My friend Jim and I had a discussion shortly after I moved up to the high desert, and he was wondering how I'd feel about the prospect of meeting my personal cartoon persona as a "Real" person. I then drew up this image of a more "Realistic" version of Mister Foxy, set in downtown Mills Harbor on a clear and sunny day. The 2008 Presidential election was then yet to be run, but I couldn't resist putting in a newspaper (?) headline featuring Congress' reaction to the first Anthropomorphical animal-person elected as Chief of Staff. Weirder things have happened I'm sure in the hundred-odd years from now until then.

The "Hooie" punks use a spray can with a "stencil" nozzle. These "Twink Tops" can be programmed to spritz out a variety of markings in a matter of seconds. It's similar in design to those coveyer belt devices which spray the ident and locator codes on boxes in most major shipping warehouses.
I know it isn't, but, yeah, the morph elected president reminds me of Bill Amend's constant jokes of "Cartoonist elected President" or "Cartoonist named Springsteen replacement" in his FoxTrot comic.
But, yeah, the whole image looks damned good. Love the background, how trash naturally looks for a place to be hidden and protected, and like Mr. Foxy's glasses.

That's one thing I was considering in my "Mr. Foxy" stories. The Humans can not only have Lasik surgery, but they can also get custom, cloned eyeballs made for them as long as they can pay for them. The Anthropomorphicals, being "Fourth class" citizens can only afford "Old Fashioned" Optimetrical corrections, for the most part.
