(2025 Update)

I used to love drawing Buster the Bat. I always imagined him appearing in some kind of sitcom from the late 80s or early 90s, one where a family from the American suburbs has to live somewhere in a tropical jungle and they get to meet some talking animals and stuff like that. I'm not sure if such a show existed, but if it did, maybe it had a talking crocodile, and it could've aired on the Family Channel in my home country Canada. For some reason, I always imagined him talking in the same kind of voice as Ickis from Aaahh Real Monsters, who used to be my favorite Nicktoons character. I also wanted to him to have a catchphrase, something like "Hi there, Sweetie!" or "Holy Guano!"
