Kill Me, I’m Irish

So kiss me, I’m shitfaced, I’m soaked, I’m soiled and brown in the trousers, she kissed me, And I only bought her one round – St. Patrick

Happy St Patty’s Day. Despite what you may think, knowing that I’m a drinker and all, I’m not a big fan of the holiday. A bunch of obnoxious drunks celebrating stereotypes with no true understanding of history? Ugh. And if you’re wondering, yes, I’m part Irish. I’m predominantly Italian, but I do have some Irish blood and I’ve always been interested in the culture. I like that this day at least makes people think about the Irish culture, but that’s about it. So, in short, screw St. Patty’s Day.

Look what I drew!

Our second Aw Hell Naw! comic strip, for next month’s Urban Image Magazine. It struck me the other day that it is very likely that the drawing of mine that has been most published and seen by the most people contains a dildo. I didn’t like that thought.

This strip doesn’t have a dildo in it, though it does mention one…twice. That’s an improvement, right? I actually really like this one, much more than the first, and not just because of the aforementioned dildo. BTW, that is officially the most times I’ve mentioned a dildo in my life.

I think this one gives a good idea of the characters’ personalities and more of what we’d like the strip to be. Alex wrote it without very much input from myself or Daddy Rich, and I think it’s the better for it. I think it’s pretty funny, and a different kind of humor on multi levels than we’ve really done before. Hopefully the readers will enjoy it.
