"A Cry For Help" by Gerald DeJesus
August 31st, 2010 by GabeThis is it, the definitive end to Big Pants Mouse. I saved Jerry's masterpiece as the final final final Big Pants. Why? Because it's all there. Like us all, Jerry has always had a soft spot in his heart for this little mouse, but unlike the rest of us, Jerry's heart is quite different.
Jerry is an amazing artist. You have seen his work and you didn't even know it!
My friend Tony introduced Jerry to me at a Carl's Jr. in '99. Tony wanted me to put in a good word for Jerry at Spumco. He was amazing, and we hired him for his flash expertise, but unbeknownst to me, I already "knew" Jerry.
See, some of us guys at Spumco had this contest called the "Ace Card". We would find the nastiest filthiest videos online and share them as our "ace card". Tony always seemed to have a HUGE amount of videos and would usually always win. But those times changed when Jerry started at Spumco. Jerry was Tony's secret supplier of depravity. If I would have known this, I would have told our boss that we needed to hire Jerry on his filth finding abilities alone!
Since then, I think I've worked with Jerry on every flash project I've done, including the Big Pants Mouse pilot at Disney. He is an amazing art director, bg designer, painter, animator, and all around great guy. Thanks for the final word Jerry, you put the final nail in Big Pant's coffin.
Thank you all for all the support over the years. Here's to the end of Big Pants and the start of Life In The Analog Age next week!
I hardly saw the title on her Armband :}
Now we know what happened to Diseasoid, but what happened to the chain on Skadis' leg?
How many times have I mentioned that Skadi has made wednesday my favourite day?
Also, glad to see Skadi's teeth (or main fang, at least) have healed. That fang is one of her most adorable features.
I love the little reappearance of the 'Plop'
4. Hee hee, good theory!
5. Sorry Nic! You gotta wait for 2 more, then we go back to regular Skadi comics. I know the longer stories aren't the best for a comic that only goes up once a week, but they're fun to do so this won't be the last one. Would you like the longer stories better if there were more of a "conclusion" or joke at the end of each part, rather than just a "too be continued" sorta thing?
Thanks everyone!
You killed her! It's cause she's a fan favorite huh?
One thing I am complaining about is that the art of this comic conveys what's happening perfectly well without the need for those little thought bubbles of Skadi's. They feel kind of redundant.
