Raising your game

Yeah sure, Scary Go Round was all right, but I think this new project is the zenith of where I am going artistically.



Many thanks to "Pops" Alluvium.

John, if Tackleford is in west Yorkshire, how is it by the sea?

John A said...

Everybody knows that the wide Atlantic comes ashore in coastal Keighley and that sea salt is used in Seabrook crisps (and was what gave Saltaire its name).

Joe, the front door of Shelley and Amy's house is on the opposite side when viewed from within and without. Do you think I make any concession to reality whatsoever?

Now how about JOEY FONEBONE? He's so hot right now!

Nice, nice...
Hello from Mexico.

Roman said...

Is Joey Fonebone the giant man with a pacifier in his mouth? That's hot all right - I wouldn't call it genius, but it's something.

Roman said...

Oh, wait, maybe Joey Fonebone is the short man who speaks in a racist dialect.

You know what this is? Drugs. Lewis Carol. Drugs.

Gene Ha said...

Okay, Roman, I'll bite. How is a Brooklyn accent racist? All Brooklynites are racist? Or it's racist for an Englishman to mock a Brooklyn accent?

At our Midwestern (Detroit, MI) school, we had a girl with a (New) Jersey accent. For the first few days, we tried to get her to say words with a "T" pr "TH" in the middle. "Hey Trudy, what comes out of the nozzle when you take a shower?" [Quizzical look] "Wadda..." "What do you put on your toast?" "Budda..."

John, I think your creative vision seeks to wander! Mine does too, and I'm playing with fun concepts that I have no idea how to make money from. It just has to be done.

You are a man with ideas John, I appreciate that. Now, when my money comes through from the Nigerian UK handshake Lotto winnings, I know that investing in your endeavor based on root beverage comics is SOLID GROUND.

Hey, Joey misspelled "sarsaparilla"! Well, me misspoke it. Clearly, he knows not of what he speaks.

Our Gratitude Journal said...

With a character who throws around words and phrases like 'hot dang it' and 'monkeyshines', I'm in.

JM said...

I like it, it's nice and loose and silly. Would this be the first page of a longer romp or just a one shot gag?

It's more of a five minute warming up exercise but it could be part of a 200 page graphic novel, I just have to draw the next 199 pages!
