OK, so I thought I had these two weeks taken care of, content-wise. I traveled a lot this holiday season and made sure I would be home for a few days before the 1st so I could rustle up some content for the last three days of my vacation. What I didn’t count on was being so wiped out. I’ve barely emailed or called anybody since I got home, so I haven’t arranged any guests for the last three days. *Shrug* so I guess you’ll all have to put up with some quick doodles from yours truly! See ya on the 5th!
SayerSong (from the boards) read about my predicament of running out of art and offered this little number! Thanks SayerSong! This’ll give me some extra breathing room because I am back as of tomorrow! As a side note I believe any violence done unto Kiki would be because of uttering the phrase “my bad” as the bottle of 151 rum appears to be one of those little airplane bottles. But that’s just my theory.

So I was at a relative’s house for thanksgiving keeping oven-watch over the turkey while sketching. One of my nieces watching a show called “School Rumble.” I have no idea what the anime was about but the 30 seconds of the episode I saw seemed to be composed of vapid girls in bathing suits at the beach and brainless guys staring at them and fainting. Anywho it inspired me to do today’s sketch of Zoë and Gwynn, and seemed a fitting cap to the week of Sam’s return.

OK so I saw Watchmen today. And LOVED it! I’d advise this, though. Don’t see it until you read the graphic novel. Otherwise you’ll only like the movie half as much as you would and you’ll never be able to appreciate the masterpiece the graphic novel is. I actually only read it somewhat recently. Thanks Big Kev! ;)
I've decided to take over Sunday for Stuart and Lauren over at Chain Bear this week! As disturbing as this may be to watch *I* had to actually draw the thing!
This is technically only half the comic I intended for today, but my work-speed was grinding to a halt and I was burning out. So I apologize that this is only half the intended comic. I don’t think this is a good solution, only better than running a filler comic mid-fall.
On “Sami” and “Urch”: Congratulations to Samantha and “Person Known Only As Urchin!” Samantha won our Dragon*Con SBG Sluggy Cameo contest in 2007 and it's taken THIS LONG for me to figure out a glorious way to kill her off. Similar to Thalia and Clint, Samantha wanted to gift the cameo to her friend Urchin and I decided (with her permission) I'd cameo them both. Wait a minute! They're not dead yet! Maybe in a twist they'll survive! Tune in tomorrow to find out!
The original version of the strip had the fish in the last panel singing “Swimming, swimming, keep on swimming, keep on swimming…” But I thought even if you’ve SEEN “Finding Nemo” you still might not get it. And no, the fish is not a reoccurring sentient new character. If fact, if I wasn’t racing the clock (and losing), I might have cut the last panel completely. Anywho, congratulations again to our cameo winners, and happy Friday the 13th everybody!

OK I had to do one more. I could not resist. I got this one from Tormuse on the reactions forums. Sure each character might not be a perfect analogy for a watchman character but SamDaMan-dias just rolls off the tongue too perfectly. thanks Tormuse!

Stuart told me that this was "part of a tiered picture." I think Stuart is up to something! Although Torg and Riff are looking at you like YOU’RE up to something.

I noticed a few comments on the Reactions Forums about what type of gun Bun-bun is currently wielding. I would like to say, for the record, Bun-bun calls it a "Glock". Are you going to correct him? To his face?
I mistakenly gave Chain Bear the day off assuming I'd be changing my schedule drastically. So I drastically increased the color of one of Friday's panels myself!
This “American Bun-bun” sketch popped into my head having nothing to do with Bun-bun’s current fight with Oasis or the panel of the comic that preceded this. Sometimes timing just works out that way.

This crappy sketch art has nothing to do with the current story. Let me explain. “Oh Noes!” OK I screwed up. I didn’t get back to the guys of of Chain Bear in enough time to secure tonight’s art. Luckily I had filler art from the ‘Sometime in the Recent Past’ Week(s) story that I didn’t run. Some of you might remember that the Sunday of the first week arrived three hours late. I was so far behind I was going to run this sketch and suggest I’d do double duty later. (Doesn’t that take some of you old school Sluggites back? “Sunday on Monday and Two for Tuesday Catch-up?”) But I realized I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t run filler during filler. That would be like reinforcements calling in reinforcements. That's just silly. So anywho here you are!
I have to be really sharp on my scripts for the next part of the story, and I unfortunately suffered a mild case of Writers-Block/Burn-Out today. I’ll try to make up for this sketch by increasing the content and speed of the story next week.

times in Sluggy history, and by four separate characters?
Today's art was created many moons ago by the great Gene Ha, straight out of the strip from November 17th, 2008 (save for the "What Would Riff Do T-shirt), and used in the Emerald City Comic-Con 09 Charity Artbook (page 44). Gene sent me the original art which is framed proudly in my office. Thanks Gene!
