"Sponge Warfare" ("Dodgeball")




Old jokes don't die; they get recycled. At least in the case with this picture where I have Erik in a gallant heroic pose as oncoming dodgeballs of death hurl towards him... while his barn door is wide open. I used the juvenile gag before in an illustration but discarded it because the joke was too low brow. So why did I use it again? To be frank, I have no idea. This movie really didn't give Tony and I a lot of ideas to begin with. There's only so much you can do with a concept involving dodgeball. Have him with his back (literally) against the wall while people can "see London and France" as it's being televised on ESPN 8: The Ocho? Might as well. - Jake
