Have you seen the videos of people slack-lining tandem? It’s nuts. Either they have to be in a sort of lockstep that causes no wave action in the strap, or they bounce around like… well, like a cartoon.
Or like me when I was fifteen and broke my ankle while on a trampoline with a kid that outweighed me. That slingshot action is tough, man. Very tough.
So! Troy was at the inaugural NCSFest in California a couple of weeks ago. He and I hung around with more cartoonists than you’d be wise to shake a stick at. I wish all you guys could have been there. But until next year’s NCSFest, you’ll just have to dream of being immersed in so much cartoony goodness.
‘Mean Green Caffeine’ is actually my pet name for the soda I’m addicted to.
It’s been a while since we saw ol’ Funzo. I had to pull out the old Stanky Creek book to see the outfit again. I had forgotten the backpack.
And we finally get to see nematodes hanging off of our poor ol’ competitors. And the Pig.
It’s always the way, isn’t it?
It’s like when you hold the door for someone at maybe the movie theater or someplace, then the next thirteen people brush through as though you were holding the door for them, not one of them bothering to put a hand on it to take the onus off of you. Then you see some nice older person and you figure you’ll hold the stupid door open a little while longer for that li’l ol’ soul who might appreciate it…
and they’re the person who takes the weight of the door off you as thought you’re insulting them by holding it, and lets you rejoin your family who are already across the parking lot waiting at the car and wondering where the hell you’ve been.
I still haven’t seen the final episode either, but the News says I’m supposed to be disappointed or outraged or something.
And so, you get to see some of the craziness that’s going on here.
I’m getting ready to get myself a Cintiq…
I have SIX books to sell at booths now…
I’ve been at the inaugural NCSFest since last Wednesday…
Stephan Pastis (Pearls Before Swine) won the big fancy Cartoonist Of The Year award after being nominated seven times… or is it eight?
And now the sun has set upon this year’s NCSFest.
I’ve got two unfinished Hubris cartoons in the computer I thought I’d have finished sometime over the weekend. I might get them done in the airport? Wish me well.
Another monochromatic cartoon for you. I’m at the big ol’ NCSFest in Cali, and you’re welcome to come visit me there.
I’ll get color added to these as soon as I can.
Your eyes are, so far as I know, perfectly fine.
You’ll just have to put up with a couple of black and white cartoons this week.
They’re very nicely drawn black and whites, though… Maybe print them out, take a crayon or two to them, and when I get back and get them finished up, we’ll compare our color choices.
