Plastic Reality 001

As previously mention back in the first comic, "Plastic Reality" was the first attempt to rebound from the whole "Hamster Wheel" debacle.

When i was edged out of the comic, I "snapped back" by making a comic strip with not one, not two, but THREE self-insert avatars. identical triplets Dennis (in red), Daniel (in blue) and Donald (yellow).
They represented my ego, superego and id, respectively. A theme that I would revisit several times, quite often with these same characters.

I was just discovering the 'joys' of Photoshop around this time. Cut & paste. photo backgrounds. All the shit that make me a lazy hack cartoonist with diminishing skills to this very day.
I was also big on the nonsensical.
… and really into Invader Zim.
