In comics it’s normally called a “bird’s eye view”, but in this week’s strip, it was a “how to show three things going on at once” view.
The script asked for a stool. Did I listen? No, I had to make it more complicated for myself. I went with a ladder. D’oh!
I got to toss Tricky into a panel, and so I swipe– er, paid homage to a costume design from Jack Davis’ work on the Mad Monster Party.
The Har-Har kids are dressed up as a mad scientist, and a wookie. Essentially, that’s big foot, with a bandolier– let’s be honest.
There is a lot of Wonder Woman referencing going on in Beano, and I don’t mind. If anyone would dress as the Amazon princess, it would be JJ….
I talked before about the Beano Bosses have three standard poses that are used in the comic. Pointing, jumping, and laughing are the usual ones, but occasionally they’ll…
This week is the Halloween issue of Beano, even though another book will be out before the holiday; go fig. Anyway, in some of the strips the kids…
It’s that same old house again, filled with furniture only available in one model, and a limited selection of colors. Hari wanted something that complimented his red suit.
It’s funny how we learn things. To help remember the difference between stalactite and stalagmite as a kid, I associated the “c” with ceiling, and the “g” with…

Why do people always want to strike up a conversation with you when you’re doing heavy lifting? I should have added some “pain stars” shooting out of Hari’s…
This week in the Har-Har strip there’s reference to a laugh box, which is an old joke prop. I had one when I was a little kid, but…
Again, trying to keep things consistent. One way to do that- have everyone live in a house with the same floor plan, same interior decorations, and furniture. The…
As mentioned previously, I try to keep details consistent from issue to issue. One nice thing about the Har-Har strip was they had model sheets of the shop…
The Prank Academy this required some odd angles. It’s hard enough to get a likeness in a normal view, how’d I do?
Had to put an alien in this issue, so I decided to mix and match some classic sci-fi references. The head is from the mutants of “This Island…
