I'm one of Gary Larson's biggest fans. In fact, it's his syndicated comic strip that made me want to draw. I'm pretty Bad at it, hence the BadlyDrawn s.n. but it doesn't stop me from trying to get better.Years ago and before I really tried to put pencil to paper, I used the computer to create some comics. Some are on my profile. Terrible, I know, but the ideas were more important than the actual drawings, at least to me.
Larson has retired but the inspiration never died and his influence is still fresh to this day. It probably spills into many of my drawings, but this one especially. It's a bit of a tribute I suppose. Anyway, enough talk.
I've gotten a bit better since then. Just a bit.
For better or worse, Larson helped to shape this semi-conscious sack of protoplasm to where it can hold a sharpened pencil...and put it to paper.

Yeah. I like that. So many now with the internet and the ability to self-publish...
I like Callahan's edge, and that he held the pencil in his mouth to draw. He was inspirational in the way that it's really the idea that makes the joke and not so much the artistic ability.
So can you!
No matter how weird!
And let 'r rip!
K, I'm done ....for now.
My character's name is Bastid here for reasons I'm not quite sure of anymore.
Some women can drive you to....
Take the easy way out?
The end. For now.
Madness.....lol.
