The Big Lebowski and Peripheral Production

When we search about The Big Lebowski, the Dude, we can always find all kinds of exaggerated comics and dolls. Every time I see these online, I'm impressed by their vividness. Books about The Big Lebowski rarely use the Dude's photo as the cover. Instead, they always use the corresponding comics. You may often see a cartoon version Dude holding a cup of white Russian. Besides the Dude, other main characters like Walter and Donny also have their own dolls and comics. The peripheral products usually features the most obvious characteristics. The protagonists in The Big Lebowski are great for doing peripheral comics and other products cause they have apparent features. Their personalities are simple, easy to be reflected by several gestures and habits. Look at the picture on the upper right corner. The iconic sunglasses, beard and white Russian in hands, even the bathrub. These elements compose a basic image of the Dude. Readers can tell at the first glance that this is the Dude. The image in the front is dolls of the Dude and Walter. The bowling ball, Walter's body shape, and their hairstyle, all these clearly identify they two as the Dude and Walter. So, doing peripheral of these characters are interesting cause it can refine the personality of protagonists in relaxed ways. Thus, the characters can be very impressive to the viewers.
