92: Say My Name

92: Say My Name

by Ouro Bros. on January 26, 2012 at 12:00 am

Jeff: Check it out! Things are really starting to happen for the Bros. And with this show in Philadelphia’s own Milkboy, The Gordo Bordello Orifice Ouro Bros are on their way to fame, right? Woo!

Jeremy: So the Ouro Brothers, and that muscular guy in the purple shirt, arrive at another real life location. Seems that neither the fictional clubs, nor the real world venues, can get the band’s name right. Serves those guys right for having a name that is hard to pronounce and/or spell!

It’s fun to find real places for our cartoon band to make their fictional tour stops. Where else do you think these guys should play? Please weigh in down in the comments section! And while you’re at it, what are some other fun incorrect versions of “The Ouro Bros” that you would like to see misspelled/misinterpreted on a show bill? We might just use your suggestion in a comic sometime (and we’ll gladly point out who suggested it in the comic blog, too). Thanks!

I Drew Some Old Superheroes!

This past week and in the coming week(s), Brock Heasley and Marc LaPierre over at SuperFogeys are celebrating the 5th Anniversary of a great webcomic about aged superheroes living in a retirement home. I have been reading this comic (starting at the beginning, then catching up with the archives until I got current with the story) for over a year now, and have really enjoyed watching where Brock has taken his story, seeing art progress, and then seeing the arrival of the great Marc LaPierre to fulfill art duties on the comic this past year (Brock did both writing and art for the first few years of the comic).

I had the chance to contribute to the 5th Anniversary of this excellent webcomic by drawing up some art. Brock put out a call to artists and writers alike to contribute to the anniversary celebration by doing chapter recaps of the 12 current chapters of SuperFogeys, as well as other written and drawn submissions. I drew up a poster-style visual recap of Chapter 4 of the SuperFogeys story (entitled “Dictator Tot’s Revenge”). You can check it out here: (link to Jeremy’s art submission!).

Thanks for reading this and for checking out another fantastic webcomic!

Guest Comic Strip at Zombie Roomie

Jeff and I did a guest strip for John Wigger over at Zombie Roomie. We have followed John’s comic for quite some time now, and it was our pleasure (and an honor) to be able to do some guest work for his website. For those who already read Zombie Roomie, you may notice a few extras that were added visually that speak to George’s character especially ;) . For those who don’t already read Zombie Roomie, seriously, what’s your problem go read it right now (NOW NOW NOW)!

Thanks to John for posting our guest strip!

Japan

When I first got into the comic business, I had no idea the community and camaraderie amongst the artists, but I quickly learned. Our products may not always show it, but as artists, we’re all a buncha softies at heart. So we here at the Ouro Bros (and I’m speaking for Jeremy as well, since he’s currently getting a hose stuck in his ear or something) are joining with Comics for Japan, and would like to ask our dear readers to turn their attention to the recent tragic events the Japanese have and continue to face.

First up, Google and the Red Cross in Japan have teamed up on a page for monetary donations. The lowest you can donate is 100 yen, which translates to just above $2. Every little bit counts.

Prefer to send something other than money? Check out Second Harvest. This is an organization in Japan to which you can ship supplies that will be given DIRECTLY to the people who need them. Take a look at the list of supplies at the link. You might consider gathering up a big box of supplies and having a few friends pitch in for shipping to Japan. They need raw supplies more than money at this time.

You can also text REDCROSS to 90999 to easily donate $10 to the Red Cross.

Thank you all, and we wish you the best.
–Jeff and Jeremy

Behind the Scenes: #41

Hello, Dear Readers!

Ken Mueller, our friend, occasional patron, and often brunt-of-old-man-jokes, suggested we put up another BtS post about those photos on the wall behind our intrepid java-jonesin’ Elle. Well, how could I turn down such a request? (Quite easily, I realize, but I shan’t.)

First off, a closeup of the bulletin board itself, with the photos in question.
Photos at Square One

In there, we have:
Nean "Jasmine" BurkholderMy delightfuly picturesque wife, Nean Burkholder, the inspiration for our snarky barista, Jasmine.

Chad "John the Stutterer" DillerA photo of a younger Chad “John the Stutterer” Diller, as featured in last week’s strip.

Jeremy and JamieMy partner-in-crime, Jeremy, and his (Jeremy’s superlative adjectives here) wife, Jamie, on a trip to Boston.

Jeremy and his sibsJeremy again, albeit significantly younger, with his brother and sister during a trip to Niagara Falls. I believe Child Protective Services were called in immediately after this photo was taken.

Nora tells it like it isAnd finally, a shot of Jeremy and Jamie’s daughter, as a baby, telling the world (and the photographer) just what she thinks of everything.
