Conventional Wisdom

Well now, THIS sure bogged things down a bit, didn’t it?  Sorry about that.  Figures I’d run out of the energy that was sustaining that super-quick comic output RIGHT as I came up against the single largest comic of the whole set, huh?  And better yet, this ALSO happened right when my backlog of Far Out There pages ran out, so I’ve gotta dive straight into finishing Monday’s page as soon as this is finished… and as soon as I finish another Digimon: Ghost Game comic, because I got so bogged down on working on this page that I genuinely forgot what day of the week it was.  WOW.

No, but seriously, there were noticeably fewer booths in the Dealer’s Room actually selling anime this year than I’m used to seeing at Animazement (presumably due to multiple other cons happening over the same weekend), and the one place selling anything cringe enough to make this kind of picture work really was set up in such a way that the act of taking such a picture would be even MORE cringe. That, or I’m just too traumatized by all those years in Artist Alley to think it’s funny when this sort of thing happens.

And yes, I finally am going back to using made up anime in stead of real ones for this page, because OF COURSE I’m not giving a shout-out to any of the trash that inspired this.  I DESIGNED THAT SHIRT FOR A REASON
