ToeJam

ToeJam (Japanese:トージャム, Tōjamu. Translates back to “ToeJam.”) is one of the main protagonists of JVP’s namesake series, ToeJam & Earl.

Concept and Creation
The idea for ToeJam came when creator Greg Johnson had a dream. In said dream, he talked to “rapper homeboy” aliens. He jotted down the idea onto a piece of paper, and the next morning, came up with the designs.

His name came when Greg and Mark Voorsanger were taking a walk on a Mount Tam. His original name was “FlowJam”, but Mark misunderstood it as “ToeJam.”
