Sketch Stuff
Wednesday, October 24th, 2007Ah… it’s been a while since the last update, yes? Well, let’s just say that things haven’t been conducive to artistic production (apart from the artist being lazy). So while we’re waiting for the next exciting page of “Armageddon Creeped Out,” let’s look at some sketchbook goodies!

Say, howabout a cheesy TV cartoon from the dawn of time? Spunky and Tadpole!
Speaking of ol’ TV stuff… the third season of Lost in Space had one of the best opening themes, did it not? Here’re the French-version titles:

Is The Surly Bird Special going to be the next Fission Chicken story?
They had a Spunky and Tadpole cartoon on last week’s cartoon dump. If anything, it was wierder than this one. Lord knows, if I were the president, and I had a secret letter upon whose delivery the fate of the country rested upon, I think I’d find someone other than a kid and a talking bear to give it to…

Monster cheese? Hmm. Has posibilities.
“Gorgonzolla Attacks Lombardy”
The bear’s got my vote.
And that rock over there.

Monster cheese? There’s a 1985 movie, “The Stuff,” about a popular dessert product that turns people into glop monsters… that’s sort of close.

Popular dessert product? Slurm?
Superman’s pop? No, wait. That was Jelly-Roll.
No. That was some music guy.
Pop music! Yeah, that’d do it. Definitely glop.
So, what’s the deal with ol’ six-eyes?

Slurm? Jelly-Roll?? Huh? In the “Stuff” movie, the killer dessert product (sold in supermarkets everywhere) was was called just that: “The Stuff”!
I dunno about the six-eyed aliens, they don’t show up in the “Armageddon Creeped Out” storyline…

“Slurm” was a moniker given by some silly book (whose raison d’etre was giving silly monikers to things) to Cool Whip or other artificial dessert toppings of that kind. “Fenderberg” and “Glacket” are others. Guess what they describe.
Word association football (Superman’s pop > Jor-El > Jelly Roll (Morton) > jazz musician > music) == glop
The Stuff == one of the four basic food groups.
And what about Happy Star-nosed Wevil alien? Children’s show host or flagrant drug-abuser?

I though the four basic food groups were Salt, Sugar, Grease, and Bean Gum!
Happy Star-nosed Weevil Guy? I think I drew the snout first, then added a smiling head. Maybe it’s from a childhood injury such as balancing a firecracker on his nose.

So let that be a lesson, kids! Poorly placed pyrotechnics precipitates pentafurcated proboscises!
And you might put yer eye out! Doesn’t matter if y’ve got five more—it’s gonna hurt and you’ll look stupid!
