Character of the week

Comix: The result of dividing by 0.  That explains alot, actually. Anyways, this week's character of the week is #198: Joe.

Appearance: Joe is a yellow M&M shaped creature with a blue hat and 2 skinny legs with red shoes.

Running gag: Joe is always losing his hat and going to outlandish lengths to retrieve it from life threatening situations.

Origin: One Summer, in a Massachusetts art class, two random guys made a comic about a guy named joe.
I was one of them. Joe was soon plunged into a long hiatus until finally being recovered and added to Comix.

Joe somewhat resembles Pac-Man, a trait that is lampshaded in an episode where he tries to get his hat back from some ghosts.

Luckiness rank: Unfortunate.

Often seen running in the background of many episodes. The reason he is running is always revealed in a short following all of the episodes he appears in.

Friends: The Kooky Carpenter Cousins, Mac-Pan, Barrel Ape. What, no! These were not random video game references slapped together at the last minute for comedic effect!

Enemies: The Swat Team, the ghosts, moon chicken.

As illustrated in the picture... WHAT THE! That's not Joe!See full size image Oh well.

WE INTERRUPT JOE'S ONLY TIME TO SHINE WITH THIS IMPORTANT BULLETIN: In a shocking turn of events, Polar Bear has been elected president due to his unscrupulous slandering of Teddy Bear's good name. (Go to this post if you don't get the joke: http://www.thecomixfile.blogspot.com/2013/02/trivia.html)

That's a wrap, but tomorrow a Fanny pack of awesomeness awaits! Peace, Comixers!
