I was gonna run with “Waiting for Godot” series longer than just two strips, but honestly, it just never came together the way I wanted it to. Dare I say, the way I was waiting for it to… **** I mentioned the other day that a piece of art was lost/stolen during an art show […]

The sketch from whence this weeks’ strips sprung. Plus Jervis Johnson’s e-mail. Meaning I must have had this idea sometime during last Warpcon. I wonder how it would have differed if I’d written the series back then. Behind it you can see the sketch for one of the Guitar Hero strips I did a few […]

Since I’m terrible at keeping track of things, I’ve decided to try and come up with a basic list of all the games I’ve illustrated, or designed bits for, or whatever. Here’s what I’ve got so far: 10 Days in Africa10 Days in the USA10 Days in Asia10 Days In EuropeaBRIDGEdApples to Apples Party Box/CrateApples […]

Every now and then, when I do a comic strip like today’s, I’ll get a comment over on the Dork Tower LJ Syndicated Feed (5, 278 served) along the lines of “Hey, this is a @#$!! advertisement! I don’t want a @#$!! advertisement in my comics!” Just to make it clear: when I plug a […]

I began yesterday at 6 am London time (midnight, Central Standard Time), getting to Heathrow from Southwark, climbing aboard a Virgin Atlantic flight to Chicago, taking the World’s Most Depressing Bus from Chicago to Madison, popping quickly over to a friend’s house for the remnants of Memorial Day, and then getting to bed around midnight […]

For some reason, teh interwebs have slowed to a crawl here at Chez Muskrat. I’m getting about a fifth to a quarter of the speed I used to get just a week ago. This has been going on for a few days now. “High-Speed Access”? I fear not. It’s amazing how soul-piercingly annoying it seems, […]

May 12, 2008 An open letter to the U.S. House Subcommittee on the Courts, the Internet and Intellectual Property The Association of American Editorial Cartoonists (AAEC) and The National Cartoonists Society (NCS) are profoundly concerned with the current Orphan Works legislation now being considered by both houses of Congress. Our two groups are comprised of […]

Anybody have a Secret Power that could get me in a position to have a picture taken with Jemaine at Sunday’s Flight of the Conchords show in Milwaukee? It’s be a hoot. Plus, there’d be much Dork Tower goodness in it for you, if you can do it. Separated at birth. Well, birth plus ten […]

Guess where I’m off to, tonight? Yup. I’m so pleased that I got tickets at the last minute that I had to do a ‘toon about it. Every now and then, an idea for a cartoon will come along that maybe one out of ten readers will get. I think/hope I made this one at […]
