Just because I'm gonna smash Julio's face in with a tire iron doesn't mean people can't stick around afterwards and still have a good time

Don't worry, internet, I'm still alive!
I'm currently beavering away on a project for someone other than myself so shan't plaster screen grabs of it until they deem it ready for the world.  That's my current excuse for not blogging daily, anyway...

Stop being meta. Stop taking everything we do and shoving it up its own ass.

There will be several major catastrophes - a testament to my genius!

Pulling together is the aim of despotism and tyranny. Free men pull in all kinds of directions.

Check the method from Bedrock, cause I rock ya head to bed just like rockin what? Twin glocks.

So this is why everyone recommends having pages 'in the bank' before embarking on any webcomic publishing schedule - so illness like what I have at the moment doesn't get in the way of a regular update.

I originally 'coloured' this page with halftone dots, but changed it to old-school UK comic half-colour on top of that because I liked the look of Jimmy Corcoran's Kid Tiger webstrip, and this page being a flashback, an old-school vibe kind of works for it. I'll probably not use the effect for all the flashbacks in the strip, as there's a couple of deliberate art homages in flashbacks planned for down the line that may be humourous should the idea of seeing a man fail to draw like Joe Kubert and Carlos Ezquerra appeal to you. And why would it not?

I'm just glad my clown training prepared me to take a fall like that
