Comic Notes

This comic is drawn in honor of National Cartoons Society weekend. The NCS Reuben Awards for best cartoonists are being held in my town of Pittsburgh this week. It seemed a crime not to post something special for the occasion.

In a few weeks, we'll return to regular stories of "Clive and Scatter" - I mean "Dynamite and Detonator" or "Cassidy, Maxwell, Clayton, Vincent..." Man, I have too many characters here. Darn eponymous comic strips.
