Some of you may know, that for a long time I've had a comics planned called Arnie the Middle Class Mercenary. It a real basic comic that was going to mostly be populated by characters based on my friends. A parody of the people I know. Originally I had a page at the old site that featured the basic concept of the story and some of the pinup pieces I've done based on the characters. My friend MC (Mary Catherine) for her birthday a few years ago asked me to draw her an illo featuring all the characters based on our friend, primarily her character MC-1 the Universes Greatest Stripper.

So this is that piece. The characters and people are as follows left to right bottom row: Men-bob (Mendy who doesn't talk to me anymore, I don't Know why), Cha-bob ( Chad, who I don't talk to anymore), Ky-bob (Kylah, who only Jeremy really talks to), Kev-bob (Kevin, who was Kylah boyfriend, but then declared he was gay and now does crank in OKC and doesn't talk to anyone), MC-1 the Universes Greatest Stripper (Mary Catherine, who is not at all stripper like, and is very pretty), Jeramiah Trout, the Man of Fear (Jeremy, who only speaks in sarcastic), Sgt. Erin Wolfier
( Erin, who is not big and buff like that), Squatty Troll with Sign (The troll is Rick and the Sign is Renee, since Renee always has other plans). Top row: The Crudilump (Me, who talks to himself a lot), and Waldo-1 (Wallie who lives in Colorado, but is still a good friend, and is very pretty!heehee)
