A great setting it sounds like. Close to a major thouroghfare, but local enough to perhaps hide in a bit, so to speak. Donno what your comic is about, but it sounds like a good combination.

The setting provides serveral things that are siginificant to the comic's themes

I don't want to reveal too much of the plot, but has a theme somewhat borrowed from "The Prince and the Pauper" and "The Whipping Boy". The rock band "Stag" is made up of a bunch of prima donnas that have more money and fame then they know what to do with. I figure the best way to create a story out of that is to somehow have them stranded in blue-colar America.

The comic will have a lot of political themes to it, many that compare the turbulant 60's and 70's with some of the stuff that goes on today, I feel the 70's deep south would be a good stage for this since civil rights would still be very much an issue there, religious-right politics would be just rearing it's ugly head, and the band itself would face severe anti-hippie sentiment.

And finally for the comic I plan to introduce an American rock band that would be somewhat competitive with Britan's "Stag." Since stag is distinctly British for being a glam rock band like Slade, Sweet or David Bowie, I figure a distinctly American equivilent would be a southern rock band like Molly Hatchet, ZZ Top, or Lynard Skynard. The band would be full of it's own prima donas and would echo Stag's members in many ways.

Lol po-dunky...well that is somewhat of a good description. We're one of the more prestegious towns in Georgia, but not many people come by; except to visit the Wild Adventures theme park.
