I’m trying to get back to three strips a week. While I’m still pushed for time, I’ve been really unhappy with the flow of the strip while I pulled it back to twice a week (even if that was only intended as a temporary thing during Louisa’s first year). We’ll see. In some bad news, […]
Just in case anyone’s interested, here’s my iTunes Glam playlist. It’s been getting me through the last couple of days’ worth of work. Most of the tracks are from a double CD I picked up in London, “The Best Glam Rock Album In The World…Ever.” It was pretty solid, but I added some extra Bowie, […]
With the death of Ed McMahon, a few – A FEW – editorial cartoonists across the country are already sharpening their pencils, ready essentially for a day off. As we all know from such cartoonists, All Celebrities Go To Heaven. So, hey, why even come up with a PUNCHLINE? Here are four ready-to-use Obit ideas […]
SPECIAL FRIDAY DORK TOWERS – THREE (count ’em) THREE gags, plus a Make-Your-Own! Tell your pals!
OK…so I had this cartoon idea that I didn’t think would keep ’til Monday…so I drew it up quickly this afternoon, and here it is.
Then, thanks to some tweets that came in, I hit on another idea which could use almost the exact same template.
Then a third…
I wasn’t comfortable holding any of these cartoons until next week, but I didn’t have time for three separate drawings. So, I hope this didn’t feel too MUCH like cheating. Without reusing the art, there’d be, at most, one ‘toon up here.
Then I thought: heck, why not just publish the TEMPLATE ITSELF on DorkTower.com, so that you, too, could grab it and create an obscure Dork Tower cartoon, to run on Fridays, when nobody’s around to see ’em!
Seriously, yes, if someone sends in something good, I may run it here. Unless it’s far superior to what runs here most of the time (which is altogether too likely). In which case I’ll just crawl into a darkened corner and whimper. Or, as the psychologists put it, “be a cartoonist”).
(By the way – the Iran cartoons are about as self-deprecating as they get. YES – my Twitter Avatar is now green. YES, I feel about as empty and useless as ya get because that’s all I’ve done so far. And YES, I did get such an Twitter calling for an e-mail campaign. My first thoughts, indeed, went to Farscape and Firefly…)
