AVATAR – Comic – Husam – Gnu of the Free Software

[Husam]

Hi,

I'm entering this contest in the hope that it might finally bring an end to my long creative hiatus . Here's a -literally- dirty sketch just to get things going, so please excuse my lack of neatness . Granted, it probably isn't the most original idea, but here's hoping that at least it turns out fun to create . I'll edit this post to write the story very soon. So stay tuned folks!!

EDIT: Here's the story..

This story, dear friends, is about a poor artist with quite an exceptional talent. A descent man who believed in a day's work for a day's pay. His poverty never succeeded in swaying him away from his moral uprightness. Until that one night when he grew tired of the world and what it has turned into. A soulless machine that sucks the very blood out of good people such as himself. He vowed that he would pay the hideous monsters of greed and gluttony his food money no more. He set out to find a pirated version of Illustrator. That's when his computer screen flashed violently and an elderly creature who dressed like a monk sprung forth from it. He advised our friend not to succumb to the wicked ways of piracy, and offered him Inkscape as a suitable alternative. After days of learning and using it, the artist discovered the enlightening truth: Free software IS actually .. rubbish. "Screw that Gnu, I'm cracking Illy," he mumbled.
True Story

I know, I know..it's rather corny. But hey, that's what comics are for. No?
