Thank you, David. You are a true pal.
Seriously, @zandercannon.bsky.social really is the best. That guy makes amazing comics.
Gotta love a cartoonist who can do both. Exceptional finale, @zandercannon.bsky.social, and not just for the reason I already told you.
You should really read Sleep, which was easily one of the best comics of the past year.
I would normally save my favorite comics to read last but I might have to read this one FIRST.
Or... maybe... reread the entire series to get a fresh perspective. I did it a lot with Kaijumax...
It's a #ncbd day of finales!

Sleep #8 by @zandercannon.bsky.social
TODAY! "March fourth" to Hot Comics in Richfield (MN) and get a copy of the final issue of SLEEP! There will be a bunch of other comics, prints, and sketches, too. 3-6 pm (though I'll probably stick around a little later)
Thanks, man! π€π€
Don't Sleep on Sleep #8, a fantastic finale to a killer series from @zandercannon.bsky.social. It caused me to go back and re-read the entire series!
Heck yeah-- Sleep #8 gets a shout out in The Beat's Top Comics To Buy for this week!
I was amazed that both of those characters were very much still in my hand's muscle memory.
Which wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if they weren't so expensive/hard to get! When ours broke, I went to get a replacement and it was almost $200.

Incredibly, I did a sketch of one of them just a couple months ago!
π€π€ Aw! Thanks, pal!
Agreed. The subreddit r/buyitforlife has basically thrown up their hands and given up on refrigerators.

Tomorrow! I'll be at Hot Comics in Richfield MN signing the final issue of my image series SLEEP! Get the alt cover by @geneha.com or my regular old dirtbag cover! I'll be doing sketches and commissions, including the sketch cover edition of issues one and two! Come say hello! 3 to 6pm!

That would have solved at least *one* of the problems!
Finally had to replace a 10-ish-year-old Samsung refrigerator not because it failed, but because all of the little non-essential pieces that broke were impossible to find replacements for. The death of a thousand jury-rigged repairs.
I get maybe an email or two a week from Γrico asking me to clarify a scene, and the number of (stupid, juvenile) Kaiju jokes and (incomprehensibly obscure) American TV references that take paragraph upon paragraph to untangle constantly astound me.
Whale fact big!
wow!
I'm glad you're still kickin'. Happy anniversary.

Never heard of him but he seems pretty good at what he does!
Heck yeah
I RARELY double-buy a book just to get a second artist cover.
But I will in this case.
When fascists take rights away from a group of people, they never stop there. Eventually, they come for everything. Invalidating the drivers licenses of trans people in Kansas is just the start. Who will be next?

BREAKING: We're suing Kansas for a law that invalidates transgender people's updated driver's licenses and authorizes anyone to sue anyone they suspect of being trans for using the "wrong" bathroom.
Oh, also: I'm coming to C2E2 and I'll see you all there next month!
I can't wait to be put on blast for my subpar funnybook skills
