I have to agree with you over his character, I preferred that in the earlier comics, I think he had a tendency to be the "butt" of the joke later on, like when Blackblood was supposed to be using him as a generator for years.<br /><br />But then I was always a Mongrol person myself!<br /><br />Cheers Roger.Dick Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01653744597413710281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19593214192492898.post-19906828106724552182020-06-07T06:35:43.363-07:002020-06-07T06:35:43.363-07:00Thank you Wouter, he has been around for a long ti...Thank you Wouter, he has been around for a long time hasn't he, and has gone through subtle changes over the yearsDave Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13398737478468720431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19593214192492898.post-64357053252886040462020-06-07T06:26:22.659-07:002020-06-07T06:26:22.659-07:00Sweet, love your take on this iconic character!
