Lackadaisy is a creation of the very talented Tracy JB, her work is on display at www.foxprints.com under Ainessa.
It is set in the glorious late 1920's, set around an illegal bootlegging business in St. Louis called the Lackadaisy Speakeasy.
The three main faces are Rocky Rickaby, Calvin 'Freckle' McMurray and Miss Mitzi May...

My version simply dubbed Lackadaisy Noir and done so with her permission tells the story around the Lackadaisy Gang's actions and the effects on the world around them, basically a whole string of short stories.

To start off, a picture by Tracy which I consider the Lackadaisy Titlepage:

much has changed in both the way I draw them and my future ideas for the strip...

Sanity is so overrated stick out tongue

Aliies
Thanks lana, means alot...

At least we know that sanity is a big price to pay for being normal...
That's why I believe that to be an artist in this world, you need to have more than just a touch of section-8 in you!

IF I was in the army, they'd lock me up for being Section-8 stick out tongue

Aliies
this is my first serious work on proffesional art paper for a very long time, I call it 'montage of the mafia', depicting three characters;
Don vito (Top)
His eldest son, Michael (Right)
