"is that an anvil on chestacles's chest?"

Yes, he's going through emotional turmoil. Something heavy is weighing on his chest.

This has the potential to be a very good cartoon.

Re-posting this in case you didn't see it, Jim...

Jim, I saw a few posts back you responded to me saying you do have a few copies of Lonely Are The Naked. I would certainly like one. Can you e-mail me with ordering info? My e-mail travers.tj@gmail.com, thanks!

Yes guy! Thanks for posting more Chestaclese. Can't wait for the comic. Hey Jim, can you post some of your Samurai Jack stuff? I was watchin' an episode on the weekend, the mondobot one, and I saw that you did some of the boarding on it. The action sequences were pretty epic in that one.

I love these characters, Jim! They remind me of a mix of Albert Uderzo meets Bakshi. If that makes any sense!

Thanks to Frank Forte for posting these. He is selling stuff on e-bay.
The anvil is an example of Chestaclese bragging about things that are absurd much less impossible. It comes from a John Ford cavalry movie from the '40s, Sgt Quincannon claims he swam the English channel with an anvil tied to his chest. This Sgt. character is a major inspiration for Chestaclese. Heroic yet foolish.

Cavematt: I am looking for the storyboard copy that's around here somewhere. You can see how much stuff was not used, stuff I thought was pretty good, but that's the director's choice.
