The Last Man on Earth to Get The Cooties



"I rolled up my sleeve and exposed my cootie shot.
I said, 'Ain't nothing personal, man. I'm sorry.'"

This is from a song I wrote which is on my album New Good Old Days. I started writing this song when I was about 13, but I was writing it and illustrating it to be a comic book. (I'll try digging around for that original panel. I have it around here somewhere.)

I was thinking about how there had to be somewhere a man who was the last one to be tagged on the playground and given The Cooties before everyone around the world had their shots. It would of course mean being ostracized for life.

I drew this on the plane, on the way home from somewhere.
