The Return of Stickman #837
I bet you're thinking that I'm going to start another theme. Maybe a beer theme? Well, maybe. Naw! I will save that for later.

Have you ever tried Limburger? I didn't really find it that smelly. Of course, I was at a cheese fair.

The Return of Stickman #832
Some of us fear that stuff like this actually happens. Some of us know that stuff like this does happen. In fact, this did happen.

The Comic Critic Reviews Teenage Zombies and The Return of Stickman #831
For the most part, I find watching old black-and-white horror movies a wonderful experience. In my search to discover forgotten buried treasure, I sometimes unearth something that was better off six feet under. Teenage Zombies was sheer torture to watch. Poor background, terrible scene blocking, makeshift sets, and bad acting I can handle, but add to the mix unnecessary, excruciatingly long footage during which absolutely nothing occurs was a nearly unbearable ordeal. Teenage Zombie might last only 71 minutes, but it will feel like an eternity. Run Away. Run!

The Return of Stickman #827
This strip is dedicated to my good friend Lisa Shaftel who has several pet turtles. I myself had turtles as pets. They are a lot more fun than folk think. Really.

The Comic Critic Reviews The Butterfly and The Return of Stickman #822
The Butterfly is a family-friendly movie that I can get behind. This is not one of those “nanny” films I complain about so often. There’s a many-layered story going on here, well written, keeping both the child viewer engaged and the adult viewer intrigued. The comfort of plot predictability is only vaguely in your mind, as there are enough gentle twists and turns to create doubt. Will this film follow a conventional story line? The only drawback about showing this to your kids is that it’s a French film and a possibility that your copy might not be dubbed, thus forcing your children to read subtitles. I say, “Start them while they’re young.”

The Return of Stickman #821
My inspiration for this strip came when I saw Kevin Boze at Bumbershoot. He didn’t have a henna tattoo, but he was sporting a temporary tattoo next to his eye which totally freaked me out and left me speechless.

Bumbershoot 2008
Every year I go to Bumbershoot and draw the bands and events while I watch them. This year my wife got us gold passes and we stayed for the full event. I was very busy and now I'm very tired.
The only thing I did not get in this year was the drawing jam. I left a few doodles on there wall there.
