The WenDonald's King: The Virgil to Your Dante For a Nightmarish Journey Through the 9th Circle of Fast Food Hell

I just wanted to throw something up here that I drew tonight. Peggy asked me to draw up a mascot for a McDonald's/Wendy's/Burger King mega burger chain. Some business school thing. I think it's kind of funny, but not so much for the whole premise of the drawing (though it is sort of funny), but because of how sad/pleading the mascot-hybrid's eyes are. It's as if he's saying, "Please. Make the hurting stop." I was going for the very elusive jovial/terrifying look of the Burger King guy, but this is what I got. Anyway. For your amusement/derision.

    Your next hybrid should have Jared from Subway cross-pollenated with Colonel Sanders and the Taco Bell Chihuahua. Sort of a second string fast food medly.

    No need to include Dan from Del Taco. Too regional.

  5. His eyes are sad because it looks like was trying to crawl through a slit in the paper and got stuck.

  6. That's totally hilarious Heath. I laughed at that one because it took me a second to figure out what you were talking about, and when I did, bam. Joke right in the face.

  7. Ever a time when I am not hilarious? Even when I am crying, I am hilarious.
