Meet Wyatt

As I’m putting together the Gorbo-zine, I realized that there’s not a ton of comics establishing the whole “elf-Gorb theft dynamic”, and the ones that are there weren’t my favorites. Specifically, the idea that the elves are fully insured - and easy pickings for the Gorbs because of this - has become key to the overall Gorb arc (it’ll be a key part of both the graphic novel and some other storylines I’m working on)

So I set out to make a little comic to give this background, and it snowballed from there. Of course, most elves don’t want to be robbed, insurance or not. They think theft is bad, no matter what. They think the Gorbs are inferior, evil, and smelly.

But what if there was an elf who just saw this as business as usual? Who maybe even liked these interactions? Who saw the Gorbs as victims of a weird, messed-up system, just as he is? Who maybe - just maybe - thought the Gorbs didn’t smell that bad? (Or perhaps, depending on you who ask, had a poorly developed sense of smell?)

And so, Wyatt. I love Wyatt. I have plans for Wyatt. Stay tuned.
