I'm a big fan, and this 'noir' piece really does it for me! I love Ted's expressisons, where he seems well pleased with himself for this for havoc just wreaked, or about to be unleashed on someone/thing.
You've pulled off expressions without actual eyeballs and you should be applauded for that, not always easy!
I too would like to see the return of the black circles behind Ted's eyes - the more maniacal the better I say!
Joe Butcher created The Purple
Gerbil by accident, when he was really attempting to do something
more important and politically accurate. He wanted to create
something beautiful, something meaningful. But all he could
squeeze out was a manically depressed purple rodent. Go Figure.
Joe currently resides in Birmingham, England, where there
is an abundance of filth and depravity, which Joe readily
adopts as the subject matter of his work.
Hi Joe,

Love it all Joe! So do my 2 Gerbils!
