Ping Pong (Ding Dong)

Egg Comics

Inevitably, it HAD to happen.

Being an "internet cartoonist", an unrepentant weirdo (no matter HOW I have mellowed in my old age) and an American male makes me a bit of a perv. Just a bit. Don’t get me wrong, I like porn as much as the next cartoonist, but:A) I have my limits.

Some of that stuff out there is just plain SICK and fuckin’ scary! REALLY, people! Tone it the fuck down! OhMahGAWD!!and B) I don’t draw full-on smut very well, so, most times, I don’t even try. I had one porn-themed comic once, called Stella and Celeste. half of it was fucked up anatomy and characters who were almost never ‘On Model’, the other half was me, once again being a butthurt, self-righteous jerk and PURPOSEFULLY drawing bad anatomy and off model characters because some of the “fans” of that comic were all “This is awesome, bro!”, and “This is the best/coolest work you’ve ever done!” Really? REALLY?!! I would pour my heart into normal comics that I THOUGHT were funny and required at least 17 working braincells to enjoy in an attempt to truly entertain and got NO feedback or anything. I draw a pair of lop-sided tits and an anatomically incorrect vagina or two, and suddenly I’m a genius??

Needless to say, I was pissed off and being a dick about it. It's how I am, sometimes. (Also, i like Easter Eggs. Dig the Militak poster from Evil Empire )Anywhoo, when I do draw something smutty, I forgo the full-frontal, and, try to make it more subtle and funny. Sort of meeting things half way. And, mind you, as I said before, I am at least a MILD perv, and ALMOST everything I do, ends up being at least slightly smutty at SOME point. That's where this strip came from. I favor innuendo more than outright on-panel fucking, and, even more than the smutty, I like things to be cute. My comics projects tend to, in the long run, be a lot like Amy Wong from Futurama: slutty, but cute.
When it comes down to it, however, if I was forced to pick only one path, I would ultimately choose cutesyness. Call it unmanly, but I never claimed to be the most macho cat in the alley. I like cutesy things. This is probably why I seem to be obsessed with ‘Chibi’.
This was the last finished product of Moxi and Scribble. There are some half-assed drawings and script ideas in my way-too-many spiral notebooks somewhere, but there's probably only 2 more strips close enough to being finished that I will bother with. I was thinking of maybe even changing Mox from being a Spineless One, as I hear The House of Ideas/House of Mouse can get pretty litigious about even OCs and fan characters, especially when using them for smut. As one can just barely see Moxi's nipples thru her sweat-soaked shirt…..
