Originally, Jason’s last name was “Braddock”. I fully admit that I was watching one of the Chuck Norris Missing in Action films when I decided to use Braddock as his last name. Jerry used to hang around with our group at Bumpers, a local restaurant, and he would draw these characters on anything he had handy. This was drawn on the back of a piece of paper that we used to call “The Blurb”. It was a news brief that was placed on the tables for the customers to read. We would use them for everything under the sun during our hours of consuming coffee in that establishment. It’s evident that this was one of the blurbs, as they typeset shown through the scan of the drawing. As far as Jason goes, I feel that Jerry got the character spot on.
