robot doctor strikes again...

oh my goodness, i'm so funny.

did you see what i did there ? i even built-in a pun around the theme of the strip within the subject line of the blog post...

yeesh - i'm good.

a frightened robotic bat...?

a frightened robotic bat...?

...well that's what it looks like to me.

...maybe the bat is me.

...maybe i'm feeling that there is a grasping hand appearing from the very ground beneath my feet to pull me down ???

large-headed mannequin vehicles...

large-headed mannequin vehicles...

that seems to be the way in which this particular meeting went; not quite sure how though.

when i was scribbling away, though, it did occur to me that there were similarities to the giant alien spider that walked through the streets of liverpool a couple of years ago La Princess.

robot doctor, now in colour...

yes, I bought some new pens this evening. I need no less, and no more excuse than that!

another robot doctor...

another robot doctor...

yep!

a robot doctor...

a robot doctor...?

image the hilarious possibilities...

well yes, I plan to. hope you enjoy it, made me chuckle anyway.

a dog on a flying carpet?

a dog on a flying carpet...?

yes, of course it is, what else would you expect?

and look, there he is chasing his radio controlled tennis ball, holding his bone-shaped remote control in his little paw.

... this is one of the fruits of a three-hour sales presentation.

odd looking robot...

odd looking robot...

a couple of hours worth of meeting, and this is all I can muster? I put it down to my not feeling very well. sniff sniff cough.

puzzled figure...

puzzled figure...

on the head of a pin. actually a little guy for a logo / character I'm toying with. not sure why he's standing on a drawing pin, though...

...unless my unconscious mind enjoys making puns as much as I do!

another robot...

another robot...

but trying a blog post with my new android phone via 'blog away' makes the picture just a little more apt doncha think?

king octopus...

king octopus...

says it all really.

gather 'round children, and let me sing to you the story of the great 'king octopus' of london town.

aye, he would float twenty feet above the ol' river thames, in days of yore; and that poorly realised, yet regal, monster would sing for the souls of the honest sailors as they navigated those troubled waters.

seemingly random...

seemingly random...

which is what i like about this little corner-filler (gracing the spaces within a powerpoint table, for those paying very close attention).

sure we have the ol' rocket ship, and superhero - although reduced to an iconographic type image, which i like.

but we also seem to have the house from 'UP!', and a strange geometric inca-type head-dress thingy.

...try harder md, more like this!

a sentient stalagmite ?

a sentient stalagmite ?

yes, he might indeed.

so it's up to generic mini-superheroes to save the day from this subterranean menace.

...to be fair, it doesn't look that menacing to me, maybe i'm just trying to inject some level of excitement into a slightly lackluster margin-filler?

poor supes...

poor supes...

he appears to be trapped in some sort of confinement bubble.

...so what do we know?

1. the bubble appears to be controlled by the strange, smiley, decapitated-head creatures;

2. the bubble is uncharacteristically impervious to the localised shower of pins that surrounds it (either that or my shading method became a little rococo, and broke the third wall)

3. there appears to be another super-person hanging from a balloon !!!

4. i definitely had too much time on my hands in this meeting.

... i like the bubble though.

(keep on doodling superman, though; ego-problems, anyone?)

some underwater scene, it seems...

some underwater scene, it seems...

robot ? check

rocket ? check

tentacles ? check

so predictable i have descended into self parody, it appears.

robot looks a little like a duck, though, i think: and the rocket has those nose-cone fins that we've not seen before 'plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose' as a french bloke once said.
