The comic will not be published this week...

..but I was asked to do the illustrations for the Best Of Springfield edition, so I'll still be getting some love on the printed page. That's the reason I wasn't out at all this weekend. I had a few Labatt Bloos and a few Dewars n' waters while I worked like a frenzied maniac, but for the most part I was resolved to being chained in front of my drafting board and computer all weekend long.

Cool thing is, the illustrations are tight, considering I had such a fast turnaround on them.


Opening the entire best of section, this is as per the staff's request. I swear, it wasn't my idea to put a lumberjack in drag on the pages... But the other one is my concept for a nightlife section.

There are a few more that will be put in the pages, but since they would give away a few of the winners of the categories, I will hold off on putting them up. Well, that, and the fact that these are the two I like the most.

Wednesday is my last day training people at the gym. Whoot... I think I'll take advantage of my new free time and go play some ice hockey Thursday afternoon. My belly's growing from all of the inactivity I've had lately.

How was everyone else's weekend? Anybody else going to the Card v cub game next weekend? Booyah, bitches.

Jager Jeff - I'm sooo interested in some bleacher seats. Seeing as I live in Chicago now, that would be sweet. Let me know if its a possibility. chrissyb81@msn.com

Stern - Great job on the illustrations. What night are you going to the game? Who is all going and are you going out that night, before the game, etc? Keep me posted.

You gym comic was up on the wall at my fattie meeting.

I don't know if that's good or bad -- but I guess it means that someone liked it! ;)

K- Thanks for the compliment, man. I wasn't really trying for any specific bar...just wanted to integrate a few diff aspects of the bar/club scene into the pic, and that bartop was an easy out. And yeah, I've been the guy with bulging....eyes...too.

blake- your father is kiinda creepin me out here

MM- thanks for your compliment too! I am going to the game with my friends Mike, Dean and Teddy. Also, cool to hear that my comic is being read by people outside of my direct connections. Very cool.

Chrissy- Sunday afternoon game. Thanks for the compliment, too.

Jeff-when I decipher your comment, I'll try to answer it. However, if you just called me "shoo", we have some issues that need resolution.

I'm still waiting to hear what size skates you'll need for tomorrow.
