Artist's Comments

Disclaimer: What follows is a LONG explanation of how this picture works. You don't have to read if you don't want to. /
I know this concept has already been done before, but I couldn't resist doing it myself! This is yet another parody of "The Watchmen" main cast lineup, but this time; the characters are portrayed by the "Camp Lazlo" crew! :D /

Raj: The Comedian; Traits: being fat, lazy, sarcastic, and obnoxious; Superpowers: His incredibly obese armor-like stomach, fat feet stomps which cause earthquakes, and his loud, sonic burps; Favorite Quote: "SOMEBODY'S got to bring respect to the superhero world. BURPPPP!!!!! And it ain't going to be me!;" Most Likely to: Die by choking on a turkey sandwich like Cass Elliot supposedly did.
Edward: Rorsarch; Traits: mysterious, enigmatic, and slightly psycho-pathic; Superpowers: His webbed feet stick to any surface which allow him to walk or run anywhere, and his tail has been polished and modified to break many things; Favorite Quote: "Last night, a Comedian died and nobody cared. Nobody, but me!;" Most Likely to: Get his memory erased and fall in love with a male monkey hero.
Clam: Dr. Manhattan; Traits: Lonely, melancholy, sad, distant, honest, and omniscient; Superpowers: Too many to count!; Favorite Quote: "Many wish that they could see into the future. I might be the only one that wishes not to.;" Most Likely to: Leave Earth to live on Mars.
Lazlo: Ozymandias; Traits: Rich, powerful, popular, perky, sociable, and well-liked by everyone who MATTERS to him; Superpowers: Bio-chemically enhanced gloves, boots, and cape that allow him to glide through the air, mimic the material structure of other objects, and leap great heights and great distances; Favorite Quote: "I would do practically ANYTHING to save the Earth! And I DO mean anything!;" Most Likely to: Make an Earth-changing decision that will haunt him for the rest of his life.
Samson: Nite Owl II; Traits: Strong, determined, smart, kind, mechanically gifted, brooding, angst-filled, loyal, loving and lovable to anyone who's nice to him; Superpowers: Infrared goggles which track heat movements, give X-rays, and can see up to a 1,000 times better than a normal person's eye-sight as it allows the user to see great distances/Sonic Ears that can pick up radio frequencies, telepathic frequencies, wireless audio transmissions, provides, instant translation of foreign languages into English, and low-pitched or high-pitched noises 100 times greater than the normal ear can hear,/Rocket Jet Boots which allow the user to fly either horizontally, diagonally, vertically, for great heights and lengths within Earth's atmosphere,/and a whole lot of mechanical gadgets for any other action situation; Favorite Quote: "A good superhero will face any situation that comes to face them. A great superhero will be prepared for any situation that CAN come to face them! I am a great superhero, and I am the NITE OWL!;" Most Likely to: Fall madly in love with an actual female owl and former squeeze of another superhero.
Almondine: Silk Scepter II; Traits: Fast, swift, acrobatic, agile, subtle, flexible, practical, emotional, wily and cunning (but for good reasons); Superpowers: Different lipsticks to either melt locks with a special kind of acid, freeze water, hypnotize and/or poison bad guys, and a scepter to provide even greater acrobatics and stunts of agility; Favorite Quote: "The odds of a female making it in a world of testosterone male superheros are 5 against 1, and the odds are all in my favor!;" Most Likely to: Make love to a male hamster in an owl-shaped helicopter. /

The reasons I picked who I picked: Raj is The Comedian simply because both characters are NOT funny in any way, shape or form whatsoever, they're too tired and lazy to actually be REAL good guys, and both characters end up becoming one-dimensional fat jokes. Edward is Rorsarch because out of all the "Camp Lazlo" characters, he's the one most likely to think of committing cruel and unkind acts, even if those acts are justifiable. Clam is Dr. Manhattan because I had originally considered Freddie the Walrus for the part, but that would've been too obvious as Freddie is already blue to begin with, and Clam fits the part better since it's relatively difficult to get inside the head of either Clam or Dr. Manhattan, they tend to keep to themselves, and neither of them speak much to their friends while anything of importance is going on. I know it's VERY out of left-field to have Lazlo as Ozymandias, especially since Lazlo is the absolute good guy of "Camp Lazlo!" But there's actually a logical reason why I suited up Lazlo as the main antagonist. Lazlo is SEEN as the good guy of "Camp Lazlo," Ozymandias is seen as a good guy in "The Watchmen;" Lazlo is charming, witty, optimistic, popular, and well-loved by many, Ozymandias is pretty much the same way; Lazlo has an almost addictive-like craving/need for attention, positive or otherwise, and Ozymandias wanted the world to pay attention to what he was doing in the name of Dr. Manhattan. And since Lazlo would do ANYTHING to bring peace to the world of "Camp Lazlo," and Ozymandias DID do something to bring peace to the world of "The Watchmen," it's really not that much of a stretch that Lazlo COULD become an Ozymandias of the "Camp Lazlo" world. Samson is the Nite Owl II as both characters are logical, scientific, contemplative about how the world works, always ready and eager (sometimes too eager) in willing to trust, make partnerships, and become friends with others. But Samson always tries harder to become a better camper, just like the Nite Owl II always tries harder to become a better superhero. Almondine is the Silk Scepter II not by choice, but by necessity. Since Samson is the Nite Owl II and the Nite Owl II falls in love with the Silk Scepter II, Samson needed to have a girl he could fall in love with. And even though I've long since established the whole Samson and Almondine being together as an item for 2 long years (for couple fused names, the two of them together are Samsondine!) :lol: The fact of the matter still stands that Almondine is a good choice for the Silk Scepter II. The Silk Scepter II is the daughter of the original Silk Scepter; Almondine's motherly figure is Jane Doe, who could conceivably have been Silk Scepter I in the parody that I've drawn! And the reason Almondine isn't wearing her eyeglasses is because Silk Scepter II doesn't wear any eyeglasses. (Almondine is wearing contacts, they probably make them in the worlds of "Camp Lazlo" and "The Watchmen" as well as our own.) And the quote above them asks the famous question: "Who's Watching The Watchmen?" :idea: / Sorry for the LONG explanation, but I just wanted to explain my choices to the fans of both "Camp Lazlo" and "The Watchmen!" :D And by the way, this is a family-friendly picture courtesy of Edward's strategically placed Platypus tail blocking Clam's unseen nudity! Enough said! ;)
