Sly Cooper and his dear friend, Jojo

Okay, so a lot of you probably won't get this one... but if you look 2 posts back, you'll realize that I love Sucker Punch and both Sly and Jojo are Sucker Punch characters (all copyright Sucker Punch, etc.). Sly, is, of course, from Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus and Jojo is from Rocket Robot on Wheels. (By the way... Rocket only has A wheel... dunno.) Rocket is actually a really tough game. I've played all 3 Sly games at least 5 times through, 100% completion, but I have yet to find all those friggin tickets in Rocket and I REFUSE to look it up on the internet. That's not how I roll. (lol...pun... anyone? no?) Anyway, in my scramble to do some great fan art for Sucker Punch before I run out to Seattle in a month, I did this, and I love it, mostly because Sly is ALWAYS calm, composed and has a smug look on his face. Because of that, this was too fun to draw. I want to put in text bubbles, but while I was doodling it, there were several lines that came to mind...

1. "Sly, I am your father!" "No! No! That's impossible! My father was killed by the fiendish five!" "Look in your heart, you know it to be true."
2. "You call yourself a thief?! Try stealing a walrus from an amusement park!" "WTF?!"
3. "Back in my day, we didn't have fancy 'resolution' or HD graphics. We depended on game play alone for a great title!" "THE HORROR! I'm blind just thinking about it!"
4. "I don't understand a word this guy is saying, it's all Zelda grunts! Make it sto-hopppp!"
5. "I could get away from this psychopath if I just had my $%#*%& cane!"
6. "Sucker Punch is going to dump you too now that they have their infamous (lol) Cole MacGrath!" "Whhhyyyyyy?! What did I do to deserve this?!"
#1 is easily my favorite, followed by #6. Just make sure when you read any of those, Sly has a heavy sobbing quiver in his voice. :D Let me know what you think!

Also, to anyone who got any/all of my "jokes"... you're special.



Update: Here's the final version!
