Midnight Sun – Characters (yet again)

Some jackass hacked my site over the weekend, so I’ve gotta repost these character designs since I lost the original posts as a result. Am I mad about being hacked? Nah…. I posted this stuff originally on Friday and noticed I’d been hacked on Sunday morning; if some pathetic soul has nothing better to do with his or her weekend than hack some nobody’s blog, then I’m glad I provided them with some weekend entertainment. So, anyway, here’re the charcter designs prevously posted:

Dog Days of Summer

Here, the worthless hound Sheila occupies the landing on the stairs, a curiously cool spot in the crackhouse.

Bill Mauldin book to mark end of World War II

Bill Mauldin book to mark end of World War II

I’m excited to see that Bill Maudlin’s WWII cartoons are going to be collected. It seems like just about every few weeks the art house comics publishers like Fantagraphics announce some new collection of this sort, but Maudlin’s work has until now been neglected.

It’s MINE…MINE, I tell’s ya!

Although our last scheduled car payment wasn’t until November, Katherine and I went ahead and paid off the remainder of our car loan last week….making our lovely 2002 Subaru WRX offically ours! This will offically be the first non-crappy car I’ve owned pretty much ever. (I did at one point have an ’85 Toyota LandCruiser that was dear to my heart, but it had almost 100K on it by the time I bought it.)
