Characters that didn’t quite make it (Number 2)

By Mr Oh on February 11, 2013

How “Pooh” caught on is anyone’s guess. After all, it’s a synonym for excrement.

Still, the name was always going to be first choice over Winnie the “Piss”. Just doesn’t have an endearing ring to it, does it?

Ha Ha!!! Cracked me up. I don’t know why they thought Poo sounded better.

  Cheers, Tony. It was a bit brazen but I couldn’t resist! Loving the Tasmanians. I subscribed to my hotmail email account a while ago. I admire your regular postings, it provides real continuity to your comic. I’m thinking about self-hosting this year, focusing my work and maybe using ComicPress or Easel. I’ve been reading up on both. I notice you’re using Easel. It looks good.

    I have previously used Comicpress but think that Comic Easel is much more straight forward when posting comics as you just use the Featured Image option to upload comics

  Tee hee hee! I was going to go for Winnie the WeeWee but it wasn’t quite as punchy.

Too funny The face matches a child being trained in a potty, tho. I guess you just have to throw that jar of honey :lol

  I must have subconsciously influenced by potty training my two year old daughter!
