BRAND NEW Z&F Volume 4:
I enjoyed drawing the extra detail I put into panel one. I always think it’s interesting when cartoonists zoom in on their characters- how and where they add detail, how much the style may change, how realistic they go with it. Can show off different skills they have up their sleeves.
2 Weeks of Favs:
For next week and the week after I will be running some Z&F Favorites from 2009, M-W-F. I will be heading to Cleveland with my guy and some buds to see a Cavaliers home game (finally). I have seen Indians and Browns games at “home” (in Cleveland), but have yet to see a Cavs game at “The Q”… and with Lebron running rampant and this great season they are having, I cannot forgo it again this year. Plus, I am finalizing the first Z&F Collection, and need the extra time to crank out the finishing touches. Hey, how ’bout a teaser of the cover? (which IS done, btw)
If you can recall a favorite Z&F of yours from 2009, feel free to mention it in your comment. I’ll add it to my list!
But…but…he was gonna’ get the high score on Blank Screen! It’s always fun when you have to fill in detail, otherwise, you have a lot of blank space that you then have to color anyway, so you might as well plop something in. I loves me a challenge…which is actually forcing me to draw things in the backgrounds now…lol…
Great job, Dawn!
know what you mean about background… my leave favorite thing to do! Thanks ;0)
Heading to the lovely Garfield Heights section of Cleveland today!! Enjoy your trip.
ah yes.. another “Heights” ….everything is “heights” around there. I grew up one town over from Cleveland Heights… – South Euclid.
Don’t get me started on Cleveland Heights. My mom’s family was from around there and last time I was there for work I got a ticket on a 4 lane road that should be 35MPH but was only 25 unknown to me.
heh heh.. Mayfield Rd., by any chance? (322 I think is the #)
Awesome job with the closeups Dawn! Zorphbert might want to stick to board games!
Errr. Fred. My apologies to Zoprbhbert! Unlike Zorphbert I’m obviously not the brains of ANY operation!!
WOW! And now I can’t spell Zorphbert!! SHOOT…ME…NOW!
*pats Rick/Ken on the head*
It’s okay man. I’ll refer to you as “Rick” from now on, how’s that?
and no one can even pronounce Zorphbert, I wouldn’t expect them to spell it correctly. (Trust me, if I have to google it, I spell it at least 5 different ways to find new results)
Really great strip. The Close up is really cool, great detail. I think Fred has a better chance of scoring a higher score with the console off. 🙂 I think Fred and Zorphbert should go head to head on a game, I’d love to see who would be the victor. I would think Zorphbert would over analyze it to the point of losing big time, then Fred would have something he could hold over him. Maybe a challenging game of Pong. 🙂
Pong you say? We already know how Zorphie feels about pong:

But he likes Space Invaders better:

But what about BEER pong?
Love that classic video game lean (I still haven’t learned that violently jolting my body back and fourth doesn’t always result in the same movement on the screen)!
The best thing to come out for people like you (and my parents) was Mario Kart for the Wii. Finally, they could turn the controller like it was a wheel.. because.. *gasp* is IS a wheel!
Hahaha … I don’t know if it’s good to encourage this tendency (my wife and I have a Wii and I have the scars to prove it)! 🙂
Haha, that is so me when playing video games!
sadly, it’s how I get my heart rate up best.. but my doctor doesn’t seem to think it qualifies as exercise.
Thats hilarious. Thats how I feel all the time, LOL
Heaven help you when your life’s power button is actually hit, LOL
Nice one! I like the first panel. Good work on the expression.
why thank you!
Agree with you on the power of extreme close-ups; very ‘Spumco’!
Reminds me of the days I used bash on the Sega Mega Drive II… and other such Ataries
LOL, my power button. I like that.
heh, i wonder if he gets that excited trying to boot up the blue screen of death on a computer
I’m so terrible at today’s video game systems that there’s really no need for me to even play. 🙂
Ha! Good one Dawn.
