Starting tomorrow, we’re beginning something different with Monster Commute. Chapter Two: Kings of the Road What does this mean? It means that I’m going to focus more on a story. Primarily, I’m going to feel much less compelled to attempt “gag-a-day” strips. While these probably make it easier to get into MonCom, it’s brutally difficult [...]
A year has passed for our friends who yet find themselves in traffic. I thought that this piece, in particular, was a good way to mark a change for the strip. Obviously, it implies a couple of different things… which I’ll leave up to you. I wish that I could afford to spend this much [...]
It starts our innocently enough at first… Are you the kind of person who pushes the gas tank to empty? Or do you get down to a quarter of a tank, and then fill up right away to keep it full? Me, I like to push it. My wife, she likes to fill it up, [...]
ONI ONI Mart is a vast, far reaching gas station and mini-mart network. It has systematically destroyed every competitor, and has an agreement with Clown Bite Inc. that they won’t sell hot food, and Clown Bite won’t sell coal. One can find an ONI ONI Mart on just about every street corner and exit of [...]
I’m a sucker for propaganda posters, and I always will be. So, did you notice MY poster? Yeah, I kind of figured that you did. Hey, in celebration of our new story, I figured that it might be cool to offer you a free downloadable Lincolnstein poster to decorate your own cubicle/wall/locker/cafe/door/mailbox/cow. It’s a little [...]
Don’t you just love rude shopkeepers? I worked retail for a couple of long years, at the now defunct “Home Base” home improvement chain. I worked in the “paint” department, which means that I covered: Paint, decor, tile, carpet, and seasonal. Basically, one entire quarter of the store. Most of the time, I worked alone [...]
I’m currently at WonderCon, hopefully behind a barrage of people attempting to purchase our fine wares. Since I moderate comments by hand, you won’t be able to see your comments for a little while. However, I do hope that today’s strip gives you some interest in commenting, and as always, your comments are welcome. Also, [...]
If all goes well, I should be making my way back home again from WonderCon. Ahead of time, I should also be thanking you for your support, and for hosting us in the city of San Francisco. If you followed one of our fliers, thanks for visiting! If you’re a new reader, you can start [...]
Hey, at least Mr. Oni is a go-getter, right? We’re back home (late) after a flippin fantastic trip to San Francisco. We had a great show, and we got to hang out with our friends Tim and Nan Hockin, of Nanimation quite a lot. I also got to meet a lot of you in person [...]

“When thirst for drink – Not blood. MUZZ!” – Troll cardboard broadsides MUZZ is a carbonated, alcoholic soda, produced by MUZZ Corp Inc. It is both loved and desired by children, thanks to an effective advertising campaign on radio TJZZ, Dark Rain. Last July, there was more advertising for MUZZ then there was programming on [...]
When I was a kid, I’d spend my summers at my grandparents house, in Memphis, Tennessee. It was the 70′s, and a pretty cool time to be on my own in a foreign land. Everywhere I went, I was accused of having a “funny accent” and when I told people my name was “Dan” they’d [...]
Kids don’t have much taste. It’s not really their fault, but they generally want the junkiest crap that’s out there. Since they have little perspective to what’s “good” and what’s “cruddy”, they end up buying junk. We see it all of the time at the Conventions, and I guess who am I to judge. But [...]
Hey, there is even a story about the posters themselves. Lookit that. One of my favorite strips so far. You can download your own free Lincolnstein poster. (It’s a pdf) Or, if you’d like to own a super-nice 12×18 one, you can buy it here. I SEE YOU. Do you like these free downloads? Have [...]
Like many teenagers, I had a bunch of posters on my walls. Well, not too many, as well… we didn’t have a lot of money for such things. However, I had good friends, and they usually kept me in posters. The last ones that I remember were the following: – A Judas Priest poster featuring [...]
