Tee Shirts From the Crypt...

I'd forgotten this lot - tee shirts I designed back in the 80's and 90's.

.... and THAT would probably bring American Hurling together with Irish hurling.

@Java : since you raise the issue, Irish hurling is a kind of cross between ice hockey (without the ice) and the Battle of Hastings.

Oh Des, why, it's so easy: Fill the juice into a water pipe!!!

Just orange juice. And let me tell you, it's not easy to smoke orange juice.

Ah, well, thanks for this exhaustive explanation!

(What exactly did you drink ... or smoke?)

@ Kringe : Well spotted, Mr. K.

That is indeed Gimp Boy on the Schooner.He fell into the water and was attacked by some radioactive shrimp, thus acquiring the proportionate intelligence and good looks of the crustacean.

He briefly called himself Shrimp Boy, but decided that it sounded a bit stupid so he decide to call himself "Gimp" Boy because it rhymed with "Shrimp" and used one less letter in his publicity leaflets, thus freeing up space and costing less, or something like that.

Recent comments on the meaning of his name have made him realise that it might be misinterpreted, but the options of "Pimp Boy"

and "Limp Boy"

are not really appealing to him as viable alternatives. For entirely different reasons, "Chimp Boy" and "Blimp Boy"

are not acceptable either. A namechange is on the cards, but it looks like he's going to have to move away entirely from things that rhyme with "Imp".

These are the problems that beset superheroes.

It's all just pictures, no big deal. You do whatever it takes to pay the bills. Set design, murals, yard markings, t-shirts, or A4 paper - it's just about different scales of work. But thanks for the kind words.
