I was tired when I drew those, but I'll step my game up for the July 4th weekend.

And I tried out those markers from that strip the other day...

The markers, by the way, are awesome. They're these Prismacolor Premiers things. Expect color strips in the future when I find a skin tone that doesn't make me look like I'm sunburned.

ALSO:

That strip I ditched on 6-26? Let's just say it involved a Pokemon reference.

Basically, what I've discovered is that when I say something funny in real life, it will not play as a strip. I had to do a second strip two days in a row for that very reason. Lesson learned.

Pretty boring day but I decided against going with the classic "me-falling-asleep" cop out.

i drew us driving on the wrong side of the road...i'll get around to changing that some time.

also, is anyone else getting redirected to some random ad when you try to look at your friends page?

Mistaken for a girl and an eighth grader in the same week. It's rough.

Anyway, this was drawn in beautiful Battery Park. Next update will be Sunday because I will be out of town. I can guarantee there will be another Taco bell strip debuting then.

But really, who cares about that when there's a...WEEZY BLOG!!



I would now like to use that same history book metaphor for everyone who bought my books at MoCCA. Thanks guys!

Turns out eating Japanese food is SO TOUGH, you guys. I got sushi on the regular at school, but I usually took it back to my dorm and ate it with my fingers. But in public, I had to keep it classy, and I choked. I got the hang of it eventually, but it took an embarrassing amount of time to find my footing.

Also, have you ever googled my name? It's so much fun!

I found the wikipedia page for the Indie Spinner Rack podcast where I did an interview back in the day, and they have my name, which links nowhere, but also my book, which links to this album.

Can we do anything to fix all that? Or will they delete me because wikipedia hates cartoonists?

Sorry I didn't post yesterday--we lost power. Now the electricity's back but the AC is broken. It's hot, man.

Also, that dude in the second strip might have had glasses now that I think about it.

MoCCA, you guys, wow. Best show I’ve been to by far. Sold more books this year than I did in 06 & 07 combined and traded a ton as well. Did some sketches, including some penguins, Superman playing a guitar, and a frustrated robot. Ate Twizzler after delicious Twizzler. Talked a ton of fun people...

( including... )

But here's what's really important: TOMORROW IS MOCCA. I'll be at table A64. In case you need a recap, I will have 8 books, free sketches, buttons, and no fish breath. Here's something new: I WILL HAVE CANDY. And not just the eye candy you were expecting. Like, actual mouth candy. I won't reveal what kind it is, but I will reveal that it is delicious.

Also, in case you are overwhelmed tomorrow, here's a map with a suggested plan of action:



See you tomorrow, everybody!

Mamma slamma jamma.

Also, Alec Longstreth wrote a novel length rebuttal to my strip from Tuesday. Well, maybe it wasn't directed at me, but whatever. We can pretend.
