The idea for Irene came from me looking through my earlier sketches. I found out that, before I had Moe's Secret Friends, I was going to do a week's worth of strips with the Jones family as merpeople. I was going to call it "Moepeople." (I really can't remember why I abandoned the idea.) Anyway, I found out that one of my ideas for it was to have Julia's tail be extremely long. That's where this comes from.
Irene's name has absolutely no intentional connection with Hurricane Irene (currently forming in the Atlantic Ocean).
