047: Showtime

Yes, people! The 28th Annual Battle of the Bands is finally here! And, by coincidence, this is TEO's first anniversary! Woohoo! I didn't know if I'd get this far, but, hey, now that I've gotten through TEO's first year, the next four years or so should be easy, right?

So, basically, here's how this is going to work: Every day for the next week or so, we're gonna display one of the guest comics you sent us, and at the end of the week we're gonna send a *secret grand prize* to the one we like the best. You see? You get something out of it, too! Plus you get to display your sweet musical chops.

So, yeah. To celebrate TEO's first year, I took a look back in the archives at the very earliest pages. And dang, the art sucks in them. Seriously. (No layers? No Multiply brush? Using a ballpoint pen? What was I thinking?) Still, I'm leaving them as they are, partly for historical reasons and partly because I'm too lazy to redraw them. (TEO Inquiry of the Week [doot doo dooooo!]: Should I redraw them sometime later– like over the summer or sometime?)

So, yeah. See you… tomorrow, I suppose. Later!

Sincerely,

Ian Jay.

PS: By the by, this week's comic isn't too detailed (read: it sucks) because I had to do it all today. And I had to do it all today to make it officially updated on Sunday, because otherwise this FRONT-PAGE DD POST would be off. Still… I did it, didn't I?
