Mad Dog McGillicuddy and his Rabid Band of Howler Monkeys

Special Episode 5/1 dedicated to Steve Prestwich, 1954-2011. I wanted to do two things with this series of Special Episodes. 1) To showcase each band member's talents and unique lifestyles, and 2) To progress the narrative somewhat, building a bridge to the next series. Moreso than any SpEps run, this one ties directly to the ensuing series... So, Beardo is clearly a genius (as we've explored before), but a flawed one, as his creation is imperfect. I struggled for ages to decide what band Jambot would choose. In planning, and when I first drew it, it was Shannon Noll (lame Australian pop/rock tool). But his name wouldn't quite fit, so I had to think shorter. Although Poison have some rockin' tunes, and are an important feature of the 80s hair metal scene, their lead singer, Bret Michaels, is probably the biggest tool in the universe...
