And now, the first *official* Freddy Dinkelmeyer cartoon:
After the first few I had done, a few people had read what I was drawing. But personally, I was not satisfied with the way it was going. One day early in the school year I decided to change it completely. I tossed the graphic notebook aside, got a regular notebook, and begin drawing the cartoon as a STRIP SERIES. I gave the main character a name, gave the strip a name as well, The Dinkelmeyer Zone, and began putting more work and detail into it.
So Freddy Dinkelmeyer, as his new name became, had his second first day of High School. I hope this is legible and readable enough for everyone. My handwriting is not the neatest in the world, and the old notebook has been stored in boxes for years.
This is it now. Theres no going back. We are delving into Dinkelmeyers world now, and weve passed the point of no return. Hold on to your seats.
Yeah, he's the best, isn't he? I predict you'll like the talking pig as well...but htat's for later.
I see...you only love me because I add to your thread. That's ok, I'll deal...
Oh, no! Caught in my web of lies! Oh, the horror as my world comes crashing down!!!
HA! I knew I unmasked you!
Well, I'm not above that sort of thing.
I know, I know, I'm a bad ping master. But...you like your ping masters bad.
You know me too well!
That I do...wicked ping master!!!
*L and applauds* I love your work! Please add me to your ping list!
Oh, thank you. WElcome aboard.
You are exactly the fortieth person to be added. We should have a celebration of some kind.
BTW, there is a full archives of all my FReeptons at the bottom of my home page.
Wonderful cartoons- the drawing is really good. I didn't "get" the punchline on the first, only because I've never heard/seen "lucha wrestlers"!!!!!!!!!! NOW, I get it: LOL!!!!!!!!!!! (Takes me awhile.)
Your Freddy D. toon has just a perfect punchline. Just PERFECT. Oh! The inhumanity!
Keep them coming, please.
Thank you thank you thank you.
I knew the lucha wrestler thing might go over a few heads. I'm not sure if it really means anything about Vicente Fox, or if I just thought it would be funny to do something like that.
Got to get to work on the next one already.
