Drawn circa Fall 2002 by Neil C. ObremskiClick on the image to go to a larger version. While the name came about much earlier, the very first visual version of our heated hero is represented here roasting a speared little man over a camp fire (bottom center) ... and he doesn't look too happy. And that reminds me of the time I was ordering a movie ticket and the clerk glanced at my FlamingWeenie T-Shirt and asked me, "Is that a hot dog on fire? Why does he look so angry?" to which I replied: "His head is on fire." Seems obvious you know. Also making a splash is my friend Chris's internet avatar TrickyFishy (in black, bottom left). I always thought he had a knack for cartoon drawings and this was no exception, but of course he hated it. Finally, the my Mad Scientist character from NeilStuff is also displayed (in blue, bottom right). If I remember correctly, Chris drew that as well. |
