An Alien Named Can Penrod Chan



This is a quick sketch the artist produced today. On the right we have an alien Grant has identified as "Can Penrod Chan". The green alien is also named Can Penrod Chan though they don't appear related at first glance. The green Can looks like a cross between a pig with a toupee, a spider, and Alf. The blue Can seems to be a raindrop/spider hybrid. Maybe Can Penrod Chan is like Smith on their planet, or maybe our idea of what relatives look like does not apply to their species.

It's interesting that the alien's last name is Chan. Maybe the artist is showing that he finds other cultures to be foreign to him and is trying to express his desire to travel.

Could be, he does give them Penrod as a middle name, which is very accepting of him.
