#51: Superrepus: The Palindrome King

Hey, guys. Do you know palindromes? If not, they're groups of numbers or letters that are the same backwards and forwards. Well, this week is the dumbfounding phenomenon where every day is a palindrome (4-13-14, 4-15-14 ex.). So, to celebrate it, here is my new character: Superrepus: the palindrome king. He's the mirroring monarch of the World of Words. Everything about him is a palindrome. His name. His racecar. Even his picture, if you look closely, is the same on both sides. He and his army of guys named Bob (the ultimate palindrome name) rule his land with the power of words. He'll have you saying WOW! Haha. Palindrome.

(P.S. check the time this was published.)

#50: The Ancient Portal Placers

Hey, guys. Today, I'm going to the L.A. Festival of Books. After, of coarse, the Mustache Ninja and I made fun of the theme, "Inspire Your Fire," for several days. Anyway, here are my new characters: the ancient portal placers. Light years ago, back in the days before days, there was an ancient brotherhood of otherworldly beings that flew across the universe, bouncing off planets and throwing portals into nooks and crannies galore. The portals, if found, could let you travel to other realms and unlock the secrets of beyond! Man, that's fun. But they hid them so well, that few people on Earth have ever found them. One more time...BEYOND!

#49: Onomatopoeia Man

Hey everyone, here's my new drawing: Onomatopoeia Man! You know how when Batman or someone is fighting a bad guy, onomatopoeias fly all over, like WAP! BAP! ZAP! Well, someone's gotta put those there. So the great Onomatopoeia Man (A.K.A. ... Jeff) is paid by super heroes to throw those suckers around during fight scenes. He is an essential part of a hero's entourage along with sidekick, cape buffer and guy who stands off screen and says, "meanwhile, at the headquarters..." (Jeff also doubles as the guy who places the hypnotism swirl between scenes. DOODILA-DOODILA-DOODILA-DOODILA-DOO!)

#48: DJ Spacy Mack

Hey guys, here's my new character: DJ Spacy Mack. If your flying through the galaxy in your spaceship and you want to hear some sick beats, you'll surely turn your radio to AM 51 and listen to DJ Spacy Mack. He broadcasts from deep space, mixing up techno & house and sending shout-outs to his homies on Jupiter. Tell me that if Disney's Radio Rebel took place in the Crab Nebula, you wouldn't have liked it more.

#47: Double-0-Kevin

Okay, here's my new drawing: Double-0-Kevin. When the world is in trouble, there's only one secret agent who can save the day ... and when that guy's busy, then there's Kevin, the super spy with a kitty cat tie. He's an agent of U.N.D.E.R.O.O (Universal Network Determining Events of Rather Odd Origins) and runs around, squirting villains with his Splishy Splashy Fun-in-the-Sun gun. (Yeah, he's in the family. Nepotism.)

#46: The Dirty Laundry (Dun Dun DUN)

Gooood morning, everyone. For those international fans, it's 9:12 am here in sunny Blogland, USA. Anyway, here's my new characters: the dirty laundry (dun Dun DUN!). Lock your laundry room door tight and keep your detergent close. Because, when midnight comes, the dirty laundry springs to life and comes to get you! The true essence of evil has never been smellier. Who needs Frankenstien when you have a stinky pair of underwear you wore for 2 days? (I made this idea years ago on a movie poster that I hung on "Materna-tron's" laundry room wall because she was complaining about doing laundry.)

#45: The Rex Men

Okay, here are my new characters: the Rex Men! Some 67 million years ago, mild-mannered homosapien, Oogguh Kyung , discovered that Lord Halfus had plans to sink Pangaea to the bottom of the sea. Oogguh needed a plan to stop the evil human/dino, but he couldn't think of a thing until a trio of talking dinosaurs came along. Then, he knew what to do. He and the scaley compadres united as the Rex Men, the crusaders of the Cretaceous, and kicked Halfus' behind. Wam! Pow! Roar!

#44: April Fool

Hey, guys. Sorry, but I have no posts for today...APRIL FOOLS! Kinda undermined my own prank by doing it on the post. It's best not to think about that. Anyway, in spirit of the day, here's my new character: April Fool. She's the childish prank-master and creator of the holiday in the first place. She's wacky. She's off-the-wall. It's only fitting she be the twin sister of #8: Tom Foolery. Tom showed her all his tricks of mischief and balderdash back in the day so now, she really knows her stuff. Rick-rolling? Yeah, that's all hers. (By the way, this idea was given to by my great Mom. Codename: Materna-tron!)
