super yoshi versus the monsters on dad's t-shirt

Yoshi seems quite happy to mix his super hero metaphors, what he seems to like doing is a sort of web-slinging superman.

When I originally drew this I drew myself wearing a t-shirt I own - a stripey one with monsters on, but I felt a little uncomfortable using someone elses design as a central part of the strip (even if it is on a website that three people look at). It wasn't so much a copyright thing (I could probably have doctorowed out of that), but just that they might not want to be associated with me and this site. I am fairly sure it makes no difference to anyone in the world, but it kind of makes it a little satisfying to me...

There is a prize for the first person to email me & identify the real-life t-shirt (i haven't disguised it that much). Obviously people who have seen me wearing the tshirt are ineligible.
I tagged this one with family powers
hey, share this!
 

Nice, i think this is one of my favorites so far. Very cute.

Hmmm no idea, but I do particularly like the colour choices in this illo :)

The ghosts of nipples past.

I used to do the spider-web-squirt thing at my dad too. By the way your pic arrived today and it looks great!

@Dave - great to know the drawing turned up, and it wasn't too horribly disappointing for you.

Dan

No treasure for me because I see you at work most day's. I would have guessed Fungo Bats t-shirt anyway.

ha! definitely one of my favourites. barring maybe the escaping robot monkeys and the guy who hides in someone's mouth to escape death. okay so top three for sure. does yoshi really have a full blown superman costume?

andrew

Yeah, Yoshi does actually have this costume - he got it second/third/fourth hand so it's a little worse for wear (no cape) but he still loves it.

Awesome comic strip! You should post at 52 comics challenges! I like your sketches too.
