Oh no! There’s another ugly animal in town! Someday I’ll come up with a cute character design, but it doesn’t look like today was that day…
Thanks to all of you who visited my sketch-o-rama during last Saturday’s Free Comic Book Day! Hope you’re enjoying your drawings and comics…
Looks like things are looking up for Watusi! Maybe the sour taste in his mouth will soon be a thing of the past …
Hey, don’t forget that Free Comic Book Day is coming up this Saturday! Once again Mike Sullivan (“There’s Something Happening in Crawford, KS”) and I have teamed up with a new issue of Free-for-All! to showcase our respective webcomics. I’ll be distributing copies at Lawrence’s Astrokitty Comics & More (15 E. 7th St., Lawrence, KS 66044), where I’ll be doing sketches from 2-5; Mike will be doing the same at Pop Culture Comix (9337 W. 87Th Street, Overland Park, KS, 66212). If you’re out and about, stop in and say hi, get some free comics, and maybe even a sketch. If you can’t make it, stop by www.smearysoapboxpress.com on May 4-5th for a free downloadable version …
[May 2022 UPDATE: .pdf versions of Free-for-All! #1 & 2 (still FREE) are available from my Gumroad store!]
Different strokes for different folks, I guess…
Guess what? I’ve finally got something new out in print! Keith O’Brien (of Teebo infamy) just released a pun-filled minicomic starring his katana-wielding detective Samurai Slate: “PUNctual, or, Time & PUNishment.” Puns are hard to write without wearing thin, but Keith pulls it off in these six pun-packed comics featuring four guest artists and a cover by Tom Cherry. Thanks for including me in the fun, Keith!
Thanks again to Matt Levin for playing along with the finale to this story … a story that outlasted not only the Small Press Syndicate’s “Carpal Tunnel Syndrome IV” crossover, but the SPS itself. And even though it took me much longer than I’d planned for it to take, it feels really good to finally get this story out of the way. There’s still a little production work to finish on the comic, but I hope to have it out in print soon … with more new issues to follow!
Next week in this space we return to the present and a talking dog named Watusi! Hope to see you then…
Look for more Walking Man in next week’s finale to W-Tusi25‘s adventure. Can’t wait till then? You can find more of Matt Levin’s rubber stamped comics (including Walking Man) any time on the Walking Man Comics Facebook page…
Is this destined to be W-Tusi25‘s new base of operations? Wonderopolis has never seemed so far away…
The good news is you’re not going to be stranded in time, W-Tusi25. The bad news… well, find out next week!
Watusi the Talking Dog
