A four-panel black-and-white comic by Madscott. Panel 1: A stern-faced cat sits alone off panel someone says "Yes, hello... can you please get some help." Panel 2: A second, smaller and more cheerful cat has joined the first; the person off panel clarifies "I was hoping for some human help actually." Panel 3: The perspective shifts to ground level, revealing the recurring bearded man lying flat on the floor, looking up with a pained expression, saying "I know that laying here looks like fun..." Panel 4: A wide shot of the room shows the man splayed on the floor near a window and bookshelf, surrounded by multiple cats sitting calmly nearby, with the speech bubble completing his thought: "But I'm in a lot of pain." The humor lands on the cats' total indifference — one halfheartedly attempted to summon help, but the others are simply enjoying the spectacle of their human on the floor, which to them probably does look like a perfectly reasonable place to lie down.

Cats will not rescue you or get help.. they may sell tickets to your discomfort though

While you’re waiting

I’m in something of a frantic prep-mode for Fall Comicon. I have comics to scan and post but I have put that on hold so I can get some neat stuff done for the show. I’m going a slightly different direction from previous shows. I’ve scrapped some of the fan art I had (outside of sketch cards) and am putting out more of my art. As such this years book marks look more like this. fallcon_bookmarks

Voice of Reason

Posted on September 8, 2016 by Scott
For future reference, it’s not impossible that I may be the voice of reason, but if you ask me for ideas on what’s reasonable I will almost always suggest some combination of the following.
  1. Get pizza instead.
  2. Maybe limit the number of fingers you might lose to one.
  3. If the fire only takes off hair then it’s not a big enough fire.
  4. You are only going too fast if you also need to turn. If no turning is needed keep going forward.
  5. An angry bear is only dangerous to people to proud to trip a friend
  6. You can put your boots in the oven but that don’t make ’em biscuits
  7. If you can’t solve a problem with a hammer you clearly need a bigger hammer

Aug. Addition of the state of things

Posted on August 10, 2016 by Scott
It’s been too long and the pile of comics I need to scan keeps growing. I’ve been posting some photos of them over on the facebook page and on instagram but I want to get clean versions posted here. I am also in the process of signing up for a few shows and will put up a list once I get a confirmation. I believe I will be doing a couple of traditional craft shows as well as a couple comic shows. ** I’ll post again soon

I stumbled into some cool little bags and decided to try them out as dice bags. If you see me at MSPComicon you have a shot of buying one. dice_bag
