Why not just post it up on the main page? I know a lot of people probably don’t read down to the newsposts anyway. Actually, I’m thinking about putting Little Trees on its own page, and devoting the main page just to the newsposts and links.
It’s still going to be a while on that new Little Trees page, so here’s a comic that I don’t think I’ve put online before. I did it for the Fluke anthology back in January. Fluke is a minicomics and zine festival held every year in Athens, GA. It’s pretty awesome. I just wish they’d get a website for it up.
I’m getting email bounces from a couple people who’ve signed up for the update list, so if you are Stumblebum, Sidney Lingle, Mr. Cracker, or Hope Larson, you might want to check your email settings. Also, if you signed up for the update list, and haven’t gotten any updates, check your spam filters – they might not be getting through.
A new “Pup” strip today at Serializer, for your edification and amusement.
The new Little Trees page probably won’t be up until next week. The mad crunch on that SPX anthology submission took up most of my drawing time this week! Another thing I’m working on is getting that complete Journal Comic collection together. It’s taking so long because I’m putting a bunch of extra stuff into it. This also involves finishing up a bunch of strips from back in the day, that I got half-way through before abandoning them (due to lack of time.) I’ll post up the cover in a bit.
Ryan “Peq” asked me nicely to link to his site, so there you go, Ryan. Don’t say I never gave you anything.
So I bought some “King Vitaman” cereal the other day, and the box had some half-hearted riddles on the side, as such cereals are wont to have. “What runs around King Vitaman’s castle? Mice! Which of King Vitaman’s knights weighs 300 pounds? Sir Lunchalot!” But then there’s this one: “What’s the king’s favorite cereal? King Vitaman!” Well, jeez. You weren’t even trying with that one. If someone’s reading those riddles, they’ve already bought the cereal. You’re not going to convince them to buy more with a lame “riddle.” Asides from that, the cereal was inoffensive.
Eleanor gets back from Arizona in less than two days!
Well, I got my submission for the SPX Anthology done – a day early, even. Four pages in three days… Thus I’ve successfully proved to myself that I could indeed draw a monthly comic, if for some reason I wanted to. That was some pretty intense drawing, though… I was holding a Rapidograph in such a death grip that the little dent on the side of the tip of my middle finger was aching… You know, that part where you rest the pen when you’re writing or something?
Anyway, we’ll see if the anthology accepts or rejects this bad boy. If they don’t want it, I’ll post it up here. Even if they do, I’ll probably end up posting it eventually, but probably long after the book comes out.
In other news, you should check out this website – it has dozens of music videos of the persuasion MTV used to dub “Breakthrough.” Makes me feel like a sucker for buying those Michel Gondry and Chris Cunningham collections…
