An Awesome Comic-Con Sketch! (Not Really.)

On my road trip to San Diego, I ended up in a doctor's office, in Oklahoma City. (I'm fine. Thank you for your moment of curiosity.) The doctor explained things to me as he drew on the rolling paper that covers the examination table. I asked if I could keep it. He said, "Sure," as he graciously torn it out and signed it. It's pretty big. 10.5" x 10.5".

The story gets more complex. I didn't make it to San Diego, but it doesn't end sadly. I ended up having a great vacation in the Palo Duro Canyon, Texas, and the Rocky Mountains, Colorado! Here's a couple of pictures from it...

The Cookie Monster Diet

Have you ever noticed that when Cookie Monster eats, very little food gets into his mouth?

This would be a great approach for a new diet! Super models could start eating like the C. Monster to keep their svelte figures!

I'm hoping this starts a fad.

A New Facebook Group!

A gentleman from France, Jean-François Virey, has created a Halo and Sprocket Group on Facebook. I think I'll go join right after I post this...

I have stupid dreams.

Last night I dreamt of a new TV show. It was a spin-off from two, old sit coms. It starred the goofy farmhand from Green Acres and the "kiss my grits" waitress from Alice. The show was titled Eb & Flo. (Of course.)

Not only is "ebb and flow" a phrase I rarely use, but if you were to ask me the names of these characters during my waking hours, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to think of them.

What a great use of my subconscious mind.

A Totally Uncalled For Aquaman Joke

It's just a joke, Matt.

As you may know, the radioactive isotope that blinded Daredevil also gave him other heightened abilities. I found a segment, in Daredevil #167, that talks about his "hyper-senses". (Though I'm not sure how anyone can taste a number.)

Have you ever wondered if his super hypersensitivity extends to his temperament? I like to think it would...

Fair Fairy Fight

I found an old, unpublished pin-up I had mostly forgotten about. Several years ago, I had sat at a con by Christopher Rich-McKelvey, who was currently doing a self-published comic called Footman 15. It was a bit of a cheesecake book, starring a lady who worked for the government(?) and went around destroying evidence of mythical creatures. She was always shooting up fairies. I wanted to draw something that looked as though the fairies had a fighting chance (sort of). Chris stopped doing the book before it saw print. That makes it perfect blog fodder..
