I’ve started another blog project called the cute li’l guy of the day. It is exactly what it sounds like. Unlike life, it’s kid friendly, so please pass it on to the wee ones as well as the hopelessly immature adults in your life. I do plan on updating it daily or so, although this could very well prove insane to attempt. If you go to the site, my two year old daughter Esther sings the cute li’l guys theme song (refresh the page for a different version), which truly enhances the experience… she is also helping me color some of them.

I’ve made a widget of it that you can embed in your blog, website, social networking page, digital orifice or what-have-you by clicking here, if you are inclined to do that sort of thing. The widget is embedded in the sidebar of the STWALLSKULL site, so you can follow it there as well, assuming you are not a cute lil guy hater.

I’m also using Cafe Press to simulate the existence of an obscene quantity of ridiculous cute li’l guy merchandise that you can choose to summon into reality by sacrificing money to them (and to me, although in smaller quantities, alas). The merchandise will be changing regularly as well… individual cute li’l guys will only be available on merchandise for a short time before they are replaced with other cute li’l guys.

You can subscribe to the cute li’l guys in a newsreader or via email here.

My friend Zander Cannon just posted two collaborative jam comics we recently did for volumes 2 and 3 of the fun Muscles and Fights anthologies edited by Bud Burgy and Amado “Arex” Rodriguez. Click the image to go to the post, which has links to the full comics. You can purchase volume 1 and volume 2 from the Muscles and Fights website. Volume 3 is coming very soon!

Zander’s ink-brother Kevin Cannon posted his hilarious comic for M&F VIII here.

No holiday season would be complete without the foodog guardians on either side of the chimney… for as we know, a roaring fire does not guarantee protection from rosy-cheeked elf invaders. The moon-born guardians of dreams are now available on mugs in which you can ironically drink caffeine-laden beverages in a vain attempt to avoid their fearsome and inevitable wrath. Click here to purchase the right-facing canine, and here to purchase his left-facing comrade.* These murderous beasts of Morpheus are also available (for a limited time) on a variety of garments that, unfortunately, will offer you no protection at all from them once they have your scent burning in their firey nostrils. Chain mail would really be more appropriate, but we’re all on a budget this time of year, aren’t we? Wear these fine threads and know, at least, that when you are devoured you will have seen them coming. Happy holidays!

*We take no responsibility for any hint of urine under the holiday tree corpse offering.

Here is a portrait I did the other night of my friend Bud Burgy’s characters (with his brother Fud) Meatfist and Gronk…

Below is a logo I entered in the logo contest for the third volume of Bud and Amado Rodriguez’s ongoing Muscles and Fights anthology (I’ve had work in the first two volumes which came out this year… you can see a slideshow with a preview page of my collaborative strip with Zander Cannon from volume 2, and a lot of other great stuff from that volume, here). Note that the third volume will be coming out soon, and Bud and Amado are still looking for more comics… the deadline is January 15th (submission info can be found on the site). They just put a very flattering write up about me on the site too, currently at the top of the home page! Aw, shucks, I’m blushing… Thanks fellas.
