Just a Line?

I wonder what Julia wanted to say.

Is It Just Me, or Is He Stalling?

It's not just me. He's stalling. Big-time. On purpose. To annoy Moe, it seems like, in the last panel.

Rainbow Extension?

By "rainbow extension," Moe means that the strip's "rainbow," or the colors we use in the comic strip, will have more colors.

IT'S OUR 800TH POST!!!!!!!!

Snoopy's real line is "Some of us are upper-bunkers, and some of us are lower-bunkers.. I guess I'll always be a lower-bunker," right after he slid off his doghouse.

Did you notice that in the side view of the doghouse, it's like Snoopy's, with really thin pieces of wood, but when we switch to the 3/4 view, the pieces get thicker? I did that on purpose.

Earlier today, Julia, Merlin, and Heidi all challenged Moe to drink 800 glasses of milk in only 13 and one-third hours...800 minutes. I think he did it.

World War I Flying Dog

The strip is a reference to Snoopy's World War I Flying Ace stunts. Everybody should know that.

Now He's On the Tent?

The trick about drawing Merlin's doghouse is to try to make it as Snoopy-like as possible. Do you think I succeeded?

8/19/08

Like Snoopy!

What Covers?

The way I drew the doghouse is my own tiny tribute to Charles M. Schulz.

BACKWARDS?!

It's been a while since I did a Silly Putty Adventures joke. Let's do one today.
The fact that the overall movie idea would be written backwards is another idea I got from a dream.

A Tiny Dog Beat Him Up!

This is actually a spoof of a story created by The Master of Red Brick, Blue Brick. This strip was originally three!

T-Rex w/o a H'd

Translation in the title: "Tyrannosaurus Rex Without a Head."

We're getting close to our 800th post!

Where's The Toaster?

When I drew the last panel, I was thinking of drawing a toaster on the table. I don't know why I didn't.

Late RITM

Infinity!

For the last...er...panel, I traced around a real ten-dollar bill. The tiny writing at the bottom left of the bill reads, "SERIES 2008 J." The J stands for June, because that was the month the blog started!

Masculine

At first, I couldn't decide which to use in the middle panel: "doggy woggy" or "puppy wuppy." At first, Bob's stomach was shaped like an oval in the last panel. But I wanted him to look as masculine as possible, so I made him suck in his stomach. If you look closely you can see the little white pieces of paper I used to cover up the ovallish stomach.

I actually used a real black crayon for the last two panels.

Different Layout

This joke was so big, I had to refrain from my usual style to get enough panels for this joke. I had to not use my usual design because the maximum number of panels in that layout was 24, except for the top row. That eliminates six more panels, making the total only 18. The only way to keep it in that design were to stack two panels on top of each other in the same row, but that would be way too crammed. Although, it's more than enough panels. If we divide each of the bottom two rows in half, then we get four smaller rows, bringing the total to 36.

If you want to run the comic strip vertically, then take out the logo* and rearrange the panels (but keep them in the right order, of course) so that there are six rows with four panels in each row.

*If you want, you could enlarge it and put it at the top so the bottom edge is the same size as one row of panels. This takes up even more space, however.

Officers

Julia's looking mad because her younger brother is the president, and she's just an additional member.
