04 – HOUSEMAN

For this year’s challenge, I decided to try something different from my massive day-by-day story of characters that I put together last year.  Inspired by the incomparable AXE COP, I decided to turn the creative reins over to my 3 year old son.  I wrote out the alphabet and had him create a character for each letter.  He told me about the new superhero and guided me on their designs.  It should be noted that all word balloon dialogue was also created by my three year old.  So here we go, in no particular order…

HOUSEMAN

A number of my son’s creations start out very straight forward, then they veer off into unsettling territories.  Take HOUSEMAN, for instance.  He has a house on his chest and is really strong (okay)… he has a talking house belt buckle (sure)… and he has all of the eyes in the world (wait, what?).
