Game Plan...Latest Update
I am going to post a synopsis of "Hubbel Employed" so readers can understand a little bit about the story.
I have thought about starting the comic from the very beginning. It sounds like a really good plan, however, if I decided to go that route, I am confident that I will never start this comic. It's much too hard to set it all up in its chronological order and events. Theres to much planning involved for my current schedule at the moment.
Soooo,
I will most likely start posting...Readers can fill in the blanks as I go along.
One day, maybe I will put everything in order.....but it will probably be when I'm old, bald, and use a walking cane.

Hubbel Medium
Ok...so one of my biggest hurdles while writing and developing Hubbel has been in deciding what medium to show these comics... I work all day in 3d as a character designer...so it would be logical for me (and quick) to make these characters in 3d....but....is 3d the best way to start?
There are so many ways to go...
- ink?
- color?
- pencil?
- quick sketch?
- 2D?
- 3D?
- Animation?
Crayons, Finger paint, Stick figures, Twigs, Chalk,
or...?
whoa Nelly.......
Even though this has been my battle for a looooooooong time,
I have decided to try the gammet and see what pans out.
So, please be patient with me.
Things may start, stop, change, rearrange etc...as I figure this out.
Hubbel will be a work in progress. And to those...if any...who are watching, you will get to see everything unfold before your eyes.
...in all its glory....or not.

One of the most....
Yes, you heard me correctly. The Blue Footed Booby.
It is the most peculiar, strange, offbeat looking bird you will ever see.
They are found off the coast of Calif, in the Eastern Pacific Ocean to the Galapagos Island.
It is a marine bird.
It's called a Blue-Footed Booby because of it's bright blue feet.
(see pic)
These birds have a silly mating dance that you can view on youtube...
booby dance
it is really funny....and facinating.

Hubbel Thoughts
I have been working on, "Hubbel Employed" for a number of years. (since 2003)
Is is basically a story revolving around characters in an office setting. The story also explores their outside relationships, friendships and personal lives.
Over the years, I have seen similar "office" type comics, stories and television shows and have wondered if there is too much "office" type media out there. I have wondered about being labeled a copycat or trying to follow trends. My answer is simply this...
I have been inspired to write this comic regardless of what media is out there. I don't follow those shows or comics because I want to make sure that my ideas are fresh and new based solely upon my own life experience.
This comic is meant to be fun, entertaining and at times, very politically incorrect.
I make no apologies.
We live in a world that is carnal on steroids. We are a society driven by passions, appetites, and a drive to outdo, out perform, and over indulge. I have decided to add to this societal phenomenon by exposing "us" in comic book form, caricaturized by parallel characters. My hope is that one can hopefully relate to at least one of the characters.
Hubbel has been my passion for many years, and now I am at a point where I would like to start sharing it with friends, family, and whoever else is interested in knowing about a small insignifcant creation in my own little world, what I think, and where my heart is.
One might ask, "Which character are you?", "Which character is your alter ego?", or "Which character is most like you?". My response would be this.
ALL OF THEM.
I am sure that those who follow this blog will see the comic evolve over time, change in small or big ways and take on a life of its own. Maybe a blog isn't the best place to start, but I have to start somewhere.
I really do have something to say in this world. I have chosen to speak my mind through art, music and stories. I have no agenda. I have no propoganda. I just want to express what I feel and think and have chosen to do it through characters I have created in my own little Gondwana world.
I really hope that you will read and enjoy, "Hubbel Employed".
