Happy March! Spring is on the way. And Daylight Savings Time. And allergy season.
Don’t you love this time of year. Once we get a little past this part, then it’s tax season, with all its festivities.
Ohhhh, I just depressed myself.

Better late than never, right?
Sorry for the delay, but here’s the cartoon that sat half-finished while I went and had family time.
I was a pall bearer for my grandmother. She was 93. And thanks for all the well wishes about her. The best thing I can say is that we’re sad, maybe, but not hurt. It was her time to go, after a fine life that meant a lot.
Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
When I was a kid, comic strips (and probably other forms of media) that had too many written words didn’t suit me. It wasn’t until one summer when, trapped at my father’s musical instrument shop all day, there was a treasury-sized edition of Doonesbury cartoons. I had seen it before and was daunted. It was daunting, but it was the only cartoon stuff available that day, everything else with cartoon drawings, including some Ernie Ball sales material, had been studied to death. I dived into the book, and came away with a new appreciation for verbose cartoons.
And I hope you guys have the same appreciation, because I’m starting to see that the storytelling technique I’m trying to use is going to spin out some sizable word balloons.
Also, My grandmother passed away, so the uploading of cartoons might get wonky this week. Sorry ’bout that.
How long has it been since I dropped a talkative new character into the strip?
I hope it’s been long enough. We needed a storyteller.
Aaaand for anyone who became an official Patron of Hubris (you become one by clicking the gray and orange ‘Team Hubris’ button to the left over there, and doing patron-y things) during the month of January, the physical rewards have all been mailed. To the one Patron in France- it might take a bit for it to arrive. For the two Patrons who get screen savers- if you’d like to email me and let me know if you need it for phone or desktop or iPad or whatever, (or even if you don’t) I will send those out this weekend. For those newer Patrons who signed up in February- your goodies will go out in March after Patreon sends me your info.
Thanks, folks!!

You know, it took a whole year to roll over this story arc. I think it got away from me a little…
And here we go into the next one.
You guys always seem to know the direction things are about to go… anyone wanna guess what’s about to happen and who’s going to be involved?
