Fun with voice balloons. One in a series. See here and here and here.

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving to everyone, and to those outside the U.S., happy Friday. :-)

  6. Genius, I think it would make a great little accordion book series. With some suitably Gothic title about The dangers of Speech, or It's only funny till someone loses an eye.

  14. I love to think about this type of thing in boring meetings - having text come out that would NEVER show up in real life.

    p.s. i really like what you've done with your header.

    i'm trying to think of something new to do with mine. i've had that same thing up for almost 2 years, now, and it's time for something colourful.

    yours has such...verve to it. i like its intensity.

  22. I think an adventure sketch I did a while back fits this very well.
