You may be noticing a recurring element on the Bean…Wolpertingers. I am simply fascinated. I was first aware of wolpertingers when I came across the idea of a Jackalope with wings. Technically the addition of another species’ characteristics to the elusive jackalope, transformed it into something different, something more: a wolpertinger. Wolpertingers are legendary creatures that show up in German folklore (wikipedia). They are typically the combination of characteristics from three or more unique animals. They are great doodling inspiration (as seen on the Bean):

I drew wolpertingers; well except for that snaky cat head. I am dangerously close to naming the wolpertinger my spirit animal, because why not?
