At long last, the short-and-sweet story of my profile picture. Francavilla, as whimsical as Darwyn Cooke but with a dark streak that manifests itself in spades in Afterlife with Archie, draws a suave R2.
Why the droid for a profile pic? Because R2 is almost universally recognized and, unlike 99.9% of the culture icons out there, has no haterz. How could anyone hate this courageous li’l spitfire?
As a bonus, presenting one of the earliest viral clips in viral history, Star Wars Rap:
“Yea, that’s right, R2. I just set a course. We’re goin’ to Cloud City. Aahh.. that’s a mighty good gin & tonic, should mix me up another.”
