So I started working on 'Derek Versus Life' - my cartoon show about a kid who is a complete loser. Finally, a show about real children. But I hit a real wall.
I couldn't decide if life was this place full of scary, hateful people, paranoia, media lies, greed, death and pain...
Well I think most people would relate to the first option (I know I do), but that means it is probably the most obvious to pick. If you can think of a way to apprach the second one well, I would tackle that one.
Tool, yeah what's with those smart Peanuts kids? I know I was an idiot at that age. That's where most of the fun of being a kid lies. I loved being an idiot and you totally get away with it as a kid.

either way, this looks like a great concept. I really dig the style BA.
Finally, a show full of truthiness.
-jx!
i think it's more about him vs something. not nothing, and not a wall of obstacles. but rather one pain in the ass after another.
LIfe is one damn thing after another right?
Have both, have a lot of nothingness with all the scary stuff outside, you can just have the nothing fade into the scary.
