Well, I guess I'm getting a whole season's worth of fanservice out of the way in the first strip.

Honestly, even up to writing this, I went back and forth on if I should run this strip, because it's pretty gratuitous, and it is for a reason, but I certainly don't want to alienate any readers. I think it's really good, though, I like the joke and the art turned out great, and I think the gratuity lends itself to the punchline.

I hate doing backgrounds. Not because it's hard or I don't enjoy drawing different things, but because it's time consuming and I just have too little time to indulge in drawing anyway. So my backgrounds tend to be pretty minimal. Hopefully it's recognizable a door opening to a bathroom. The tile in the bathroom is a pattern from here [link] and I did not create it. I wish I could remember where I got the lace pattern for the bra to credit it, but it's been sitting in a folder on my computer for years, and sadly I can't recall. In tiny chance the creator finds this, contact me and of course proper credit will be given. But let's face it...I don't have a huge web presence.

The idea of Curt getting in better shape was originally a joke drawing I did, but then I ended up liking it and the idea, and I figured they'd need better jobs to afford their rent, so I ran with it.

I'm surprised I didn't comment on this sooner, but I'm actually impressed with Curt's resolve here.

When did Kurt become self-actualized?
By the way, just caught "21 Jump Street" on Encore this weekend.
That HFS stuff needs it's own icon!
So does "tripping major ballsack."

When it would make for a good joke. Β 


I did like 21 Jump Street okay...It was definitely not what I was expecting!

Hell, I've never seen 21JS before.

It was before my time…

Still, that was funny shit!

I hadn't either, but I like Jonah Hill, and it was on HBO or something, so I had it available. Β I ended up really liking it.

So did I.

I had so many ROFLCopters, I think I may have broke something…

Really? It's actually way easier to draw him with a more normal build instead of crack skinny. Drawing rail thin characters really plays havoc with proportions, and it rarely looks right to me.

I'm a bit more conservative when it comes to stuff like this, but I thought you executed it well. As long as there is some sort of purpose, I don't find it 'alienating'. Well done!

Cool, that's really good to hear! I really do feel it's in service of the joke, so it's heartening that the little feedback I've gotten seems to indicate that people get that.

Looks like Curt is back to his old grumpy self with plenty of misfortune to wallow in.

The art is quite good. Looking forward to the rest of this season, and I hope it's not the last of the fan service
