BB Comix is fresh in a South African Flavour

You know how most have to be satisfied with only being able to compose barely recognisable stick figures. Some of the Ratanga Junction characters While some people are just blessed with the skill to draw. Even more so, seem to be able to capture a subject essence. Well one such artist with that amazing drawing ability is Sean Verster. He entered the industry as a cartoonist. Many of you have driven on the N1 past billboards with characters he designed. He made a name for himself by creating the Ratanga Junction characters that I’m sure you all know. After spending many years in the industry he decided to branch off and start his own company. He took the wooden manikin by the proverbial limbs and so BB Comix was born.

BB ComixHe has a few surprises up his sleeve with some of the projects he is working on. But one of them I want to mention is DJ Ossewa. Yes the four Afrikaner dudes that run around making music in ‘Vellies’ or even worse Crocs. (In all seriousness I wear Crocs pumps because they are ‘that’ comfortable, but if I’m ever asked if I own a pair I will deny, deny, deny) He is launching a comic book with a little bit of South African flavour. The first time  when I saw these guys they had me in hysterics. Not to everyone’s’ taste, but they have one hell of a following. The show is hilarious and captivating comprising of comedy and music. Sean has captured that great tongue in cheek SA-style of humour.

The story goes that the group started about 3 years ago on a farm called Ossewa’srus. The group consists of  ‘Daniel Jakobus’ and ‘Raapie Knapie’ the two brothers, ‘Piet Pompies’ is their cousin and the last member of the band is ‘Jerbes.’ A lion farmer from the farm next door. The farming thing wasn’t working out so well for the boys, because it seems they weren’t first in the queue when God was giving out 20/20 vision. (the reason for the bottle bottom glasses) They are a sight!

So to continue ‘Ouma Beskuit’ sent them off to have some singing classes and surprisingly the boys could follow a tune. So they combined their singing with one of their other talents…they could throw one heck of a party. The result is Dj Ossewa as it is commonly known. A show not to be missed with their unique style music and wardrobe.

Guys keep your eyes pealed for when the work of this amazing cartoonist hits the stands.

Flash Dance… Kinda

I spotted this clip on YouTube. I think these kind of flash mobs are great. I think we can do with something like this is South Africa. This could make for a good reality TV show..
