Today for a little change of pace I figured I'd bring back an old series I haven't done in a while that I know at least some people found amusing. Jobs and Elcor Would Suck At. I didn't realize it at first but the last time I did one of these was almost six months ago, somehow seems shorter than that.
I have to admit when I first came up with this concept I used it kind of as a filler for when I didn't have any other comic ready for that day. The Moments with Brad have kind of replaced that niche in the schedule, especially seeing as they don't need much illustration to make at this point. The Elcor comics are kind of like that in a way. Yeah I'll admit the Elcor is in the same pose everytime, albiet with a different paper doll-esque outfit on, but to me that's part of the charm of the series. It's all about one Elcor that gets thrown into missmatched situation after situation. Did anyone buy that? it's kind of true.
What isn't easy about the Elcor series is that I usually end up having to draw three new and completely different backgrounds, and well I'm not the biggest fan of backgrounds, they are definately not my strong suit and really my least favorite thing to do about 90% of the time.
That being said pleaase enjoy today's comic and it's three phoned in backgrounds!
