Description I have posted a number of less ambitious works lately. Here is another. I added those weird squares to trick you into thinking this had a background.

Somebody I know told me how someone he also knew, whom he told about my dumb comic, had referred to that character as "the UPS dragon" when I guess through some means or another the topic came up, even though this creature is just a regular dumb old lizard and not actually employed by a legitimate delivery service. Both those people should be ashamed of themselves for letting this happen.

I considered the commonly associated UPS brown semi-pants, but I was of the opinion that while that looked very dumb it was not dumb *enough.* Here, you can tell right away "this thing is incompetent." There it's possible to believe "this thing is remotely qualified." Although having the hat backward also accomplishes that goal. The fool looks like an idiot both times that way. There may be other exceptions, as well.

Oh I forgot about that middle one.

First of all, as an employee of a private delivery company this creature would be ineligible to transport items sent through the government-run postal service. Second of all, no you don't! This thing is bad news.

There's no point in forgiving the fool. It will be late again.

Aww, well I think this uniform suits him quite well! I'm happy whenever I have parcels delivered to me, I think I would be even happier to see this guy when I opened the door hahah. I'm not afraid to publicly state I like hopeful lopes hahah. I hope his brick-on-a-stick was tasty.

bimshwel In reply to Koshizuu [2010-08-17 04:13:49 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for appreciating the fool! However, are you not at all concerned that the parcel might contain a bomb or a monstrous alien arachnid? I suggest that you not open the door at all, and possibly set out traps. Traps for the lope, I mean; the spider is innocent.

I also prefer hopeful lopes, for they are the easiest sort to play tricks on.

As for the brick... well the lizard doesn't appear to have any teeth, possibly because it has been attempting to eat the brick for a long while, which might indicate that the flavor is indeed quite pleasant.

Not at all, a bomb or a monstrous alien would be a welcome relief from bills I would imagine, hahah.

Those robot pies are always getting underfoot.

I must say, I rather prefer the short pants as well. They add a certain modicum of dignity. I realize a lack of dignity is sort of your goal here, but even so, I think the image simply looks better that way.

The vengeance by the robots upon those who damage their baked goods is immediate and unrelenting.

That is fair enough. It does make more aesthetic sense since a specific matched set of clothing has been broken up. The creature's height could also contribute; it's much easier to get away with this crime when one is shorter, as you pointed out. This beast often wears a large coat which diminishes the shocking effect of the lack of dress.
I was, however, struck with the notion that the creature suddenly resembled a legitimate stupid animal mascot when the alternate version was prepared, and seemed to take on a slight bit of the associated soullessness, which I could not, at that moment, allow. Although that was also before I added the robot pie, whose humbling consequences may even things up somewhat.

That figures... Federal Express owns the Kinko's business, which makes unsatisfactory art prints, and this creature would be in a few of mine. I should have recognized the blatant, unamended dysfunction against its own best interest as the work of something I came up with.
