I’M A SOUND EFFECT

My buddy, Doug TenNapel, used my name as a sound effect in his latest graphic novel Iron West

This seems to be a tip ‘o the hat to ROBOT BASTARD!

Thanks, Doug!

    Rob, you always had the best sound effects. I don’t have the Scud issues in front of me, but I seem to remember “Take” and “Nab!”

    Maybe something associated with the sandwich writing too?

    Ha. I found that some of the fight scenes in Iron West made me think of Scud…especially the big final scene which I’ll just call the transformer scene so I don’t ruin it for anyone who has yet to read it.

    SCHRAB sounds more like the sound effect one would hear if a dead, wet beaver was thrown against a barn.

    Sorry if that offends you or brings back unpleasant memories of ex-girlfriends.

    Great attitude Rob. I guess you did write Monster House. Number 2 movie of the summer.

    Wow… thats awesome, I didn’t even notice that and I flipped through it twice.

    It just sounded like a proper metal tearing/smashing sound to me “SCHRAB!”, especially if you really roll “CH” like the CH sound in Channukah.

    It rhymes with Rob. “Rob-Schrab.”

    I was wondering how long it would take for you to find that. It was totally inspired by that Robot Bastard shot which you were crafting when I went out to Milwaulkie. In my next comic when a guy eats a shroom it makes the sound “DAN”.

    TenNapel is funny and clever.
    I hope to be a sound effect one day.

    I still envision it sounding like Scarab.

    And that Rob eats the flesh off of Mummies to torment them.
