I have Darren from Just watching the wheel go round to thank for coming up with the wordplay idea for Australien. Being Australian and a lover of all things alien, I couldn’t help but draw this character. Thought he might have a flying thong spaceship to get around in too… but that’s another cartoon.
Just Outside the Box Cartoon 
We like Australien! Is it a Bruce or a Sheila?
Looks like he/she is standing on the Red Centre??
ooh, hadn’t thought about that, perhaps Australien should be androgynous. Sorry to disappoint but doing a bit of lazy cartooning, the background red centre is MArs – check it out http://wp.me/p1X90G-UG
Have two Austraiens,a boy and a girl.That will keep everyone happy…maybe ?-)

Now, that is what I call original and look at those different shapes and sizes of “mouth pieces” revolving around the Australien. Good one, Marti!
Gee, thanks Seeker. I had fun drawing the mouths, I thought it could be like a ‘dial-a-smile’ concept
It looks like the moon of Saturn for an Austr-alien.
Ha,ha.
Love it.
And just in time for an Aussie World Cup invasion of Rio,too .
Or maybe that should be an Out of this World Cup ?-)
Ha, couldn’t have planned it better had I even tried 🙂
Glad you like little Austr-alien
“Cartoons about Life, the Universe and Everything else in-between”.
If you ever draw him in a football jersey,the number would have to be 42,surely ?-)
Cool, not only the answer but a primary pseudoperfect number too.
PS. My daughter numbered her basketball top 42. A whole new generation of Douglas fans are born!
I saw James Reyne from “Australian Crawl” play the local winery up here in Brizzy last year (and I love the guy and his songs,but…) I thought it would be funny if The Australien’s favourite band was “Australien Drawl” with their lyrics sounding totally alien to anyone but the Australiens themselves.-)
I guess it all just comes down to Semantics really…or trousers .-)

Aussie crawl was one of the first CDs I bought (best of). I played it all the time back then and used to bemuse the pronunciation. I lent it to a friend and it got stuck in the CD player, never to be seen again
I like the Aussie joker (jester) type look the alien has too,I think it sums up the Aussie spirit,as I think all Aussies have a bit of that joker spirit in them.I know I have.
You’ve nailed it with this character,I think.
‘I think’ ?….. Time will tell 🙂
