Remember a few years or a few minutes ago, depending on whose time you think comic strips happen in, when Hubris sat down to make the events weird? And Paste wandered in to make some suggestions that were pretty nuts, too?
Yeah, me neither.
You didn’t think I was gonna let Tackleboy quit it, didja?
Did you guys do this? You had to call “No Tag Backs” when the game started, otherwise, tag backs were allowed and complicated things for the slower-reflexed people in the group.
I don’t recall worrying a lot about tag backs, but I don’t want to admit that I was really fast at touching people and running away.
Welcome to October Country, where fallen leaves disguise things on the trails that will knock you right the heck off your unicycle.
I’m posting this cartoon early, ’cause I’m going to meet up with a bunch of cartoonists. One of them is John, whom I’m hoping will agree to come back in here and get me back on track with my Patreon updating and acting like I’m running a real thing here. Wish me luck. We’re also gonna draw for the kids at another children’s hospital. That’s always good fun. And I’m doing a talk about how to get yourself made a member of the National Cartoonists Society. If you wanna be a member, just ask me how. I’ll tell ya.
Some of you will be old enough to remember (at least in syndication?) seeing TV shows that add “IN COLOR” at the end of the title sequence. Typically, it’s stuff like ‘Bewitched’ or ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’ or some police shows that started off in black and white, but they wanted the viewing public to know that, by golly, if you’re watching in black and white, you’re missing out on a hot new thing they were offering the public.
When I first made a new file folder for this website and labeled it ‘Hubris’, I didn’t want to confuse it with the older folders that had ‘Because It’s There’ and ‘Hubris’ packages for the syndicates. So in a merry spirit and recalling those old syndicated TV shows that made sure you knew you were getting the best technology could offer, I named the folder ‘Hubris In Color’ even though the cartoons were still uncolored when I named the file. I planned to color them before I put them on the web- assuring myself that it’d make people enjoy them so much more than if I just stuck the plain ol’ comic strips on there.
It’s still the same folder I use, even though the folder and files inside it would have burst an old analog file folder long ago.
I’ve been meaning to mention it for the past eight years. Hubris… IN COLOR!
