    A Few Quick Notes

    Thursday, November 09, 2006 - 08:26 PM

    My last few posts have been pretty long-winded, so today’s will be a few, short bursts:

    1. It made me so nervous when Comics.com edited out my notice to Sheldon readers, telling them that the strip was moving. My huge fear was (and still is) that thousands of readers wouldn’t be able to find the strip in the move. But thanks to readers, bloggers, and other cartoonists, you’re helping get the word out that the strip has moved. Thank you for your help!
    2. The book sale ends Friday at midnight. So if you’ve been digging the strip, get the book today and save six smackers.
    3. Got a lot of e-mail regarding the TV show “Heroes” yesterday, so I thought this would be the perfect time to plug fellow Blank Label-cartoonist and three-time-arm-wrestling champ, Brad Guigar. Brad’s strip, Evil, Inc., chronicles a corporation run by and for super-villains, Cause You Can Do More Evil, If You Do It Legal™. It’s a great concept, whether or not you’re a comic book reader. Here’s a good storyline to start with.
    4. Another sci-fi, TV-related joke today? I know, I know…that’s two in a row. But Mr. Tivo and I have been getting acquainted in those rare, free moments. And unfortunately, Mr. Tivo has been recording a lot of great sci-fi lately.
    5. Mr. Tivo and I have a love-hate relationship.

    SHELDON: Yeah. Someone essentially stole the concept of X-Men and pitched it to a network.

    2 GRAMP: It's about these humans who are, well... mutated, I guess? And they all have super powers.
    SHELDON: X-Men.

    3 GRAMP: And they want to be heroes with their powers, but society might fear them... so they stay hidden.
    SHELDON: X-MEN!

    4 GRAMP: Wouldn't it be cool if one character could, like, wave his hand, and, like, lift a whole metal bus?
