Original Art by Matthew Thiele

Dated 7/25/03. I liked designing Abstract Gator’s little prison jammies. They are pretty legible, which is a positive accomplishment. Legibility is always a challenge with black-and-white linework and with Abstract Gator in general.

There are some fun moments coming up where I show you what Abstract Gator is capable of, and it made sense story-wise to put him in a desperate situation to give him a reason to cut loose.

It’s been twenty years since I made these, and I can’t remember if I explain what Abstract Gator is supposed to have done on the Abstract Homeworld to be branded a criminal. I guess we’ll all find out together!
