Toronto Comic Con 2015: Dan Parent Sketch Challenge

One of the many comic guests for Toronto Comic Con 2015 was Dan Parent, an artist best known for his work in Archie comics. My wife is both a fan of Betty and Veronica, as well as a nursing student, and therefore I thought what better challenge than to draw Betty Cooper as a nurse.  Of course there is already a Nurse Betty famous in popular culture, but this one was meant to be different enough. Once we got to the booth we saw some of the other artwork he had done, including Betty and Veronica looking similar to a couple of Justice Leaguers:

We left him with our request and came back soon enough to see a partially finished product:

The only question was what kind of nurse were we after?  Norman Rockwell-like or modern version in scrubs?

“Scrubs please!”

We returned soon to find a finished product with Dan happily ready to show off his newest work:
