MR. SMOOTH

This is one of the easiest comics I've ever made. I only had to draw a single picture. I'm happy with how it turned out.
Even though it's the same picture from frame to frame, it somehow evokes a continually changing body language as it goes. I sense a coldness in the lady in the last panel, and an uncomfortableness in the man. It was sort of intentional, but mostly accidental.

I might do more Mr. Smooth comics in the future. I can use this same image and just change the text. I didn't give it a title yet, because I'm still working on one. Mr. Smooth is ehh. Maybe Mr. Buttertongue, or Mr. Sugartongue would be funnier.

Hope everyone has a happy Christmas.

  2. Superb!
    Minimal execution, maximum laughs -
    your color choices make this one of your most ...dare I say...beautiful comics you've made.
    Great writing underscores the differences between men and women hilariously!

    I could see this as a greeting card, the image is the front, inside blank (who cares?), in the romantic humor section, if there is one...there should be.
    Funny stuff!

  8. Mr. Smooth is a good name...but also Buttertongue. They're both good. It's got such a contrast which is why I love it... soft, pastel-like Victorianism... and the word "poop." Great sucker punch humor. More please.
