Talking Animals Again


I have to reintroduce Mr. Danders, as he's the actual star of the strip, maybe. I know how he talks, at least in my head, but I wish I knew what he sounds like. Elmer Fudd with overtones of Truman Capote is as good a guess as any.

I have to admit, I haven't warmed up to Mr. Danders yet. Maybe I just didn't have the right voice in my head. Elmer Fudd/Truman Capote helps.

I'd always imagined John Houseman.

Yes! John Houseman! That's even better! Does that help too, nolanart?

nolanart said...

That works. And you could introduce a new kid in class... MISTER HAAART.

I've always felt his voice sounds like the guy who does those "Actors' Studio" interviews.

Though I like the John Houseman voice, too.

Gee, I was imagining Nick Galifianakis

You ever hear Nick do Christopher Walken? It's good & frightening.
