I’ve been toying with this idea for months, ever since I heard there was a Sherman and Mr. Peabody movie coming out. Seeing the trailer and liking it made me decide to actually play with it.

Four and Five were the easiest, because those were My Doctors. But I laughed my ass off at what ended up happening for Three and Seven.

Also I guess this is my proposal for a Mr. Peabody TV series if I change the names of his various Boys and Girls. Every episode is of a different Peabody, they constantly jump back and forth because there’s no continuity allowed in Jay Ward’s world outside of Rocky and Bullwinkle.

I’m kind of tempted to finish this – much tighter drawings, and my own version of the War Peabody. And probably some radically different presentation because the Internet is really a lot more hospitable to vertical scrolls than horizontals. Click through, and click again to see it full-size if your browser squashes it to fit. Any suggestions as to which companions I should fill in the blanks with are welcome; I tried to pick ones that felt like they would make interesting, and funny-looking, combinations as the sole Boy or Girl of that Peabody.

(also Three totally needs to be a riff on Searle’s drawings of Molesworth. Nine and later may end up with Gritty Teen Cartoon Reboot stylings…)
