Remember Pee Wee's Playhouse? Paul Reubens pre-theater stunt, Laurence Fishburne played a cowboy, Phil Hartman played a grizzled sea captain, Rob Zombie was a... production assistant. Saturday mornings opened up with 22 minutes of sheer wild craziness. Problem is, the scope iof ti's pure awesomeness was too much for a weekly series to handle. Pee Wee needed to broaden his horizons, think bigger! And so, in that sunny August of 1985, Pee Wee moved to the big screen, in Pee Wee's Big Adventure, a 90 minute epic which accurately captured the sheer power, the tragedy and the wackiness of this Saturday morning legend.
Wow, so that was a long build up to explain why I chose this title for Dave the Cat's first full length comic, and maybe it's presumptuous of me to compare my character to an iconic behemoth of a media figure like Pee Wee, but hey... that's just the way it is, got a problem? Let's fight over the internet!
Anyhow, this is based off an almost true story, read it and weep, you now you want to!
