Intermezzo
Jeff: My dear partner Jeremy injured his back last week, and has been unable to draw. Just on a lark, I asked my son to draw a substitute comic for this week, and he told me he’d surprise me. He said something about showing the creative process, which sounded pretty neat, so I gave him a blank template (okay, I added a bit of text, first), and let him to it and upload it to the site, sight (heh) unseen!
Hope everyone enjoys this quick break in the story!
Jeremy: You both will pay dearly for this outrage. Once I can sit for a prolonged period of time, I will draw pictures of terrible things happening to you.
To everyone else, I wanted to let you know that I recently received a lower lumbar sprain from the Work Injury Demons. I am recovering at a steady pace, but sitting for prolonged periods of time is still pretty painful, and that is how I most comfortably do all my art duties for the strip. I hope you like what Jeff has delivered to you from Chez Burkholder, and find it entertaining. It really does speak a lot of truth to our collaboration dynamic.
Hey Elle, are you the Keymaster? This is awesome guys! Great work on the expressions Chris, you really captured the moment. That last panel is so awesome!!
This really sucks for Stan, I know their parents meant a lot to them and this is not only the loss of an instrument but the loss of a great memory.
The thing that you don’t see is that Chester is off-panel turning into a devil dog.
Love that last panel. haha. Nice one, sir.
Perhaps Chester can build a newer, gadget-y-er one for Stan. It will be event better than before! My favorite part is the things that Stan “says” in the first two panels.
Catching up today. Great work, Chris! And I, too, love the Ghostbusters reference.
