Think, Watusi, think! It’s time to be more ingenious than you ever have before!
Thanks to everybody who visited during my signing at Astrokitty Comics @ Game Nut last weekend. If you couldn’t make it then, stop in the store anyway; not only can you find the latest Watusi comics, but also a great selection of titles for all readers!
If anything is going to be able rectify Watusi’s situation, let’s hope it’s here!
“What have I done?!?” Looks like you’ve put paw in mouth again, Watusi– and to the last dog who could listen to you, too!
If you’re in Midtown Memphis next Saturday (Sept. 10th), stop by my table at the Mid-South Book Festival and say “hi”– I’ll have brand new Watusi issues, as well as some nifty new prints as part of my “Watusi and the Emerald Serpent” promotional tour! Can’t make it next weekend, don’t worry; more dates to come…
Uh oh– looks like there may be some fireworks ahead!
By the way, if you haven’t visited Watusi’s Facebook page or my Twitter feed lately, you can find a recent update on the progress of my “Emerald Serpent” project there.
I kinda regret giving away the mystery of Moore Castle like that … looks like it could have been a fun story!
(* and if you don’t feel like digging out your Watusi back issues, you can find that scene here, too)
Ghost or not, Watusi (the talking one) has a rough road ahead if he’s going to return to corporeality. Hopefully Watusi (the Victorian one) is up to the challenge!
Okay, it looks like Watusi didn’t just pull a Tom Sawyer! He’s back, all right … just not all the way back!
More (obviously) to come…
And that brings this adventure of the Victorian Watusi to an end. I hope you’ve enjoyed reading this change of pace as much as I did writing and drawing it. I may well tell another story featuring the character at some point; I just need to figure out if it should be a sequel with Percy or I’d rather backtrack Flashman-style and feature his previous master…
But either way, next week it’s time to return to the present and see how Watusi’s friends in Wonder Valley are dealing with his passing…
