The Elder Monkey is a character commonly found in many companies. My original idea was to make a play on 2001 A Space Odyssey's initial scene, during the 'dawn of man', where a man-ape discovers he can use a bone to crush the skull of other man-apes and hence starts, from my point of view, all technology.

I liked the idea of that man-ape not going much past that. Yes, we get it, you know how to use a bone, now can we just eat?

Problem is, I overestimated the popularity of 2001 A Space Odyssey. Apparently most people know about it, but it's not that many that have actually watched the thing. Plus, this would be the second 2001 reference in this comic, maybe I need to renew my repertoire.
