Butchering John Updike [Mar. 23rd, 2008|02:09 pm]
Last week, [info]bee_eye posted Lament, For Cocoa in honour of the birthday of its author, John Updike, and the fact he is still alive. My response is to butcher the living with the below doggerel. Enjoy (or not).

Lament, for Cuckoo

My bum has scum.
The cuckoo is bold.
He drinks my rum,
And I don't scold.

He hops in rage
Since all I've got
Is cheese--old, beige,
gooey as snot--

Snot too sticky
To be flicked off
And too stinky
To risk a waft.

Too tired to chase
Mister cuckoo,
I'd rather race
to the next brew.

Oh darn, he dies,
Rigid and still.
Why did he fly
Into my swill?

So bothersome.
He's gone for good.
Me and my bum
Should have stood.

[info]tedprior just posted the complete comic I scripted for him. He's really done a nice job on it (nicer than it deserves methinks). It's posted HERE. Hopefully, we will repeat this Australia-Hawaii collaboration in the not too distant future.

[info]tedprior has been posting installments of a comic I scripted for him for his Aussie 24-hour comic shindig. I am not convinced my script was terribly good (haven't had really any experience scripting more than a handful of panels at a time), but [info]tedprior has done a bang-up job on it from what I've seen so far. If there is any eventual dissatisfaction friends, it lies with me. The first installment he posted is HERE.

The year is winding, down, which means the deadline for Strip Fight 100: Contest of Champions is coming up, about 24 hours to go. I am happy to see comic strips so far submitted by

[info]zombichicken
Vince Beeble
[info]patchworkhero
[info]bougieman
[info]lemmingsolution
[info]bezman
[info]boxbrown
[info]tedprior
[info]sirive
[info]nedroid

So it looks like at least there will be more submissions than promos, which means I won't have to dab [info]bee_eye's tear-streaked face come NY's morn. We would dearly love to have many more entries make their way into the round though. Poor [info]bee_eye ran out of gas illustrating promos after number 10, and my arm got pretty tired cracking the whip, so if you weren't featured in one, please don't take offense, we do earnestly want to see a comic from you.

If you missed any of our promos, just scroll back through my journal to find them. Also, further very tasty promos were also created by a few of our pals and deserve some attention:

[info]zombichicken http://zombichicken.livejournal.com/17366.html

[info]nabbit http://nabbit.livejournal.com/20535.html (and happy belated birthday bub!)

[info]blindmole http://blindmole.livejournal.com/175299.html

Lastly, if you find you have ran past the deadline, we are pretty lenient in getting strips posted, just send your strip to stripfight@gmail.com and we will add in the entry the hard way.

Oh and lastly lastly, there is no cap on the number of submissions entered, so if you are duly inspired, feel free to send us a second or a third strip.

Pineapple! Tastes better than Poop! Strip Fight calls out [info]donnell. I directed [info]bee_eye to shoot one over your port bow and give you a little splash, but he is on a mean streak.
