A Beginning…

In order to infuse some life into this lifeless blog, I have come up with a new comic strip. Below is a short description of all the characters that will feature in it. Remember, these are just the lead characters; some new characters might appear at some point in time. Their description will be added accordingly. This comic strip will probably help to enliven the blog; plus, if I’m lucky enough, some newspaper might employ me as its part-time cartoonist. In order to maintain the uniformity of the blog, one comic strip will feature after every two blog posts.

Now, let us meet the characters of Incompetent Os:

1. Pott: (Mr. Pott Belly)
Pott Belly is a poor farmer residing in a small village called Voracity. He tries to make both ends meet by selling ostrich eggs, a rare delicacy. Potty (as he is affectionately called) is constantly troubled by brash and unreasonable people around. He prefers to spend most of his time with Os and encourages it to lay as many eggs as possible.

2. Os: (Incompetent Osus)
Os is Pott’s lovable but moronic ostrich. This harebrained bird fails to lay eggs properly and even if it succeeds in doing so, the egg invariably gets smashed because of its boorish alacrity. It attends numerous seminars on “Laying eggs – Distant dream or a certain possibility?” and takes advice from its sisters time and again. Os sits on its eggs in a very awkward manner.


3. Pus: (Pussy catus)
Pus is an extremely lethargic cat that does nothing throughout the day. It can hardly articulate and says nothing except an occasional “Purr.”

4. In-mate: (No-better-namus)

In-mate is a mute, gawky bird that is occasionally seen flying in the comic strip panel. It ricochets in the panel resulting in serious injuries to the other characters due to its sharp beak.

Now, the first comic strip is just two blog posts away!
