Director's Commentary

Poor old Simon Paceman hasn't really come far since I sketched him down for the first time. Unbelievably, this is one of those first times that I've actually thrown out a character that isn't some kind of cliche self insertion. It seems all writers/creators/artists or rather, hacks, tend to rely on creating a main character that is essentially themselves but I've managed to avoid it this time.

 

The original concept of Spaceman was actually that he had a fairly square head, was a real tough guy and that the comic would have bold black lines. Some how only the last element stuck and so we instead have the fairly rotund utterly inept Simon Paceman instead of his much feared never created counterpart.
