These are a few doodles for background characters when we get to the school. A few are spur of the moment, others I have had in my head for awhile. The Indian-American girl with the long braid for example, I first drew waaaay back in Chapter 2, during the shopping trip. I also think it’d be fun, as an Easter Egg, to include Jenny Everywhere as a background character/shout out.
Dunno if I need this here or when I get to it, but just in case: The character of Jenny Everywhere is available for use by anyone, with only one condition. This paragraph must be included in any publication involving Jenny Everywhere, in order that others may use this property as they wish. All rights reversed.
Today's edition of the Secret Commentary is empty, because Dave failed to come up with something for it.
Heheh quite the assortment you have there Dave.
all rights reversed?
Ya, means the rights to the character are “reversed” back to the public, versus being “reserved” for the creator. I thought it was just a funny wordplay at first, but according to Wikipedia it’s an actual thing.
There is a lovely book, about the powers of the mind, called “All Rites Reversed”. It’s a hoot.
“Tutally knot Goo >_>”?? that’s what it looks like is above the kid with a missing tooth and two braids.
Ya, that’s why I use typed speech bubbles. Xd It says “Totally not Goo”. Because halfway through drawing her I realized it basically looked exactly like Goo from Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends.
oh. heh, but I don’t think so. Goo had one more braid, and no freckles.
I just found your comic today and read through all the archives and it’s amazing! I feel dumb for not clicking the link on the Dominic Deegan homepage months ago. o.o
LOL at:
“Totally not Goo. >_>”
I like the faces, ‘cept for Napoleon Dynamite [and Jenny needs a little work] up there…
[I see what you did there]
I thought bindi in the middle of the forehead meant “married” for Indian women. Is that only RED bindi?
If Wikipedia is accurate, bindis are not exclusively a sign of marriage anymore; they can be decorative implements worn by any age or gender.
I’m Indian, and you’re right Dave, bindis are not worn only by married women anymore; Some women put a red powder called kumkum on the center of their heads, where a center part would normally be, to signify marriage. I hope I can see that Indian girl sometime in the comic, that would be awesome!
