so i had this idea (that i stole) because this blog seems to have plenty of rants and ravings, but seems to be missing the “occasional brilliance”, that i will try to do a weekly comic. i expect it will take me a couple weeks to get it up and running (i hate drawing myself), but once i do, i’ll try to do one a week. they will be funny (hopefully) day in the life kind of stuff. nothing revolutionary.
in the meantime, while i try to gear up for this little project, here are two “day in the life” type comicstrips (the kind i hope to steal from…um, i mean emulate) by a really talented arist named Les McClaine, a guy i went to college with. i doubt he even remembers me, as i was (and am) a bit of a hack as an artist, but he is truly talented. here’s his website, check him out if you get a chance.

Les’ site is good. You should check out http://www.DrewWeing.com. A fellow SCAD alum, he did a journal comic for years that was good. Anis’ play (which I directed) is featured in one of the strips.

i checked out Drew’s site as well and it’s great – the daily comics were equally as good as Les’ – perhaps next week i’ll feature a link to his website and a couple of his comics to get people prepared for my “weekly strip”. its going to be so hard to pull this off. its been so long since i’ve drawn on a consistent basis. i’m not half the cartoonist either of these guys are, but i still have no idea how they managed to do a daily strip. very impressive.
