About
The average story of a girl; H aka The Giant Skeleton and her new super hero lifestyle in
an alternate reality she accidently created.
With the aid of her amnesiac talking butler bear of a sidekick; Gentleman Bear (GeeBee) and her talking rat
alien-thing scientist; SushiRat.
Throw in some time traveling hijinks, genetic manipulation, weird skeleton powers and handsome
dude-in-distress; Jim that always seems to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.
That's Gentleman Syndrome for you.
Gentleman Syndrome is on indefinite HIATUS
In 2009 i had a really cool hoodie stolen from me at work. So i ordered a new one, a skeleton one.
At the time i was one of the taller members of my friend group and on one even downtown in the middle of the night i loudly proclaimed no one was going to mess with "The Giant FUCKING Skeleton" the joke stuck.
Sadly this friend group would implode on itself and would never recover to this day.
And a few weeks after that my beloved pet rat, Sushi would pass away. 2009 was not a very good year. (remember how many celebrities died??)
Gentleman Syndrome is a bit of an exploration on my late teens into adulthood and the messiness that comes along with it.
What if i accidently deleted a huge chunk of my DNA from time and space and got a chance to start over??
Not without a bunch of fuckups along the way.
Gentleman Syndrome also adapts an older story i worked on in highschool called "Misplaced Rebel". That's where Jim and his band come from.
it wasn't a very good story...just a dumb teen romance. LOL.
2013 (after another not so great event) was when i really started to develop a more coherent plot, world build and try and push myself artistically. But...by 2016 i think i grew up and was able to process all the hurt and loss 19yr old me went through.
i've gone back and forth revisiting Gentleman Syndrome over the years.
i've always known where Gentleman Syndrome ended...right where it began.
