I got the idea for this comic last summer, when I was staying in Bucharest. I often went to the vegetable market, and drooled over all the delicious Romanian vegetables. Of all vegetables cucumbers have a very, very special place in my heart (and stomach), and when I saw the big sacks full of yummy little cucumbers at the stalls of the cucumber sellers, I wished I could have a whole sack ... Thus, Haiducul Castravete, the cucumber bandit, was born. He lives in the Carpathians and steals cucumbers from the peasants. 'nuff said ...
Haiducul Castravete was created by Tinet Elmgren in July 2004. The background on this page is from Queen's FREE world (Tinet herself was too lazy). |
