As some of you may know, I maintain a blog where I make fun of a terrible comic strip. As part of a cross-promotional deal with said site, anyone who preordered a
t-shirt with swears on it got a free index card. A number of them requested/ inspired cards relating to said comic strip, and I have done my best to convey both their creative vision and my own interpretation of the title character (a terrifyingly humongous tyrant/force of nature with very little awareness of the well-being of anything other than himself). Here's the first installment of those works:
"Marmaduke eating a small child"
"Marmaduke devours his owner-man"
"This cat ate Marmaduke"
A side note: my surname does not mean that I am particularly good at math. I'm actually rather terrible at it... It's sort of a bummer. If your last name is "Carpenter" and you suck at hammering and sawing and stuff, you know what I mean.
Sometimes I just sort of end up going bananas when I'm making these. I was asked to do "a food chain that includes a panda and a penguin," but ended up not being able to fit the whole title on the card.
And not a moment too soon. Seriously, if I have see one more picture of that stupid outer space horsehead cloud I am going to vomit.
From Wikipedia: "Though often referenced in pop culture, Davis Jr.'s notorious "crazy fake-eyeball trick" was never been captured on film, nor was it often performed. Towards the end of his career, after swearing off caffeine, Davis Jr. told his biographer the trick was "not something I'm particularly proud of. Nowadays I only do it on Christmas morning, or sometimes for babies or barnyard animals." [citation needed]
