Ah, it has been a while, but I have returned to my preferred medium: ballpoint pen on styrofoam. This series is a wonderful representation of the artist’s inner soul: A reanimated monster in a tuxedo trying to save the world that so fears him. Yes, dear readers, that is me in a nutshell. Behold!

What we have here is Frankenstein’s Monster with a Martini (the secret agent’s drink of choice)
Frankenstein’s Monster with a Gun.
Frankenstein’s Monster with his Flashy Car…which you can only see the very top of because I wanted to focus more on the conflicting emotions in the monster’s face than on the car. And also because I started drawing this picture too low on the cup to include the rest of the car.

Hi. I like monsters. I like commercials starring monsters. Some of my favorite monster-based commercials are from the good people at Jack Links Beef Jerky. When you say their name ( and you should ) try to sound like one of the Duke boys jumping a ravine in the General Lee escaping from the likes of mean ol’ Boss Hog and the incompetent law enforcement of Hazzard county. There is a company website and if you have not seen it yet click the following link: Messin with Sasquatch. It includes all of the TV spots as well as web-only content. Yes. I am selling out.
Another favorite commercial is for Pepto Max. It has a catchy theme song and stunning visuals. According to the commercial, “Pepto Max is maximum pink.” I checked IMDB and “Maximum Pink: the movie” does not exist. There was nothing naughty or nice. Though it is only a matter of time.
The appeal of this commercial is that it encompasses 2/3 of the GIMOROZO triumvirate of evil — Giant Monsters and Robots. If Zombies were involved this would be the perfect commercial. In fact, the Pepto people should consider using Zombies in an upcoming ad campaign. Email me. I got tons of ideas. It can be done tastefully. Everything could be acted out with puppets. Puppets are harmless…if you ignore the following movies:
- Dolls
- Puppetmaster Series (Full Moon Entertainment not the Heinlein one)
- Any of the Child’s Play series
- Meet the Feebles
- Additional movies about demonic puppets or evil dolls.
Maximum Pink. If the link does not work, search YouTube.
I mentioned the Dukes of Hazzard above, so I feel the need to add the following words of caution. Do not watch “Dukes of Hazzard: The Beginning.” My sister’s dog committed SEPPUKU after watching this garbage. This shit will kill you. It even made Netflix sick. You were warned.
