Inside The Book No. 46

If ever there was a bad character idea, it was this early basket-ball themed character Rebound. I don’t know what I was thinking, really. While I almost immediately realized that I was playing into stereotypes, Rebound did give me the inspiration for Tilt! It would have been cool if I could make this work, because basketball is everywhere in Indiana.
Hey ths is the reason why I love your work. I'd be truly dissapointed if you had played into the sterotypical hype alot of other comics wallow in.
Thanks, Arrr. Yeah, I hate to use an overused word like "irony," but this character lacked any irony whatsoever.
And still, nowhere near as goofy as Skateman.
I don't remember Skateman (was he a Spider-Man villian?), but Skateman makes me think of Rail Man. Rail Man makes me think of a character who is a living embodiment of a Tesla rail gun, which could be quite interesting. Thus are new characters born!
"Rebound" kinda sounds more like a supervillain who sleeps with chicks after a bad breakup.
Well, that would have been a much funnier use the name than a basketball themed character, I'll give you thatxD
