It's always a bad thing when I rediscover Poison Elves...

One of the few American comics I really got into. Unfortunately, the writer/artist Drew Hayes is sick. Bad kinda sick. And he has been for a while. Comics are erratic at best. It started with the indication of a definite planned. Now, I guess we can only hope he is able to finish the story. As I promised Jenni, I've started making some PE icons. Quotes mostly.

So um, well... yes, I AM stupid. Apparently.

So, who's ever heard of 24 Hour Comic Day?
The concept, basically, is that over the course of a 24-hour period you create a 24 page comic. every year there is an official 24 Hour Comic Book day even. And on the official day, there are official sites all around the country that host a space for people to go sit and do this. Many a less than sane web comicker has done it, and a few pros.

I've been meaning to do this for years. And this year, I'm signed up to do exactly that. I'll be in a comic shop called ComicKaze from Noon on Saturday to Noon on Sunday. Heh Heh. See, stupid. Michelle said she's doing it this year too, but from the safety of her townhouse. I will probably call on speaker phone at random points purely to raz her/encourage her/amuse my sleep-deprived mind. Hell, I encourage my friends to do the same to me. Come by if you're in San Diego even.

I was seriously thinking I'd pre-write my script. But that's cheating... and wrong or something. But I do want at least have a concept or two before-I walk in the door. So um, please give me suggestions?
