Behind the Scenes - If Dr Seuss was actually a doctor...

By now you should know that I'm publishing strips at the amazing website www.wiseguypictures.net written by two extremely talented comedy writers. Well, here's the story of the first one we worked on, basically what if Dr Seuss was actually a doctor.

Now this one was probably one of the easiest ones we've done in the sense that consensus was reached early in the process. For my first design I created a Dr Seuss based on the way he actually looked, combined with the hat from his famous cat, and a little of the hairiness that characterizes most of his characters. The script had the patient saying one final line: "Are you high?!" But me, being the pretentious asshole that I am, decided not to include it (lol):

Some changes were made (basically just removing the "hairy" aspect of the Dr Seuss character), and I proceeded to create a more detailed strip. I created 2, one with the line and one without it.

As you can see, the changes from the original draft and the polished strip are minimal. Finally consensus was reached, and it was decided that it would be an alteration of the second option.

To see the final version of the strip, go to www.wiseguypictures.net and check it out! And come back soon for more behind the scenes and other stuff! :D
