Day 30: Lora
Her name is really spelled Laura, but in order to be part of the group she has to spell it Lora. She joined the group because she thought it was a fashion club, not a group of hoodlum girls who wear short skirts. She’s in now, and there’s no getting out.
Day 29: Zora
Zora is one of the coolest members of the Mini-Skirt Mob. She prides herself on the fact that her mom named her after a character from a video game. So hip!
Day 28: Flora
Flora is Cora’s little sister. She’s not really sure she wants to be part of the Mini-Skirt Mob, but she has no choice.
Day 26: Dora
Dora is the lookout. She claims she has the eyes of a hawk, but she’s always hiding a pair of binoculars.
Day 24: Smiddy
Smiddy is an unfriendly sheep farmer. He gets his nickname Smiddy because it rhymes with something that sounds like Diddy.
Day 23: High Pockets
Working out some ideas for a Western comic that I’m doing. This guy is tall, thin and has the nickname High Pockets. Long legs = high pockets. The most fun part of this project is coming up with the names.
Day 21 & 22: Jean and Gene
Arm wrestling champs in three counties. They’re not good at anything else. Poor things.
Day 20: Blake
Blake is a moron. His mother told him that he suffered a terrible injury and has never been able to walk. She did this so that he would never leave home and stay with her forever. Blake figured since he can’t walk that he would learn to use a pogo stick instead. Black hops all over town and still lives with his mom.
Day 19: Reece
Reece is the leader of the delinquents. He’s the one who decided to make everyone wear masks. This was after he got drunk, passed out and his friends superglued a mask to his face. The mask couldn’t be removed unless he underwent painful surgery.
Day 18: Tank
Tank is the captain of the wrestling team, but there are some people who are trying to get him kicked off the team if he doesn’t take off the mask.
Day 17: Shakes
The only girl in the group. She gets the shakes when she gets angry. She chose the weird sheep mask because she thinks it’s deep and philosophical, some sort of reflection on society.
Day 16: Goob
Goob is short for goober and since he’s so short his buddies shorten his name too. Goobs mask is possibly the worst of the bunch.
Day 15: Leaf
Insists he’s not anything like Leif Garrett. He’s decided that as long as he’s going to wear a mask for the rest of his life he’s also going to wear mumus and bed sheets instead of regular clothes.
Day 14: Mash
A new wave of delinquents are taking over, except they all wear masks. Their parents don’t even know what they look like anymore.
Day 13: E-Smoking Man
He’s the updated version of the smoking man from the show X-Files. E-cigs are the smokes of choice for the smoking man now.
Day 12: B-Man
B-man, the B stands for battery. He’s basically just a walking battery that F-Man has programmed to follow him around in case he needs power for something.
Day 11: Haley
Haley is F-Man’s girlfriend. She’s used to disappointment and has a tremendous amount of patience.
Day 10: F-Man
F-Man has been reading old E-Man comics and he thinks he’s the latest and greatest thing. The F stands for fusion. F-Man may not fully understand the difference between fusion and fission. This could spell disaster.
Day 8: Randy
Randy is a former zoo keeper. He has seen the error of his ways and is teaming up with Zooey to defend the rights of the animals. Unfortunately Randy is a bit of an eccentric and at times overly emotional. He continues to wear his jumpsuit that was his uniform while working in the zoo. He thinks it puts fear into the out of control animals.
Day 7: Lane
Lane is Zooey’s half brother. He’s one of those types who acts before he thinks, but he’s strong and loyal.
Day 6: Eva
Eva is the mastermind behind the poaching industry and loves to flaunt it. Zooey hates her.
Day 5: Dale
Dale is a poacher and an all around not cool guy. Zooey has to battle Dale at some point or another.
Day 4: Zooey
I’m a huge fan of Lorna and I’ve always hoped there could be another “jungle girl” type comic out again. Zooey, is a play on the word zoology as she’s here to protect the animals and the environment. She has no super powers normally, but the animals gifted her this special necklace that has bones from fallen animals. When she puts on the necklace she gains the powers of these animals.
Day 3: The Pawn
The Pawn is kinda sad. He thinks he’s a real baddy, but he’s just a pawn, like his name suggests.
Day 2: Ball of Energy
Hyper active Johnny was always referred to as a ball of energy. Little did people know that he truly was.
Day 1: Minotaur
Sorry I missed the intro post. My name is Jess and this is my 4th year doing the challenge.
This is my first character this time around. He’s a Minotaur, but unlike the traditional type he has horns coming out of his mouth. It’s like he should have gotten his wisdom teeth removed sooner, but since he didn’t they grew out of control and he’s now turned evil. Who wouldn’t be angry with bad teeth popping out their face?
Day 30: Monster Burger
Part of a new book project. It’s looks like a children’s book, however it’s a story for adults mostly because of the profanity and drug use. For shame.
Day 29: Belligerent Bunny
Part of a new book project. It’s looks like a children’s book, however it’s a story for adults mostly because of the profanity and drug use. For shame.
