It all started in December 2008. My sisters and I were recording songs for a Christmas CD we were going to give our parents. We needed a name for our band, so we went on one of those band generator websites. Insecure Hippo was the first name that popped up for us, so we used it.
It then became the name of our low budget Horor Film “production company.” Insecure Hippo Films.
The Creative Commons Hippo I picked for the logo looked pretty cool. So cool that I thought he’d look cool in his own comic strip.
On July 24, 2017 the first episode of Insecure Hippo the comic strip was born. A few episodes later, he got himself some friends, and the rest is history.
