Martin-chan by @jesshaye (Jessica Hayes)

Kasey and I are planning a comic project together and one of the characters is an erstwhile anime fangirl turned goth who had legally changed her name to "Martin-chan." (We actually named her that after a dickweed goth at our school named Martin, but since that Martin is a guy we added the -chan suffix . . . etc.)

One day she needed something to wear but everything was dirty except for a gaily colored jumper her friend, Crovis, had left at her home, so she wore it. She liked it. She was kicked outta her goth clique for it, poor gal.

Her job is giving pony rides to children.

She likes real butter with her cereal. Artwork © Copyright 2002 Jessica Hayes
