Flight of the Jackabee

imagined by: James Mathias


click above to enlarge.

Jon Jackabee, never told anyone close to him that he possesed a special ability that no other person had. He was reluctant to tell his family, friends and even lovers. It’s not that he thought they couldn’t be trusted, or that they might sell him out to the scientific community, or that they might shun him and call him a freak.

No, Jon’s only reason for not sharing his gift, was that he couldn’t bear the thought of having to “share” his special gift… He didn’t want to become a “ride”, he was afraid of becoming everyone’s personal flight transport.

Yes Jon, can fly. You ask, why did he tell me his secret? He didn’t, in fact I just happened to look up into the sky at the exact right moment. It was amazing, and this illustration doesn’t do it justice, but it’s close.

Ah, another back topic from Illustration Friday. “Flight”, yes I am weird. enjoy.

You know the score, keep it clean and on topic. “Spammers” & “trolls” are decimated on sight.

That’s a cool power to have. How fast can he fly? And for how long ? I wonder if he actually could carry a person, usually the flying person can only levitate aloft what they could normally carry in their arms.
Great illo !

James Mathias

He was going about 100mph when I saw him, and I assume he can fly indefinately. He claims that he could carry another person of equal of less body weight of his own.

Are you fracking with me??!! You’re saying that you saw him do this?

James Mathias

Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying.

A.

Are you sure you weren’t dreaming again?

James Mathias
