Okay folks. It's that time again. CONTEST! Whoever can write this wonderous Z&F strip gets a cameo of some kind in an upcoming strip! Either leave it in your comments or PQ me if you want to keep it private. I plan to do this maybe once a month when I need a little break. So, be ready!

If you can't make it out from the sketch, that's a batman and joker action figure and the bat mobile. If I had time to ink it, you'd know w/o me telling you. But that brings me to my reason behind this contest. In honor of the Wizard World Convention I'll be attending in Philly this weekend, I included a classic superhero. And the reason I had no time to do a "real" comic? I was preparing for this event: magnets, stickers, flyers, Tshirts. I'm ready, bring it on!

I'm also in mourning over my Cavaliers getting swept in the Finals, after they finally made it for the first time EVER. I'm so depressed I could eat a horse. I should be used to this, I'm a Cleveland fan. *sigh* Oh well, go Tribe!.. and "there's always next year" (a Cleveland Fan's Motto). 43 years and counting.

One last random trivia question to clear up something for me: what is the relation/non-relation of the "weird kid" character to the "owners" in the strip? I'd just like your honest answer, or your impression on how/where he fits into this cast.

Thanks everyone. Keep checking back to see how this strip turns out!
