Jamie Smart notes on his blog that his Count Von Poo strip that was running in children’s comic Toxic after winning the Toxic Presents competition in March 2009. Like Jamie says on his blog:
The reasons why CVP has been dropped, were an unease with the kid-playing-with-poo interface, which i always anticipated but we’d been tweaking the strips so as to be careful, and I thought we’d found a nice groove. CVP was an immense amount of fun to write and draw, obviously. It’s a vampire who has imaginary adventures with faeces. How could that not be fun? …. What I can happily say is that Toxic said there’d been no complaints about CVP. NONE. Again, it’s a vampire. Who has imaginary adventures with FAECES. and NO ONE complained? Brilliant.
Jamie Smart‘s also responsible for Space Raoul from Slave Labor and the recently published Ubu Bubu: Filth.
