Whole Day Off, Part 24

...and so concludes my first 24-Hour Comic. Okay, not the spookiest ending for Halloween, but I didn't realize it was going to end today when I started posting it, and by the time I was done drawing it I had trouble remembering my first name. I promise the next one will be nothing but torture porn.

Click the "Whole Day Off" link below if you want to see all the installments. Happy Halloween.

Whole Day Off, Part 23

The previous night Dahlia had dreamt that she was April O'Neil and her teeth were falling out and a leprechaun was making the teeth into a necklace. She remembered that dream.

Whole Day Off, Part 22

Suckas and fools all get dispatched in due time. This is the moral of our story.

Whole Day Off, Part 21

They've gone and done it now.

Whole Day Off, Part 20

Dahlia can no more escape her situation than Mike Myers can escape his contract for Shreks IV-VII...

Dahlia suppresses whatever political compunctions she may have when she recalls that she's in a special situation.

Dahlia is mildly disappointed with her own subconscious.

Hmmmm?

Whole Day Off, Part 8

Time to listen to some Cyndi Lauper and do some psychoanalysis.

Whole Day Off, Part 7

Sometimes Dahlia plays that game where she has to unlock the door before the imaginary serial killer can get her. This is not one of those days.

Hey all. Remember me? I'm your dad. I guess your mom hasn't told you about me. Well, I used to have a blog around here that I would update sometimes, and...aw hell. I'm no good at this. Look kid, here's a jam comic that the 7000 B.C. comics group (including Joe and I) made last Sunday during our meeting. Enjoy. It's a cute little Ottie story in PDF format (not my idea) that we all took turns speed-drawing while eating pizza and chatting. Any complaints about continuity or art quality should be directed to my new talent agent, Chris.
