Just a thought.

Something tells me these guys would not be all that impressed with "March of the Penguins" or "Happy Feet".

Where did you get the idea for a Warrior Penguin Saga/Epic anyway?

Background

It started as a random doodle of a penguin while working on reception years ago. He got named Penguin Bob and started appearing in pictures and comics I made for a small fanzine.

Shortly after that, I did bigger doodles while at work with groups of penguins. I guy I used to know had an art website of his own, where he had a challenge to draw the first thing that came into your head when you saw that week's phrase. I think you had an hour to draw the picture. I used the penguins in the challenge, and after I'd done about a dozen or so I realised that more characters were developing and back stories were forming in my mind.

A friend of mine saw my pictures, and suggested that I should turn them into a book with a some text story on one page and the comic next to it, and from that the format of Penguonia was born.
