Gabriel.  The "character" looks like a near-duplicate of Dave's character Drip with some modifications.  You can't widdle-waddle your way into saying its something completely different when its blatently obvious where you got the inspiration from.  So give Dave his credit already.

I knew it looked exactly like drip,  You don't honestly think I take anything Seriously,  I was being intentionally silly for the purposes of creating drama, and it is a fascinating conversation peice. (at least for me...I'm bored out of my skull.)

We've had some "forum drama" (tm) on this subject of late, so us mods are a bit touchy about people claiming things that just ain't so. Don't take it personally, ok? Just smile and nod, and do what we said, and you can poke fun at us next week. ;-]

Drip was created by David Hopkins in 1993.  I've seen the original artwork.  And in case you're wondering, Drip, and pretty much all of David Hopkins' characters are copyrighted - we're talking legal paperwork, fees and everything.  That said, he's usually very nice about his characters being used by others, as long as you ask and give him credit.

Thanks.  Here's the amended copyright note: http://dmfa.it-he.org/uhrp/strip041.htm

Basically I'm hosting Gabriel's comic as a side-project.  Traditionally it was about the radio project itself (which is why I'm hosting it) although it seems to have widened its scope lately.
While I try to credit people whose characters Gabriel cameos, I am relying to a degree on others since I'm only regularly reading about three webcomics at the moment, and as Jack is not among these, this one fell through the net.
