American Stickman

Episode 7: "Living the Dream"

2008-07-10T18:29:00.003-04:00

Commentary: In this frame, an unemployed American worker has lofty aspirations--to continue not work. A statement on the work ethic embedded in our culture, or an example of an inherent human desire to fall into limitless riches?

Episode 6: "Let it Snowden"

2008-07-09T20:27:00.007-04:00

Director's Commentary: In this frame, the spilled blood of a dying soldier evokes the horrors of war, the faceless atrocities of combat, feelings of guilt, loss, and despair. Not to mention a whole bunch of other awful, unnamable shit.

Episode 5: "A Phred's Life"

2008-07-01T18:18:00.005-04:00

Disclaimer: In this episode, the character "Phred4" makes his debut. This is what Phred4's life is actually like.

Episode 4: "Sir Charge"

2008-06-30T20:15:00.003-04:00

Director's Commentary: This episode attempts to satirize American commerce, and the old, rich, white, suit-wearing men behind mahogany desks.

Episode 3: "The Bucket List"

2008-06-25T11:39:00.004-04:00

The feel good stick-comic of the year.

Episode 2: "The RPGs of Yesteryear"

2008-06-24T17:13:00.004-04:00

Director's Commentary: the inspiration for the "The RPGs of Yesterday" came from a conversation with a friend/co-worker, and although after this conversation the relationship temporarily changed to co-worker/friend, this comic is intended as social commentary on the multiple, often hidden, roles that exist in the different facets of American life, and in no way is meant make fun of anyone.

Episode 1: "Made in American Stickman"

2008-06-23T20:49:00.005-04:00

Summary: In the pilot episode, Guy Incognito criticizes his American friend/co-worker, perhaps out of boredom, the brine-producing boredom of corporate America.
