It was only a dream! (But a nightmare for some).
Dexter fans might appreciate this. I binge watched the whole series.
This is part 1 and yes, Joxter is (somewhat) autobiographical. I am often getting inspiration from real life jerks whose main purpose in life is to detract from someone else's enjoyment of life - namely mine. But, as usual, I owe such people heaps for the cartoon inspiration. and yes, someone on Facebook decided to be a slimeball, but no, the name is not the same.
Follow up episodes will be coming soon.
I'll be putting together a comic featuring Lawnmower Man at War and also with a little time travelling. Also featured will be the Peasant Hitchhiker.
In my late 20s and 30s I did quite a bit of hitchhiking, travelling from Victoria, along the Australian East coast. One of my favorite destinations was Noosa Beach in Queensland. I carried a small ringed sketchbook and drew some of the things I saw and people I met. Thirty years later I look at the drawings with a fairly critical eye, especially the portraits. However, with some tints and enhancements on the computer I think they don't look half bad.
I intend to do more scanning of old pics, even going back to my childhood and school illustrated stories.
One day I'll put much of it into a book.
