Artist's Comments

He's not brave.
He's not strong.
He wasn't Foretold, or Chosen, or Prophesied. He wasn't even Hinted At Vaguely.
He's not even particularly smart.

But he's the only one left.

So what you're saying is... we're screwed.

*giggles* I love his expression. What's the thing in his hand?

Yes! He's the best pick for the job!

The use of negative space and little artist comment "story" add so much to this. I love it, especially his expression!

Delightful minimalism, oh yes.

I love how much the comment adds to this picture - I mean, it's cute and deranged without it, but the comment makes it amusing and forboding and wonderful. Bravo!

In 1781, a man called Herschel discovered a planet. He wanted to call it George, but was overruled. It was eventually named Uranus.

"That's right," he said. "We're philosophers. We think, therefore we am."

Evil-doers, beware...

Teapot-Hand Man is on the job...

I love the concept here. Even "unlikely heroes" usually have some sort of advantage: hacking skillz, debonair charms, or a powered-up mode. This guy is the most unlikely of all. Great job!

Aw, poor thing. He looks so scared and confused. *pats on head* I guess I would be too, what with that description. The line with "Hinted At Vaguely" kind of reminds me of Hitchhiker's Guide.
So was this just a little nugget you dreamed up for fun or is it part of something I missed?

haha, my first thoughts when I saw this were "this is what would happen if Jason Mewes, Captain Jack Sparrow, and Samus Aran managed to produce a baby."

This picture is fancy, I love the emotion that goes with it.
Sort of an 'oh shit' feeling, almost xD
