Shirtheads - a comic
Well, this was a little comic I was sort of informally asked to do, and I’m not sure if it’s ever going to take off, or what, but here’s the first one anyway.
Basically, the premise is that the strip focuses on tshirt vendors, Abilene (or just Abi), and Matt, (yes, Mattman, he’s modeled after you, in recognition of my first buyer (that I know of) who run a stall at a local craft market called Shirtheads.
The idea was that I would seek out tshirt designs that I like, and feature them in the strip, and get a bit of background from the artist to go along with it, as well as post a link direct to the tee, etc.
If anyone would like to see more, let me know, and I’ll try to make it a semi-regular thing!
Keep bubbling over, folks!

You’re like lightning, Simon. Cheers! ;o)
Chris Richards
Brilliant!! I agree with Simon… I get a feeling someone will like, lynch you or something should you halt production now. Horray for forced drawing!

Aww shucks mate I am only now finishing up work so didn’t see this until now.
I am stoked.
I think you must know me from my 9 years livin’ in Melbourne because I got strips ripped off me for the “double point”.
Lovin’ your strips.

caanan
Thanks, guys! :oD I kinda put this up here, ‘cos, once it’s out, I have no excuses, and no choice but to do more. Sometimes I have to work, to get any work done. And Matt, you just seemed like a ‘double point’ kinda guy.
I’ve been going through tshirt designs and picking some favourites to incorporate from here on out, so if you get a bubblemail from me, that’s what it’s about. My next one is already underway. :o)
Thanks again!

Danny
trouble is:
the hamster is infected with the plague
so is it’s owner
caanan
Well, sheesh! What good is a talking hamster if all it ever says is ‘My boils are bursting! It hurts! It hurts!’ ??
What a downer. ;oP
