Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to my good friend and colleague, J. P. Trostle.
Or “Jape,” as he’s better known.
Jape is the brilliant mind behind the Alternate Universe Dork Tower, Dork Mirror, that’s up at DorkTower.com.
In case you missed any episodes (they’ve been running every weekday since April Fool’s day — only one person caught on that the April 1st strip wasn’t mine), you can find them by clicking below:
Friday’s Strip
Monday’s Strip
Tuesday’s Strip
Today’s Strip
Of course, you LiveJournallistas can subscribe to the Dork Tower LiveJournal Feed HERE.
(By the way: did you know there was also a Dork Tower LiveJournal Community/Fan Club thingie? I didn’t. Thank you, LJ search functions!)
Anyhoo, Jape is the editorial cartoonist for Durham, North Carolina’s Sun He’s also a very active member in the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists, and edits the Association newsletter. His own kick-ass web site is HERE. Youy HAVE to check out his homemade Rollerball Game, for example. And his ‘toons rawk, too.
Oh, yes – and he also edited and did all the graphic design for this little book called “Attack of the Political Cartoonists,” for some half-baked publisher last year. Grin.
You can find selections from the “Attack” collection HERE.
You can BUY a copy of the collection HERE for about ten bucks.
I’m just sayin’, is all.
Anyhoo, on top of all that, Jape is a World-Class Dork (argue Star Trek vs. Battlestar Galactica with him sometime) and a Gamer, and is completely and utterly qualified to take over the reins of Dork Tower for April Fool’s Week.
Drop him a note if you get a chance.
John
