Cleaning out the ol' AMOC Mailbag... again.

Hi, Everybody!

Um...there ain't one. It's Ramadan. So, Dave isn't reading John's Gospel, he's reading the Quran.
_____________________________________
So on Saturday, after posting Saturday's post, I cleaned out the 175 emails in the ol' AMOC inbox, and whittled it down to 33.

In the "cleansing," I found a few things I meant to post and "forgot":

Steve Swenson sent in:
Hiya Matt -

I don't think I'd sent this one in already: some copies of issue #14 printed without cyan made it past Quality Control at the printers. There's also cyan-less copies of #7 out there, one of the few Cerebus issues I'm still looking for.

Best -
Steve

And here's the not misprinted cover:

I got home from the tug boat and had a surprise in the mail. I would imagine the Best Gutter Meme contest I suggested had some stiff competition for the coveted prize and I graciously accept and thank the judges for their discerning taste.

It's good to know a guy. I believe I can now pester that Hobbs fellow now that I have an address and have been introduced.

Thank you!
Larry



Um, so, Larry wanted a Virgin Batvark: PENIS, and started a "contest" on the Cerebus Facebook group. I just paid Hobbs to send a copy to Larry. And Margaret. There was no contest.

Dear AMOC,

Thought you’d like to see this. (The Illustrated Police News was a newspaper in Victorian London. It specialised in lurid crime stories.)

No contest? You paid Hobbs? Holy meme crushing reality, Batvark!

I got a photo of the drawing I sent Hobbs I'll post tomorrow.

Thank you, again!

Margaret said...

You're the best boss man, no matter what they say. Next thing you know, I'll be getting paid sick time.

Mouse Skull Entertainment said...

Mags,

You'll get paid sick leave when Earth-pigs fly...
