Here is the very first Towner comic strip ever drawn in 1997. It features Towner with one of his friends, Butski – a kid that has some odd habits, including hanging out in garbage bins.

This very 1st strip in the comic’s history was based on a similar joke to the very 1st Chrusher Comic (that basically is missing, confiscated by Oswego Middle School teachers in 1987, but this one from 1988 was a reprise or retelling of sorts).

Butski is a kids-sized version of a character of the same name in my own ChrusherComix.
