Here's Stan's contribution to the Nursery Rhyme Comics book.

Feel free to delete this if it violates some sort of copyright. I figured since it's Stan's art we could share it here.

Reminds me of a young Nilson Groundthumper! I was surprised when my copy arived and I read the story. For some reason I thought I had read somewhere that it was going to be a three page story. Of course, I still liked it, but since I was unfamiliar with the particular nursery rhyme I was left wishing that it coould have been a tad bit longer.

I like that, especially the Sergio Aragones influence on the first page (but how do "king" and "again" rhyme?).
