Combining the two can be a fun and entertaining endeavor. Follow these steps to help you draw scary comic book monsters and spice up the content of any dull comic book.

Instructions

    • 1

      Go through your favorite comic books and look for monster drawings that you like. Make a list of the different features of the monsters you like for ideas.

    • 2

      Doodle a few drawings of monsters. Try illustrating different features that you find scary, do a whole page of eyes, mouths, arms, legs, hair, etc., until you find a combination that works for you.

    • 3

      Draw a monster from each of the different monster genres. Sketch a vampire, a zombie, an alien, a mummy, manga or medieval type monsters. Think of all the elements of monsters that scare you and filter that into your comic book drawings.

    • 4

      Use your own fears to make the perfect scary comic book monster. Review some of your favorite horror films. Pay special attention to the features that strike the most fear in you.

    • 5

      Always draw your monsters with a sense of atmosphere around them. Remember that monsters aren't scary on a white page, so make sure that the environment your comic book monster is in is sufficiently creepy for them.
