Have you ever seen someone that greatly resembled a comic artist's particular style?

I started thinking about this while the ABC show "The Neighbors" was on. This guy, Simon Templeman, looks like he fell out of Frank Quitely's pencil.

Anybody else have a similar find?

I tend to agree that Karen Allen looks like a Byrne girl.

I don't see that one as much. She's definitely lacking the measurements to be a Cho girl!

I figured the Simon Templeman thing out....he looks like Quitely's Dr. Quintum from All-Star Superman.

I used to work with a fat guy who had cokebottle glasses and a nerd's screech, who looked like he was born to be carried off by a pterodactyl in a Far Side comic.

Or like a muppet. It's that long, cylindrical face.

In the mid 70's I was in a Summer school class with a girl that looked like she was drawn by Mike Grell. I couldn't talk to her.

I always thought Cybill Shepherd (particularly as Maddie Hayes) and John Tesh looked like they were drawn by Curt Swan.

Reading a Marc Silvestri comic and then watching an episode of "House" right afterward made me realize Olivia Wilde is a Marc Silvestri drawing come to glorious life.

Did she dress like a Grell character too?
