Remember that old The Maxx comic book/Mtv Cartoon by Sam Kieth? Well, at the time that I drew this I had no clue who or what this was, but the resemblence to The Maxx is uncanny. Looks more like a younger version though, maybe I should have renamed the title to "Son of The Maxx".
Promo character, back story: Prior to his capture by local fisherman, Fisho Deceaso was a respected Dr./scientist who recided in a coral reef South West off the coast of Japan. Prior to his capture he generated a potion mixed with an ancient life-giving flower which gives him immortality. However, Fisho drank the potion on the fisherman's boat, after his capture, so the effect did not kick in until he was dead. Once ashore, his mission in life is to prevent fisherman and sushi chefs from ever capturing more sea life in the ocean. One of his weaknesses is that he can no longer swim or breathe under water, and his stench as well as the swarm of flies around him, usually give his position away when hunted by angry fishermen and sushi chefs.
