Does Anybody Remember Nerds Gum?

Funny thing is, days after I finished this comic, I found out my co-worker Allison loves Nerds. …The candy, not the people.

I Did a Guest Strip for Addanac City!

Just FYI, everybody, I did a guest strip for George Ford’s comic, “Addanc City,” and it’s up today! Head on over to the Addanac City website to check it out! I want to thank George for giving me the opportunity to do a guest comic for him. I enjoy reading Addanac City, and I enjoyed working on the guest strip!

And we have a winnah!

The winner of the first-ever monthly free George sketch drawing is none other than Bearman, from Bearman Toons. He wins a free sketch of the George character of his choice! There were 28 participants in the May drawing, and he used such a passionate mixture of emotion, power, stamina, and…um…flexibility that he was able to somehow will the random number generator to fall on him. Congratulations, Beartoons, and a great big thank-you to everybody who commented on comics last month.

If you want a chance to win a free George sketch of your own, it’s easy–all you have to do is comment on a comic or blog post, and you’ll be entered in to that month’s drawing. So come on, hop to it. All you have to do is write a little text, get past that sneaky CAPTCHA (no sense in a spambot winning a free sketch, is there?) and hit the submit button. Really, the only thing easier would be not doing it.

…Forget I said that last part.


Starting this month…FREE SKETCHES FOR ALL

Okay, I’m sorry, that title was just a catchy hook and it’s completely untrue. More like, “Free Sketch For One Lucky Person Each Month!” That’s right, starting this month, everyone who comments on a comic or blog post gets entered into a monthly drawing where the winner gets a free sketch of the George character of their choosing. I love seeing new comments on the site, and lately I feel that I’ve been getting enough of them to start a monthly drawing like this. Just to be clear, you only have to comment once to get entered into that month’s drawing–there’s no benefit to spamming the site with comments about how hilarious and handsome I am (but it’s not prohibited, either). If you can’t bear the thought of not having your name drawn at the end of every month, you can always purchase a sketch (you can also click here for sample sketches). They’re just six bucks each, and that covers shipping and handling! As time goes on, I’d like to be able to offer more contests and special stuff like this. That all depends entirely on website traffic, though–the higher the traffic, the more cool stuff I’ll be able to give away! If that’s not a good reason to tell everyone you know (and even people you don’t) about how they should read George comics….well, I’ll try and think of a better one later.


Twitter Webcomic Roundup, Part 3

Dumm Comics: I just…I have a thing for freakin’ bizarre comics, I know. Dumm Comics updates daily with a different comic each day–like Big Pants Mouse, 1930 Nightmare Theater, and Skadi, among others. Weekends are reserved for guest comics. The artwork here is always great, and with such a wide variety of comics, there’s probably something here you won’t completely detest looking at!

The Suckerboys: Jim Thorpe puts together a nice little comic here, with good artwork and punchy writing. I mean, one strip features a hair-eating magical hamster who poops leaves. I just…I dare you to find that in any other strip.

Misery Loves Sherman: This is one of those comics that could easily appear in newspapers, if newspapers were actually cool and not regularly used solely for collecting bird droppings. The strip features two aliens and a pint-sized Grim Reaper (Mortimer L. Death), as well as a poor kid named Sherman who just can’t catch a break. Come for the art and the writing, stay for the young boy who is abused by his family!!

Spud Comics: Single-panel comics in the vein of The Far Side…if you’re in to things like that, you’ll like Spud Comics. And it updates every weekday, so there’s always plenty to see. Zeus toasts his bread, Kermit the Frog gets a prostate exam, fishes fart underwater, and Pinocchio gets a flaccid nose, among other things.

Canned Ham: The comic from May 4 features Piglet getting evicted from the Hundred Acre Wood by a sanitary-mask wearing Winnie the Pooh and Tigger. You can’t really ask for anything better than that.

Nedroid: Nedroid is created by Anthony Clark, colorist on the phenomenal comic, The Adventures of Dr. McNinja. Look, pictures are worth like, thousands of words or something, so just look at this and tell me it’s not worth reading.

I’ll be back with one more Twitter webcomic roundup on Wednesday, and then that’ll be it for a while–but fear not, I’m following new Twomics (Twitter comics, right?) every day, so I’m sure there’ll be more of these in the future.
