You gotta click it to make it bigger. And, yeah, it's in B&W. Sorry. Been busy.

Like the post title sez, this is the last page of the current story, "Tongue-tied."

After this I am taking a week off so I can concentrate on Stumptown and a job interview. The new story will start on Monday, May 5.

Page 22 appears in glorious black and white, because I ran out of time to slap RGB on it tonight. So it goes. I prefer to have these pages in color. If I don't, I just have to colorize it for the print collections.

In this week's installment, Michelle shows Chloe how to be a sophisticated lady.

I hope — I really, truly, honestly hope — y'all find Michelle's strut as disturbing as I intended.

Poor Chloe.

There is a page.

It is in color. It's not the best page. It's not the worst. Actually, I think the dialog is funny. Ma Pig cracks me up. And Dr. Knott is a nut. But I do regret putting Ma in a polka-dot dress. It's no problem drawing those circles, but filling them in with yellow is tedious.

Such is my lame attempt at writing production notes. Really, whaddya wanna know? I drew it, scanned it, colored it. Ta-da!

That's nice, toon boy. Now draw another one.

Another B&W page update, I am sorry to say. The usual reasons: work, family, and lack of sleep due to post-nasal throat irritation. I got some meds to work on it. Bleh.

I ran out of time this weekend to slap color on this pig.

Hope y'all enjoy the new neurological condition I coined.

Page fourteen is up at Modern Tales. This may be the first totally wordless page of Wanderlost/Sheldon I have composed in a long time. So, yay - no lettering!

As I note at the Modern Tales page, I have recovered from my illness. There were two days last weekend of near-total incapacitation, followed by a week of chewing Mucinex and blowing my nose so often I thought I might turn inside out. Now I'm a little sniffley, but that's nothing new for Mr. Allergies.

And this I pledge to you: this week In Contempt will not even remotely mention the Election, the primaries, or the candidates. Eff 'em! There are plenty of other stupid things going on that make me irate. Gad blouse a manicure!

Page 13 is now ready for viewing at Modern Tales.

This one features a corgi. I plan to put more corgis into "Wanderlost" for no better reason than I really like corgis. And boxers, boston terriers, and pugs, mostly because they have smushed-in faces and hyper personalities. Corgis are the true clowns of the dog world.

In other news, I am a dork.
