The Warden

The Warden

No plant can survive 30 days in the hole.

It's so cold... dark... and empty. Oh — I was talking about The Warden's heart, but that goes for the hole too.

The Warden held the coveted title of Current Champ from Wednesday, November 14, 2007 to Wednesday, November 14, 2007, heartily vanquishing The Shiv Cactus to earn it. Unfortunately, brutal defeat came soon after, at the merciless hands of File Cake.

This hero's magnaminous likeness was captured at the moment of glorious triumph by Kevin .

Audience

Quotes overheard while standing in the crowd that gathered to watch the carnage…

  1. That's my landlord.

  2. I expect you pay utilities then as well. He looks like that kind of landlord.

  3. Have you guys ever considered throwing together a monthly mashup of one side versus the other, all on one print?

  4. I would like my desktop (Apple) to link up to this site and change each update made. Wouldn't that be great. I would stare at it all day!

  5. Wow! This is nice art. I hope this is in paper form. Or some form that's easy to steal from your house.

    Ian | [ a ]

  6. Yeah, this one is all paper, but the face and key highlights are digital. And I had to move the text to the other side so it fit better.

  7. That is one creepy Warden... kinda zombie like with a Jack Nicholson vibe from "The Shining". Nice job on that. I can't wait to see what type of creature can defeat him.

    Andy | [ a ]

  8. I like the ninja-turtle style hands he's got goin. Maybe his keys double as nunchucks. I'm just saying...

  9. The Zombie Warden- SCARY!

  10. Are the Warden and Phillip LePhipp related? They look like they could be a father & son duo if only they could patch up their differences and speak to one another again, or... at least spend the holidays together... I miss my dad.

    David | [ a ]

  11. Just wondering...is the Warden related to this guy? Perhaps they're colleagues. Or former best friends, turned bitter enemies...

    Justin | [ a ]

  12. Haha... well, I suppose that's bound to happen every once in a while, especially as more and more My Team, Your Team games start...

    Anywhoo, I can't imagine anyone turning bitter enemies with your Warden... John Candy's just too lovable!

  13. Frankly, I enjoy the crossover action. I'm just waiting for an excuse to dress up my roommates as Obstacle Force and take a picture of them for use in the Bayou Battle!

  14. The Superest would make a great T-Shirt. You could position each character in order (a bit like snakes & ladders) so that you follow the path of defeat right around the T-Shirt. I'd buy one...

    Rob | [ a ]

  15. I would actually buy a fair number of these as t-shirts, either the individual heros or the group as a whole.

    Andy | [ a ]

  16. t-shirts!?! what an idea!
    do it, kevin... you know you want to!

    and also... i just have to say, your fonts are awesome! seriously... i've loved your fonts since i first discovered bearskinrug. if we were friends in real life, i'd make you design the font for my next tattoo.

    ah well. :)

  17. The conversation here reminded me of a conversation about someone's landlord, he was crazy, but the greatest guy ever. Tenant: "Hey, we're having a party you want to come along?" Landlord: "Fuck you, I don't care! I buy the keg!"

    Vercalos | [ a ]

  18. I didn't figure it out until looking at this weeks later, but this guy is almost the spitting image of the skeleton you encounter in Dragon Warrior!
