She likes to think she’s as slick as her Mama.

So, STAPLE was an absolute blast. I’d like to thank every single one of you who came out and said “Hey” to the Mangler. I really felt horrible that I didn’t bring any books along with me, but folks still showed plenty of support. I got to STAPLE a little too close to opening time, thanks to my keen sense of timing./sarcasm. My table mates were some awesome folks, The Brenners. Angelica Brenner had some really amazing talent!

After a slow start, the crowd finally started to pour in around 1pm. The ever bubbly Leah Ada Franco decided to grace our table for a good deal of the day and brought her awesome humor to play. I STILL haven’t gotten a drawing from her! I did get to draw a few commissions and I moved some of the new shirts out the door, too! I got to touch base with Andy Runton a bit and my kids drew some pictures of Owly for him after they’d discovered his table. They really loved Owly. When the kids began to get restless, we decided that it was time to boogy on home. Again, thanks for all the Mangled love and I look forward to seeing folks in Dallas at DWEX!

STAPLE prep has rewarded us with a new shirt for the Mangled pantheon! Arm yourselves, my minions! Arm yourselves with the proof that you, too, are under NO man’s rule! Ladies! This shirt is for your husbands, even if they don’t read this comic. Wear it proudly, my minions! Unless your wife tells you to remove it. We respect da missus.

Gearing up for STAPLE! always seems to really muck with my posting schedule. You’ll be pleased to know that I’m debuting a new shirt at STAPLE! and will be on hand to draw for your entertainment! If you’re in town this Saturday, be sure to swing by the Monarch Event Center and hit booth 21A. I’ll also have some books from 4 Winds Fantasy Gaming, who’s been sampling my artistic talents for their various projects. You get to see them first hand at my table. See ya there!

” I love them all equally.” That’s what I’m supposed to say, isn’t it?

fixed the dialogue in this one.

On an especially cold day, I can’t even stand them myself!

It’s good italian food. It really would be a shame to waist it.

great italian buffet = Cannoli Joe’s.

My eldest boy found the joy of Invader Zim and fell completely head over heals. He really blew me away when he started drawing Zim and Gir. I present exibit A. The above drawing was done by my 8 year old. Really, I couldn’t be prouder at this point. I don’t remember drawing so well at his age. I have a little cartoonist in the making on my hands. ^_^
