They say "corn" in Dinner Bell . . . though I don't suppose that counts.

Originally my avatar was my main character (sort of) Casper, but for a while I went to an Aussie Santa for the Christmas break, then back to Casper again. I've thrown Casper's self nominated best friend and foil, Cody, into the avatar square now in his get up as an aboriginal from one of the coloured strips, mainly because I liked the grumpy look he has.

I don't know what that says about me as a person...

Please don't tell me.

I have recently adopted the style of clothing as my avatar... Asid from that I think I may need to make my avatar a tad more violent to accomodate my killing sprees in the chat room and in GTA. And my secret lair and underground army. *cough* You saw nothing. *gets the baseball bat* nothing

[edit] My current avatar was drawn by Cope. And it looks quite spiffy! Complete with the baseball bat! :D

I'm very attached to my avatar personality, actually. My name, Corgan Dane, came from FFRP online, and I've gone under that name on so many boards and stuff, that I think once my writing career gets going, I'm going to use it as my pen name.

...my avatar personality, with the reaper, started long before I started doing my comic. I've been doodling Deadhead everywhere, and used him for avatars before. He is my alter ego. Actually, he's more like a younger version of me that never grew up.

...and no, I wasn't a reaper when I was young...but that would have been cool. I guess I mean he just reminds me of me, when my outlook on life was much more grim.

Eww. Pun.

My avatar is as fickle as the breeze, although it's usually some variation on my main character/me. Way back in the day, I had two avatars that I used for a long time: one which depicted me in a naval officer's uniform to commemorate my promotion to Commander, and another which showed a frowning bald man's head growing out of a flower pot with a flower growing out of his forehead. A caption read, "please kill me."

Are we wierd?
Oh, yes. Since beginning to use my current avatar, I have redone all our curtains in camo fabric, I dress in military uniforms every day, I have reveille every morning at 0545 hours...

I also lie a lot.
This webcomic, seen here is hosted on the free web host Comic Genesis which pretty much proves its not popular.

Damn straight! And on that note, I want to state now, for the record, that I do have breasts, and they are full, round and fabulous!
