Meet, Teachy Hollow.
A poor S.O.B. stuck teaching middle school brats. As if his life hadn't been shitty enough, he was decapitated during a freak pep rally accident. Finally released from his hellish lifestyle, he's come back to wreak havok on the dirty little terrors that made his life a living hell. Payback's a bitch.
A friend and I were discussing old myths and legends today. As a kid who grew up loving comics and stories of all types, it was the real outlandish or sensational stories that hooked me the most. The Sleepy Hollow story was one that always enthralled me. At it's core, it was a big scary dude on horseback who was out for other peoples heads. What's there that's not to love? Love him or hate him, The Headless Horseman is the basis for todays sketch.
I think this is an idea I may revisit in the future, as I had a blast drawing this up. Re-imagining old or classic characters can be tons o' fun. Unfortunately, I've no time for a "blog"-ish post for now, but I wanted to make sure I got a sketch up. If there's anyone out there that's even seen this at this point, I hope you enjoy it!
