If you haven't checked it out already, be sure and head on over to Tall Tale Features and read our fantastic, insightful with Berkeley Breathed!

Mr. Breathed, you'll recall, is the Pulitzer Prize-Winning cartoonist behind "Bloom County," "Outland," and "Opus." As cartoonists ourselves, it was a wonderful opportunity to ask a few questions of Mr. Breathed and he was extremely generous with his answers.

Definitely worth a read. Hit the link above!

There's a slight delay in effect on the Tall Tale Features "Comic Swap." I've completed my entry for Lucas Turnbloom's "Imagine This" and I'm pretty proud of it, actually. I cheated a bit and did a crossover between SuperFogeys and Imagine This, instead of just doing an out-and-out guest strip. In fact, when it does drop it'll be a bit of a peek into the future–it also happens to be SF Episode 5.150.

(And yes, this does in fact break my "no crossovers" rule. You'll understand why it actually works when you see it.)

***************

Don't forget that the SuperFogeys Collection #3 featuring all of Chapter 4 and the exclusive Untold Tale of the SuperFogeys, "Cellmates" with art by Chip Skelton, is now available for preorder! Guarantee your copy today.

Finally saw There Will Be Blood this past weekend. Interesting movie. Fails more than it succeeds, but I can't say I wasn't riveted. I think there was a lot of interesting things going on there, but the minimalist style of storytelling employed by Paul Thomas Anderson did not serve the epic nature of the tale being told very well.

The new superfogeys.com is still coming, but it's not here quite yet. Gonna be fantastic when it lands and I've already put into place a great little "launch treat" for when it does. I'll keep you posted.

As for today's strip…for those of you with memories not quite as long as mine, I encourage you to check this strip out.
