Detective Paco Comix!

Number One Son - the eminent Richmond tattooist - created this Detective Paco comic-book-style picture as my Christmas present (the skirt, incidentally, looks suspiciously like his girl friend). Might make a nice t-shirt!

The artwork captures your ever present air of insouciance perfectly. The custom grips on the revolver are a nice touch, also. Number One Son is obviously a talented lad with a very cute, if somewhat restrained, girlfriend.

Paco said...

Thanks, Nash. I think it's right nice, too.

It's wonderful! And it would make a GREAT t-shirt! PLEASE let me know when and where to send the check!

Small. Prefer brown or green.

You have a gifted family in more ways than one, Paco, I know how proud you must be.

Very nice, Paco! Most worthy of a t-shirt, indeed. But.....no booze? Skirts, guns, smokes, but no booze? Is the Son of Paco a teetotaler?

PS: "Restrained" girlfriend -- heh!

Merry Christmas, Paco and friends!

Wron and his spicy burritos disguised as smoke. Clever, very clever!:)

Your little man has a graphic career ahead of him :). Nice work, although perhaps the GF look-alike is telling us more than we need to know about the nature of that relationship...

Can't wait for the short story collection - Detective Paco and the Conquest of Goons!

Yojimbo: You don't think it's maybe a little too subtle?

Yojimbo said...

Pacosan: Ha! Not at all, not at all, especially given "your present air of insourciance". I guess that green stuff is a graphic representation of a "after the burritos" scene.:)

Maybe "restrained" should be kept under wraps?

Destined to be a classic!

mojo said...

I dunno, Paco. Might be a little too much "Hunter Thompson meets Dashell Hammett" vibe goin' on...

SB: mongo
No, really.

Mojo: Perceptive art experts have noted a close resemblance between Detective Paco and a photograph of yours truly that was once posted on this blog.

Seriously, Paco, very nice. Put me down for two 2Xs here, please.
