Hotels are confusing enough when you have lights on. After that, it’s just hopping around in the dark hoping you don’t “go” in the closet.

The title today may be weak. Depends on how hip you are to very, very old TV shows.
Either way, Steven’s in trouble. Kara’s in trouble. When you’re in trouble, it’s never good to get separated. So, y’know, they’re in Double Trouble.
“Double Couple Trouble.”
That should be a game show.
Kara has a point. You gotta have a Lake Superior or something if you want current. Or tides. Or rafts that have come untied and are coming after you.
Buck’s Pass Lake is NOT that kind of lake. Usually. That’s what I heard.
You can hear it, too, but you have to hang out with drunks who are fishing and have been out all day … and came back to shore only ’cause the cooler “Got empty.”
“Well, I’m back.”
Three guesses as to the name of the book that used that as its final words.
Apologies for the long, long, loooong delay. Life had to be lived, bills had to be paid, work had to get deadlined.
So- anyone remember where we were? It was a dark and stormy night. Something like that. Ryan and his brother Mal, and Mal’s close friend Shelley, are driving to the fishing cabin where they were expected by Ryan’s fishing buddies. Their names, according to the cartoon above, include “Big Ron”. And according to your memories of The Great Stanky Creek Outdoorfest Part 2, the other fisherman would be Duke. He must have been the guy filling out the Stanky Creek paperwork, too, ’cause the name of their team was “Them Duke Boys.” and you can’t trust Duke to fill out paperwork without some antic being perpetrated.
I don’t think I ever wrote that into the cartoons. That’s just background for you. (“Background” means stuff I meant to include in the story, then didn’t have room or inclination for)
Also, if anyone knows how to dig into the Dashboard on these dang websites and get things working correctly, by all means, get in touch and tell me how to fix this one.
Why the heck isn’t anyone seeing Gryphons still flying around? Did they die out? There should be some kind of outrage! Gryphons were majestic creatures, worth our respect and part of the Ancient Greek ecosystem!
Don’t let this tragedy go unmentioned! Spread the word through social media! Get someone to make a commercial using a famous artist’s heartrending pop song! We must let the world know that a made up animal can’t disappear from someplace it never actually existed without us caring about it!

At the moment, we only see the surface. I bet, deep down, he’s not a maladjusted introvert. Maybe deep, deep down. Or, I dunno, maybe he’s troll bone deep and out the other side. Whatever, on Twitter, I bet he uses rude words.
Time will tell, I guess. How many distasteful characters have revealed themselves -eventually- to be nice enough once we got to know ’em here at Hubriscomics? Most of ’em, I think.
‘Cept that Enis guy. Yikes.
Sometimes I think Durnell’s style is just to set up everyone to be either happy or cranky, and then steer them another way. At least, if you do this half the time or more, you keep people on their toes. I suppose that’s part of an Emcee’s job- keep folks guessing and listening close. Keep ’em holding their breath and waiting on the other shoe to drop so they can’t interrupt. Baffle them with Bull… You get the idea.
Like the title today?
You know the famous movie ‘The Thing”? Any of them, the old one with James Arness, John Carpenter’s version, or the more recent one- they’re all based on an old short story called “Who Goes There?”
After you read that story and then see the way it was handled in the 50’s version of the film, you wonder what the hell Hollywood was thinking… or why they were incapable of thinking.
On the other hand, that movie did really well, so what do I know?
I like the color on this one.
Other than the color, the cartoon didn’t take long to imagine, to write, or to draw.
The first two panels didn’t take long to color, either.
Then you get to that last panel, and then ya gotta put in the time.
Hindsight, blindsight… Blind Blonde, Blind Optimism…
YOU guys oughta try naming these things. Some days, nothin’. Some days, you get a choice. If I was smarter… or dumber… I’d work farther ahead and be naming these things in the mornings when my brain works better. On the other hand, I’d spend more time on them, and who knows what else I should be doing with THAT time? Somebody’s logo? Another cartoon map? Laundry?
