This was a crazy idea for a comic, originally inspired by some of the 'made-up-as-I-went-along' madness of The Whole Cast's Cassette. The idea was simple enough. All of the species from all the other comics were friends with a human called Terence (where in Frith's name do I get my ideas for names!). He had a magic microphone, which allows anyone who possesses it to become famous.

There is another character though, named Scot. He talks with a very strange accent, which I suspect started off as a vain attempt on the cassette to sound Scottish. The words 'How Excarting' (How exciting) are appended to nearly everything he says. His role is to try and get hold of that microphone at all costs, however everything he tries results in bad luck for him.

I think this whole 'magic microphone' idea was probably inspired by a cartoon of the mid-90s known as 'Where's Wally' *Starts humming #Where, Where, Where, Where's Wally# * In that Wally had a magic walking stick that some bad guy was always trying in vain to get hold of. Heck, I even wear the same red and white top as him in this strip!

Despite the somewhat crazy sounding premise, this comic became one of my favourites, mainly due to the original and ludicrous plots. =:D
