Kenny
What started out as a joke turned into a
comic I published weekly for 6 months.
I was out on a date when I passed
a salon called "Kenny's Hair-Skin".
I quipped, in my best immitation of
Billy Bob Thornton in Slingblade,
"I'm Kenny. This is mah hair,
and this is mah skin."
The joke stuck with me, and the next
day I ran the idea for a comic
by a friend of mine.
Since in my mind Kenny had a mullet,
she was instantly sold on the idea.
So I drew the comic, many laughs
were had and I did another.
It was at that point he took on
a life of his own.
I decided to set up a Myspace for Kenny
and then randomly sent friend invites to as
many different people in as many different
places as I could.
Pretty soon Kenny had a small following.
I posted the comic there weekly
and responded to comments and such
as if I was Kenny.
As if that wasn't strange enough,
I set up a page for Kenny's new
girlfriend in the comic, Kendra.
I guess I shouldn't have been surprised
when guys started hitting on Kendra's
profile, even though the only pictures
there were cartoon drawings of her.
One gentleman even sent a picture
of his girlfriends breasts.
It was just was too skeezy to handle.
I'm just really lucky I didn't get a
shot of some guys schlong!
I did other things to keep things
interesting for my friends and I.
For example, I ran a contest just so
I could do a bad parody of
"My Dinner with Andre".
After about 6 months I kind of ran
out of steam, but I wouldn't say
that Kenny has completely run
his course.
One idea I had was to
have him take a journey across
the country looking for his parents.
The other idea I don't want to spoil
but this journey would take
him a bit farther.
