I’m running a little behind with the printing and mailing part of the print sale. I should have everything done by Thursday/Friday. I’ll keep you updated.

And Brian is dumb.

So, I’m driving home from the store Friday evening waiting to make a right turn into traffic. A car passes in front of me, slowly, because it’s coming up on a stop light. There’s a kid in the backseat, maybe six or eight or something. I don’t know, they all look the same to me at that range. Anyway, his window is half down and he sticks out a N-Strike Maverick and pretends to shoot at me with it. It’s not hard to imagine that he’s done this to every car they’ve passed for their whole trip.

A range of reactions unfold before me. But, really, there’s only one option. I pull out my N-Strike Maverick and pretend to shoot him back. I’m pretty sure that was the most amazing moment of his life.

What, you don’t have Nerf guns in your car?

It’s this weekend. I’ll be there off and on, probably hanging around the A Comic Shop folks. The guest list is kind of amazing. If you’re nerdy enough to be reading this website, and anywhere near the O-Town area, you should really be there.

So, every time we finish a Warbot in Accounting comic, I ask myself “Why would I write that?” I’m sure it’s the same for Zack, only replace “write” with “draw” and sprinkle it with a dash of absolution. I mean, he’s only following orders. I’ve read about 1/3rd of a comprehensive history of the 20th century, but so far it looks like there’s no reason to believe that’s not a free pass on wrong-doing.

But, really, why do I write that? There’s no secret darkness to my childhood. My parents are great people who are incredibly loving and supporting. My adult life has been spent falling ass-backwards into success, so, y’know, no complaints there either.

But then this morning I got a call from my mom.

“Hey, mom. What’s up?”

“Oh, I was reading your Warbot. It’s not sad enough.”

“Uh, no?”

“At the end, the city should have billed him for the damage to the street.”

“Damn. You’re right.”

So, that’s why.

So the sale was a success. I’m looking around for a cheap printer now so I can get you guys your prints while being as greedy as possible with the money I’ve made.

As for other news, the webseries Brian and I are working on is going great. Although it’s live action, I can’t resist drawing things for it. I really can’t wait to get this one off the ground. It’s going to be pretty epic. If you’d like to help in any way; maybe with the budget, or being on set as an extra (in LA obviously), or whatever, feel free to contact me. I’ll be talking more about the show itself very, very soon.

And if you haven’t noticed already, Warbot in Accounting has been updated. I was told this was the worst one we’ve done. If you think that this is the worst, you haven’t seen anything yet.
