Before I created Boy's Club - you know, Pepe, Brett, Andy, and Wolf. I was really deep into this one comic book character called Frank, by Jim Woodring. Frank wasn’t just a character to me; he was like a whole universe wrapped up in a silent, surreal creature. There was something about his form, his vibe, that stuck with me. It was weird, absurd, kind of dreamlike exactly the kind of energy I wanted to bring into my own work.
Frank’s design really opened the door for me in terms of how characters could look, not tied to any real-world logic, just existing in their own strange world. That’s where I started building the Boy's Club cast. I took that same visual freedom and absurdity and just let it flow into Pepe and the rest of the crew. There weren’t really any rules. The characters evolved as I drew them, just like how Woodring’s work felt like it was always morphing, always alive.
So yeah, Frank was kind of the prototype, not in a literal sense, but spiritually. Without Frank, I don’t think Pepe would’ve ever looked the way he does. Frank really lit the match.
