You are about to stumble upon a rather haphazard and unpredictable creation. Woah! Roscoe is a free online (G rated) comic following the adventures of best friends, Roscoe and Tiger, as they discover the wonders of the world, whether it be back in time or in the bath. Excitement is never far away. Since W!R is coming up to its second birthday, you may notice it’s gone through alot of artistic and stylistic changes. If you’re starting at the beginning remember... it gets better!!
The main man and comic’s namesake, Roscoe Midlake, is a young (by this I mean immature) and imaginative boy who lives with his Dad, a struggling hippie, in a relatively small town. He is often pondering the mysteries and complexities of the universe (like what Pearl Jam actually tastes like) with his best - and only - friend Tiger Jones.
Other half of the leading duo - Tiger is a young adult fresh out of high school ready and willing to take on the world wherever and whenever she (or Roscoe) see fit. If this means a trip back in time or fraternizing with Bath trout than so be it.
ISSUE ONE - RETRO CHEESE
After Roscoe and Tiger realise they’re being watched (well, read..) they decide to create a work of art which sucks them back in time, supposedly, to the 70’s. They aim to enjoy their good fortune but this doesn’t always go to plan.
ISSUE TWO - TROUT FISHIN’
To make up for some hostility between Roscoe and his Dad from Issue 1, a fishing trip is proposed. Roscoe endevours to teach Tiger the art of fishing but instead they find themselves in the underwater world of Bath befriending the Diamond Hoo-Ha Man.
ISSUE THREE - ???
You’ll just have to wait and see....
Woah! Roscoe is my creation. I am Debbie Keal, a bored receptionist from the little island nation known as New Zealand. When I was young I remember my friends telling me I was bad at drawing and from then on I set out to prove them wrong.
I’m still not brilliant, but after working my way through a few comics (Snailman, Friendly the Snail and King Me) I’ve started making improvements and I’ve finally settled for one to grow and develop. Woah! Roscoe has begun it’s long long life - Onwards and upwards!
I love to hear from you guys!
