Halloween

Halloween was quiet but good. I gave out 30 comics to trick-or-treaters. Some of the kids asked, “What’s this?”. When I told the last one, “Comics,” she said, “Nice!“

The Boy in the Cemetary p.2

Get copies of “The Boy in the Cemetery” formatted as a minicomic to give to trick-or-treaters, Halloween party-goers, goblins, etc.!

Buy packs of “The Boy in the Cemetery” & my other Halloween comics.
Buy it as part of a set with Halloween comics by other cartoonists.
Right-click & download the PDF of “The Boy in the Cemetery” 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”).

Assembling the comic is pretty easy! Print the PDF double-sided at 100% (no scaling; don’t let the program “adjust to printer margins” or anything like that). Each copy of the file produces 4 copies of the comic; when you cut them apart, the pages will be in the right order for you to staple & fold. If using scissors instead of a papercutter, you may want to cut after folding. Staple in the center & fold. If you’re using a standard stapler, you may want to fold the comic before stapling or use a ruler to help find the center (at 2 3/4″). If using a long stapler, the measurement marks probably don’t go down to 2 3/4″, so line up a ruler with the one on the stapler to get the added measurement.

New web-shop

I’ve moved my shop to Storenvy! I’ll bring it back here someday, but for now it’s easier to manage there. The newest item may be of special interest: Halloween Comics packs!

Fear & Loathing in the “Holiday Section”

Last night a department store’s holiday section disturbed me so much that I had to photograph it:

I know it looks pretty tame, but look closer (click to enlarge, if needed). To the far right we have Halloween supplies. Far to the left we have more Halloween supplies (it’s hard to tell here, but those letters hanging from the ceiling say, “COSTUMES”). In between, we have Christmas supplies. Three days before Halloween.

I am not only an expert on time from having drawn comics about it, I am also an ordained minister, so I know what I’m talking about when I say THIS IS WRONG.

Shorter than “The Great Pumpkin”

I think my new Halloween tradition (besides posting free comics) is posting and watching this video:

The fact that some of the scenes are comic book pages is just icing on the cake. I recommend watching it full-screen.

Another Free Halloween Comic!

In addition to “Ask Jack,” I’ve now posted a PDF of “Beware the Vampire” for you to download, print, and give to the spooks that visit you on Halloween.

I did not realize when I decided on a bat-themed maze to go with “Beware the Vampire” that I would end up drawing two hundred and twenty-six bats.

Free Halloween Comic!

I’ve just posted a PDF copy of “Ask Jack” so you can print out your own copies to give to trick-or-treaters, Halloween party-goers, goblins, or what have you. I’ll be posting a downloadable version of another Halloween comic soon.

Enjoy!

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!
