Noodle Wrestling Mayhem

This strip took more research than you might expect! Selected sources:

Shellshock (more commonly known as the Swinging Reverse STO, a type of “facebuster”)
Butterfly Suplex
Pasta shapes
Bonus item: Noodle wrestling

This comic is part of the Comics Rehab Ripoff, in which I and some cohorts post at least 4 panels every 4 days to encourage our comics groove. Follow along to possibly see some of my comics before they appear here, or better still to see the good things my companions are posting. Want to join in?

I bet he’d think splitting atoms to boil water is a great idea.

Beware the Vampire

Well, there’s my take on vampires for you.

Get “Beware the Vampire” formatted as a minicomic with puzzle to give to trick-or-treaters, Halloween party-goers, goblins, etc.! Buy packs of “Beware the Vampire” & other Halloween comics, or right-click & download the PDF of “Beware the Vampire” to print. All I ask if you download is that you email or leave a comment to let me know you downloaded it and how many you printed & where they went (for example, “30 copies to trick-or-treaters in Putney, VT”).

It’s easy! The PDF has 2 pages which should be printed as one double-sided sheet in “landscape” format, preferably on red paper. There are 2 copies of the comic on the sheet, so cut the sheet in half (if using scissors instead of a papercutter, you may want to cut after folding). Fold the comic in half so you can’t see the covers, then on each side fold the edge next to the opening back to meet the edge with the fold, producing a little booklet with covers where you read the comic, then flip over & open the back for a puzzle! It should look like this (except a different comic, of course). Put them under a heavy book for a while so they stay closed better.

Have a fun & spooky Halloween!

Buy packs of “Ask Jack” and other Halloween comics

Ask Jack

It’s easy! The PDF has 2 pages which should be printed as one double-sided sheet in “landscape” format, preferably on orange paper. There are 2 copies of the comic on the sheet, so cut the sheet in half (if using scissors instead of a papercutter, you may want to cut after folding). Fold the comic in half so you can’t see the covers, then on each side fold the edge next to the opening back to meet the edge with the fold, producing a little booklet with covers where you read the comic, then flip over & open the back for a puzzle!

Trees & Hills flyer

Here’s a quick flyer I made for Trees & Hills. When we get some more stuff worked out, I’ll draw up a little ‘Intro to T&H’ mini. Sorry for the crummy scan, but I just finally got the hang of scanning black & white properly, never mind color.
