(WARNING! DIRTY PICTURES!)
One of the core “concepts” of this book (I use the word “concept” pretty loosely, as the notions that go into my comics don’t lend themselves well to verbal description) is the idea that the boys have somehow found the entrance to a place that I visit frequently in my dreams called the “Infinite Basement.”
The “Infinite basement” is an impossible place of endless chambers and downward projecting stairways that lead into an endless variety of rooms and storage units filled with inexplicable devices and machinery with indiscernible purposes.
Because in my real life, the basements of every place I‘ve ever lived were infested by squirrels, I decided that in this book, the squirrels were a necessary functioning component of the “Infinite Basement”, keeping it functional in ways that defy comprehension.
I decided that the “Infinite Basement” was an enormous machine unto itself, with the squirrels being its chief source of power, in some inexplicable way. Hence, the title of the book.
I never really explored the idea very deeply in the book, as I got more involved with how the boys interact with the place, and their own character flaws. Perhaps, when I get to the additional pages of the final chapter (which I plan on expanding) I’ll be able to make it more cohesive. I doubt it, though. It’s not as if I have any control over these narratives.
Hans needs money, and that means he's selling original art from his various comics projects! Won't you take some time to peruse the selection here?
All pages are 9”x12” on 80lb off-white Strathmore Paper
(NOTE: Many pages from Chrome Fetus Studios are composites of different drawings on multiple bits of paper and flotsam - sometimes crudely cobbled together with glue or tape. You may also find pencil marks, scribbled notes and graphite thumbprints. Consider these features as a means of certifying the genuineness of the artwork!)
All artwork is mailed in cardboard and a protective cellophane sleeve. Signature on pages available by request only, as some collectors prefer the art without it.
