BRAND NEW Z&F Volume 4:
Back for another season! And it feels great to be back in the swing of things, folks. Kicking it off with this little arc about cereals.. because, well, why the heck not. I’d like to thank Z&F reader Rainey, whose “Famous Duos” fanart submission inspired this idea…. and quite possibly the next Fanart Challenge Project! How does designing your own cereal box, featuring Z&F sound? What kind of cereal would Z&F sponsor? Keep an eye out, as I plan to make a Fanart Challenge page, with details on whatever fun project is going on here at ZFCOMICS! Anyone can submit, and the fanart submissions will be posted on fridays! What a great way to get some drawing practice in, huh?
So, beyond this new Fanart Challenge idea, I have a few more changes to announce here. In fact, I already laid it all out in a BLOG POST HERE. Basically, look for new comics on MONDAYS, a fun blog post if I have the time on WEDNESDAYS, and fanart/news on FRIDAYS. If you’re curious about my 2013 appearances at comic cons and events, check out THIS POST for more info.
Oh yeah, one more thing….
In case you haven’t been around these parts as of late….. something NEW is in the store….
***NEW!*** Z&F Volume 3:Anger is So MainstreamComics #400-600 plus bonus material

Mmmm, diabetes tastes best with whole milk!
whole milk makes it healthy!
Lets not forget the sugar high and the ensuing ….crash! [blinks] Welcome back Z&F!
Thanks Scott/Madbuy! Nothing like a sugar high to kick off the season! Something’s gotta get them through.
Well they did say prize in side every box, just not that the prize was for your doctor in about 20 years when your feet start going numb, and you wake up with a little less eye sight than the night before. Just put me in my chair and push me towards the Sugar Crisps, I’ll be fine in a moment.
I remember getting in trouble as a kid cause we’d open the cereal boxes upside down to get tot he prize quicker. They should really put them on the outside of the inner back and just let kids lift out the bag to get to the prize, but they want you to eat your way there. We had cool toys in our boxes back then, now everything is “save the UPC codes and mail it in”. I still have some of my Captain Crunch toys that the boys now play with.
Speaking of prizes inside things, some of you may be too young to remember this and if you are that’s a shame cause it was a wonderful time. Do y’all remember when they would put baseball cards in the loaves of breads. Oh man, I used to have a ton of those Ms. Baird bread baseball cards. I remember talking my mom into buying us a few loaves of day old bread in order to get the baseball cards, and at 15 cents per loaf that was a good deal back then. We’d eat what we could and the rest was duck food at the pond downtown. They don’t even sale day old bread anymore do they, man how times have changed.
It’s so great to see Z&F back.
Hi Todd! As always, I love your thoughtful, funny comments.
I don’t remember baseball cards in loaves of bread, but I would have loved that! Used to collect sports cards back in the day, but it was mainly basketball for me. Have some old baseball cards from my grandpa– a lotta Indians cards, but he’s got a couple in there that are worth some decent cash, I think. Eesh, that was kind of a bust on my Indians, heh.
Cereal box toys were always 90% anticipation, 10% actual fun. It’s a good life lesson, LOL!
Z&F is back! That’s the real prize.
WOOOOOOT! Thanks Zerowolf :0D
I want to laugh, but that’s what I did as a kid. The difference was that I was actually excited to get the prize.
Oh gods, I was a pathetic little kid…
ahahah, well we all did, Samwise. The difference here is there are beings of higher intelligence analyzing the prize, and at least ONE of them still got excited over it. ;0)
And what is even worsererer is that I am a type 1 diabetic.
Do you think a multi-million dollar lawsuit against cereal is out of the question?
‘People of the jury. I should win because the prizes stunk, and I can’t eat candy today. I rest my case.’
Proooooooooooooooooobably not…
Nice to know that my influence is a big part of a story arc in Zorphbert and Fred
indeed, Rainy! You got my gears a-turnin’!
