This one was originally planned to run a few strips after one where Hubris gets his pants caught in his chainring http://hubriscomics.com/2011/03/14/hubris-chain-of-fools/
But somehow I got distracted by other stories, and here we are. This strip now stands on its own merits, instead of being a reminder of an older strip. What a brave little strip! Big hand, everyone!
How many times have you been on a trip… OFF the interstate… lately? The Quicky-Marts quickly turn into the Quirky-Marts the farther up into the hills you get. You may have to squint to find the parts of the store that you recognize, here, but take the time. For the Funny’s sake.
There are three or four starting places for reading Hubris comic strips. Today is one of them. The reason for it is sort of a happy one. When I first submitted Hubris to the syndicates, I got a little encouragement from Tribune syndicate (surprise, they’re no longer around) and ‘Because It’s There’, as Hubris was then to be called, was put on a sort of new talent showcase website they set up. Also, Amy Lago (then at United Media- soon to be no longer around, and now at Washington Post Writer’s Group) God bless her, asked for more Hubris strips. Because of the input from these two sources, Hubris got refined and refiddled a few times. I’ve cobbled together the bits from various packages into a sort of coherent series to introduce the characters and situations. From there, we’ll see what kind of trouble I can make. Anyway, today the characters begin to gel a little more together.
Anybody else remember a high school coach (Don’t call him ‘gym teacher’) like this?
