The History of the Phat Dragon Universe.
Birth
Phat Dragon as we know it today was born one day in my Eleventh Grade Chemistry class, almost three years ago. The Teacher
offered extra credit to anyone who would have a picture taken of themselves in a public place with their regents review book.
Naturally, my friend Justin and I decided to take the extra credit assignment "To the Limit", and we opted to make a Kung-Fu
Movie starring the regents review book. We named it "They Call Me Phat Dragon", after a ridiculous Kung Fu movie Justin had
seen a few weeks earlier. We decided both lead characters should be named Phat Dragon, and that the villain should be terrible
inept and the Hero should kill himself for pretty much no reason. The plot of this movie can be found in the 100th strip

Or in an earlier plotiline which I am too lazy to link to. Anyways, the movie came out to be 17 minutes of sheer kung-fu hilarity,
and we convinced the Chemistry teacher to show it in class. Much hilarity ensued.
The summer immediately following that I started messing around with Photoshop and Megaman Sprite Sets, and thus the Sprite
Comic was born.
