Longshot Magazine (formerly known as 48 Hour Magazine) unleashed their latest theme for Issue #1 last weekend. “Comeback” was the theme, and naturally, the first idea that struck me took the form of an infamous facial hair fad.
Then, at 4:49am on Saturday, August 28th, my 4.4MB, 2550 pixel by 330 pixel baby was born. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Mr. Stachetastic.
It was so much fun to create, I actually illustrated a series out of it with two other pieces. So far I’ve covered the handlebar (as shown), the “Burt Reynolds” and a mangy hair/beard hybrid. Be on the lookout for the other two illustrations over the next couple weeks.
Any other grooming styles I should explore? Maybe the Chaplin or mutton chops? I’m open for suggestions.


Dude needs a hat, monocle, and or a bird living in his mustache (a bird with a mustache, of course). I also suggest the “Hogan” and/or the “pedo-stache”. Lookin forward to seeing more goodies!!
My friend Brent Invented the Deuxmanchu. One on your upper lip and a smaller one on your bottom lip.
Could be someone I know in their later years…CRAZY!!
