What the hell is this, anyway?:
Jeep Chan is a comic based on real conversations, exaggerations, and weird
social happenings involving me and my best friend Jill. these same criteria
are what is needed to be in a strip, so please don't ask to be in one. guest
comics are fine, but unless both of us know you fairly well you won't show up here.


Where exactly did the idea for the character come from?:
Jeep Chan was, originally, a name that Pat gave to our dear friend Jill on a
November weekend in 2004. we had gotten Chinese carry-out, and had grabbed
some Botan rice candy to go with it[If you're wondering, Botan rice candy is a type
of Chinese candy that has rice paper wrapped around it, which is edible and
delicious], which comes with a free temporary tattoo per box. we dug into ours with
glee! i recieved a lion, if memory serves me, though i lied in the first strip for some
reason saying it was a skull. and Jill, of course, recieved a shiney, detailed blue Jeep.

we then did the only thing we could: we put it on her forehead. it was then that Jill
suddenly became what we affectionately term a wereidiot, and she proceeded to rampage
around the kitchen yelling in a hilarious voice. among things she said that night were
"I HAVE A JEEP ON MY FOREHEAD", "WOULD YOU LIKE SOME...BOTAN...RICE...NGH....",
and other fun phrases you'll never quote!

shortly after this incident, i drew the notorious Jeep Chan, and began to create horrendous
doodles of ourselves, mostly little inside jokes that were too retarded to explain. if you're
curious to see early designs of Jeep, head on over to the art section of the site.

oddly enough, the idea to start making comics out of our hilarious antics didn't really hit
me until early 2006, when i began to improve and my interest in comicking became a lot
stronger[it also happened to be the time when drunkduck.com was magically revived from
nowhere!]. it's a lot more fun to illustrate these little nooks of our lives than to just tell the
stories. sometimes, it's also a lot scarier!
