Dr. Shafer was instrumental in getting built what is now Memphis’ best skatepark. It’s an outdoor affair with really good design and very slick concrete bowls. And a 16′ tall skateable steel sculpture. He and his kids should have been in the strip before, but here they are now. Dr. Shafer works at St Jude, where all the best people work.
Amen, very cool pair of strips.
Hope your behind the scenes is going well too.
Mark: “Oh, that’s where that went. Thanks.”
first one i want to say “DUH!” hehe
second its more -shakes head- lowell…shut up you just digging deeper.
Just being a bit nit-picky, but I think it would sound better if the son in the third panel said, “‘Cuz before then, you can’t see where you are going.” The way you have it currently just sounds awkward.
teen speak = sounds awkward
Clearly Greg has access to authentic teenagers and is fluent in their dialect.
Mark Wood? The electric violin guy?
I don’t know of Dr Shafer, but googley says there is a Brian C Shafer MD in Memphis area, an Orthopedic and Sports Medicine Dr. Did he help get that park built to drum up business?
Or is Dr Shafer the guy with the van Dyke facial hair on Team Youse? Dr Shafer’s web page shows a guy with a Van Dyke, and almost a mohawk.
Never mind about Brian Shafer. There is a Dr Aaron Shafer at St Jude’s in Memphis.
hey greg i have a question.
been reading the first book lately and i realized that two comics of Hubris meeting Kara’s parents are missing. the “wat” one and “you told them i was ugly and an idiot” one.
i know they not the real titles but closest i can remember lol.
any reason for them not being in the book? yep am curious hehe.
Yikes. No, they were supposed to be in there. I think you might actually be the first person to catch that.
sorry am a perfectionist in a way, plus a writer and scenarist.
didn’t give you a chance when i actually just read them all recently too.
i kept going back and forth on the pages, my wife looked at me like i was crazy hehe.
Funny you bring that up, I hit the random button 3 minutes ago and ended up at the “watt” strip. Weird, huh? Those were two really good ones, too.
yeah i was sad to not have them on the book hehe.
I found them, saved them, printed them off, and stuck them into my book where they should be, more or less. DIY version II.
“i meant to do that” fan version? hehe
Summatin like dat, Karmakat. Apropo, isn’t it?
often am
or managing to turn words around or translate the “sub text” behind them hehe
I believe that book is from a ‘print on demand’ site. (Is it very difficult to edit those?
Not sure. I had to have help on those books, and the company I want to get the new ones from is different, so I may not get the chance to find out. Maybe I should re-do the pages and shift them over to the other printer.
i published 4 novels and 2 comics by myself before i found a edition house that would sign a contract with me. sincerely it’s not the worse thing to do but it’s time AND brain consuming.
like with taxes i felt myself reach for headache pills and vodka often especially the first times i admit.
If another outdoor fest is in the offing, here is a competition that I would love to see:

Not only is it suitably daffy for the denizens of the Hubrisphere, but I find it especially amusing to imagine Lowell on a roll (literally).
