David Bowie Private Eye

Description

I've combined my love for Film Noir and bizarre juxtapositions for this strip. My original idea was for a whole series about David Bowie being a private eye who was a master of disguise, but could only disguise himself as his previous personas. The dialog would have included a lot of tough guy quips based on Bowie's lyrics. But I couldn't figure out how to make it work without becoming tedious real soon.

So I decided to pare it down to the essential elements. Good thing, too, because I got sick of this thing long before finishing it.

Naturally, since this is a strip about David Bowie, the font I used for the dialog is called Action Man.

I love this! The fun thing is that David does have a detective character! His name is Nathan Adler and he stars in Bowie's album "1. Outside".
