Stan Speaks: Cape
Artist Stan Chisholm gives us insight into the story behind the mascots appearing in ThingsThatNeverReallyHappened . In this second edition we meet “Cape”
While the good of the world is turned on it back and all hope is lost, from the clouds falls a gleeful caped figure oblivious of the duties around him. With his limbs loose, eyes shut and smirk locked in, no woe or foe stands a chance.
Call it giving up, retiring, showing off, testing his new gear, being a sucker, a fallen hero, branching out and discovering new abilities, being humble, stepping down to join the civilians, rebellion, manic-depression, having a good time, or simply loosing a battle to gravity; If he hasn’t heard it he has assumed it’s been said. Plus, never in history has a cause been faithful to only one effect so he’s collecting extra credit on his way down.
