I have tried those candied crabs and they were almost as bad as actually having crabs (I assume). Double Yuck.
anyway -I love your comic.

J,
Ya know why this comic/sketch is important? ‘Cuz you’re rendering real stuff that is very specific in terms of shape and line. The button maker and stapler are spot on and the little detail with the clear tape is clever. It works quite well to convey we be lookin’ at TAPE!
The banner shadows are also very nice.
“Candied Crabs”? Are you serious? Gack!

Hey, awesome. I’ve wanted to make my own comic for a while. So, what am I suppossed to draw now?
February 3rd, 2007 at 3:52 pm
Just discovered your wonderful comic. I shall follow it from now on (unless i am forced to do something productive or my computer dies.) One question about this strip tho, surely to make a comic you also need a pen and paper?

it’s true. your drawing is becoming so strong. keep it up!

how much did the button maker cost?
February 3rd, 2007 at 11:22 pm
thanks kids, for the compliments & pointing out the things I missed…I didn’t draw paper & pens cause they were boring things to draw. And yes, candied crabs are a real thing, glazed & sesamed. they’re fucking disgusting. but hilarious! and the button maker costs, lets say, about the same as an ipod. which is ridiculous but totally worth it. not for profit, but for wasting saturday nights when you want an excuse not to go out.

I listen to “Wait…Wait Don’t Tell Me…” while working on comics, too!

Holy Fuck! Not to second and third what everyone else already so aptly pointed out, but lookit your button maker! If I knew all artsy faggy lingo I would call you an “excellent draftsman.” But I don’t and anyway, I hate giving you compliments. You’re a tramp.
I’m gonna make my very own mini comic to pay homage to this wonderful drawing and send it to you, but it is for your trampy eyes ONLY!!
And I swear to God (freddy), if you show anyone or publish any part of it anywhere I will break off the handle of that button maker and fuck you blind with it.

Bonnie- Sorry about giving you crabs. But that night of love was TOTALLY worth it.

Gees, blowelle, I had to turn the music on so they would’nt hear me laugh…
btw, Julia, how do you print the buttons in the first place? aren’t they made of metal or something?
February 4th, 2007 at 8:06 pm
I don’t know why, but I bought those candied crabs once. I liked them as long as I didn’t look at them. It was hard to take the accusing look on their faces. Also, at the price I paid, I was going to it all, damn it!

Great comic. One thing, though…
I hate Kinko’s as much as the next guy, but isn’t it crazy expensive making all of your comics using your own paper and your printer toner?
God, I wish I had a button maker.

I am traveling again, sitting in a hotel lobby in Philadelphia, far from the warm California shore at San Clemente. It’s colder than a well digger’s destination and I have things to do before my big deal meeting tomorrow. Instead of actually working, I go to my happy place and laugh at Jo and Julia’s love fest.
It probably helped that I had a martini the size of a fish tank, too.
BTW: Did you ever replace the dead iPod?
Jo, it looks like I very well might be in your neck of the woods before the end of the year. Business stuff. I’ll let you know. Looking forward to rubbing Freddy’s belly.
Julia, Susan and I still want to take you out to dinner in the next few months. We’ve got junk to do in the city and I still need to check out the new DeYoung location.
Time for another martini, waiter.

OH MY GOD, Terry, really???? Ooo, ooo, I’ll have to email you privately and get all the details! I’m so excited! I hope you don’t mind resting your head on tumble weed pillows of dog hair and kitty fluff. I’ll make you and Susan a scrumptious feast and ply you both with inordinate amounts of liquor!
PLEASE call and spend a night in my humble dump if your travels see you in (or near) RI.
I fucking LOVE you and can’t wait to meet you in the actual flesh!

i want a clubfoot button!
February 5th, 2007 at 7:39 pm
Holy shit, girl, you can draw! Don’t let nobody tell you otherwise. But seriously that is the best rendering of a longarmed stapler I’ve ever seen.
February 9th, 2007 at 8:36 pm
Thanks for the tips!
