I was instigated to be a little creative and drag back a couple old characters from an earlier comic strip called Wabbit Hutch. I’ve mentioned before that Arno looks a lot like Radar, a character from that era. Here you can see how close he is.
Merv also is related to Punk, another from the strip. You can see the similarities. Merv, of course, has stopped smoking and has gotten a slight bit more intelligence… leaving the Jar Jar Binks-ism behind.
Arno has Radar’s energy, but is not much of a chick magnet. I guess we all come into new lives with different goals… Poor Arno.
Tomorrow’s cartoon also resurrects and old favorite of mind, one who is probably the best character I’ve ever created… and more like my crazy self than all the rest. And yes, he loves cookies!
Enjoy some Auld Lang Syne,
Tj
I love google… proved I was right in my spelling of Jar Jar Binks AND Auld Lang Syne. I had no idea I could spell the last one! WhoOOHOOOO! Spell check doesn’t even recognize that! HA!
