Vancouver 2010

I drew this next beauty shortly after the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. I was going through Olympic withdrawal combined with the After-Reading-Break Blues and it was not a fun time. All I wanted to do was gather my friends and make another trip into the city to enjoy the atmosphere and listen to (and sometimes join) some more intoxicated citizens sing Don't Stop Believin' and Oh Canada on the skytrain. I wanted to give out more Free High 5's and take pictures with random people in the street just because we were all wearing the same flag! I also wanted to get interviewed by some more weird news crews who didn't even tell us what station they were for. So many good times....

As you can tell, I loved the Olympics so please understand that this next drawing is not a terrorist plot.


You can see how someone could reasonably misinterpret it as a plan to kill hundred on the skytrain. It is not. It is a giant Killer Whale eating a skytrain that is falling off a broken track into its mouth while Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs fights it.

Obviously this is a fantasy since whales cannot live out of water and the skytrain does not go out over the ocean. Also the fact that it's a giant killer whale eating a skytrain is kind of a major hint. And Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs, who, by the way, appears to be wearing a new necklace. Maybe another one of her three wishes from the Green Genie?
