the ability to listen to the thoughts of others.

As Evil Ernie, he was extremely strong, practically unstoppable, thanks to the arcane energy of Lady Death. He could revive anyone he killed as loyal zombie follower in his army of the undead. When he was resurrected in Washington D.C., he was even more powerful. He could now resurrect the corpses of anyone nearby, whether he had killed them or not, and could manipulate arcane energy into powerful blasts to destroy his enemies, though he rarely used this ability since he preferred to be more "hands on" when it came to killing.

I agree. Evil Ernie could be a fantastic live action film if done right.

So true. It would be awesome if Avatar bought the right to publish and rebooted him, with garth ennis writing. That would be fantastic.

Very, very nice.
I was a big fan of Ernie's back in the 90's, and it really warms my heart to see this made.
Thanks.

Thanks, bro! I did it a whiles back. You know, i've noticed something recently. I'm more into drawing fanart of the indy comics characters these day. I've felt a lot more freedom mentally to cut loose, you know?

well, i'm not really scared of the big stuff (except flash, i'm a major flash fan and whenever i try to draw him it's never right)it's just that i love the craziness of indie characters these days. evil ernie, one-eyed jack, bomb queen, bloodwork and the overground characters are so different from most of the stuff the big 2 have, i get a blast, a real kick out of drawing them. one of these days i actually wanna take a crack at some more project IV characters. i get more passion out of them.

I heard of the character, but I never saw any of the comics here. Or I didnΒ΄t look for them
You captured his mental state in a great way. Good artwork.

Not many of his books ever make it here, but I always liked the character because he was so different from anything else at the time
