Crowd Scene


Here's the middle panel of today's CdS. Because if I'm going to draw 500 berzerk toddlers I'm going to show it full-sized.

  1. How great to see this twice. What's missing from this single frame is just how cool, which is very, the "rumble" lettering is across three frames.

  3. Richard, i just read this one and was thinking how funny it was that you drew a herd of toddlers and, lo and behold, here it is blown up so we can all enjoy it.

  4. Amazingly accurate! I've experienced such a herd.

  5. I count 38. But I know how you famous artistes may exaggerate for effect from time to time, so all is forgiven.

  6. I swear I just saw the uh-Oh baby on Wilson Blvd in Rosslyn. It was in a tandem stroller and said "uh-oh" 3 times as I walked by!

  7. I love the Uh-Oh Baby. Somehow, its androgyny makes it even more unnerving--as if you are even more specially pointing out that it is no common human child but a PRESAGE OF DOOM.

  8. The Uh-Oh Baby is a very special character who needs to be rationed, like Charlie Brown and the football, though perhaps not with such once-a-year regularity. Too much would be too much, but the occasional appearance is ... delightfully unnerving!!! One of your better creations!

  10. Off topic, but I'm assuming you've seen Ponyo? I ask because the title character is a cross between Alice Otterloop and a sea urchin.
