Greatest Moments Bun Toons! YAY!

Rested, relaxed, and ready to amuse you slightly.

Rested, relaxed, and ready to amuse you slightly.

There are moments in a person’s life where words fail and there’s no other choice but to turn to drawings with a bunny rabbit in them.

THE GREATEST MOMENTS websize

 

For those of you who aren’t freelancers, finding out you have more than two extra weeks to get something done you were already assuming was going to be about a week late is like being given a stay of execution by the Governor, WHILE getting a Swedish massage.   For those of you who ARE freelancers, stop reading this webcomic and get back to work, you don’t have any free time.

Ty the Guy OUT!

Today, for the Bonus:  I always draw my beloved wife as a giant rabbit, and considering that this is her birthday, you get a drawing of what she actually looks like.

I know what you’re thinking…Holy GOD, did I marry out of my league.  And you are correct.  But don’t tell the missus, or she’ll wise up.

Comic Book Marathon Bun Toons! YAY!

First we toon.  Then we talk.

And thus, Canadian Splendor is born.

Right now, in Toronto, my wife Keiren is at the COMIC BOOK LOUNGE AND GALLERY (387a College Street, at Clinton) presiding over yet another wildly popular COMIC BOOK MARATHON, for dozens and dozens of local creators to show off their skills and stamina.

When the art and stories come in from this latest one, we’ll put some of it up here and at the school’s website and all over the darn ‘net, don’t worry.

But the last marathon was the first time my wife sat down and participated, rather than just running it.  She produced about ten or twelve scripts for short autobiographical comic stories, most accompanied with simple artwork.  There was no talking her into running the strips with her original art, but she was willing to let me finish up one and put it up here.

I started with the one you just read because it was the shortest, but I’m going to do a few more over the next few months, just you wait.  I loved them.  I didn’t change anything, I just inked her drawings with a bold line and some minor details. There’s one about a road trip Keiren took in high school with her best friend that I will be doing finishes over her layouts for in the next few weeks.  I couldn’t do it today because it’s five pages long and I didn’t have that much time…but it’s great!  Some are funny, some are poignant, some are really personal.

Who knew I was married to Canada’s Harvey Pekar?

I’m wondering what she’ll be creating and bring back with her today!  If you’re in Toronto, head over to College and Clinton, bring a pencil and a sandwich, and see what new majestic tale Kerien and the rest of the cartooning legions of the Big Smoke are spinning now.

The first person to tell me Mad Magazine isn’t a comic book gets punched in the throat.
