If I weren’t so freakin’ tired from having just returned from Florida, I’d give Kevin Pettway of the great D&D comic “Heroes of Lesser Earth” a big plug! Well, this small one will do until I recover later Thursday! I’m so much more awake now than I was late last night when I posted this originally, and can really appreciate Kevin’s humor in this comic. The superhero tie-in is perfect, and having Batman call Superman “an ass” is just too damn funny. And Ivy commenting on how her boyfriend shouldn’t date villians if he didn’t wanted to be cheated on is classic! Well done Kevin and you need to go check out his comic. I’m not a D&D person at all, but I love the sense of humor Kevin uses to make the comic funny for D&D folks and idiots like me! Go! Click now!
The guest strips are (were) fantastic and I’m honored to have such cool artists among the many readers of the comic!
Now, I’m crashing for a LONG overdue rest. I hate vacations…
UPDATE:
Okay, I guess I’m “refreshed” after some sleep. Nothing against others, but I can’t stand vacations. They’re nothing more than a madhouse of deadlines; rushing so you can go “relax” yet you end up trying to cram so many activities into a short time span that you completely defeated the reason for the vacation in the first place: to get away from the day-to-day stresses of work and household chores. So we spent 5 days traveling and enjoying Anna Maria Island on the gulf of Florida. The weather was cool (but still warmer than Chicago) and the water freezing. And the main activity consisted of walking the beach and looking for shells. The quest for the perfect shell is never completed until you go down the road and buy one for $6 and take it home in a tiny bag only to find it crushed by the gorillas who handle your luggage at the airport. That was so worth it!
Okay, for a full run down, go to my blog site by clicking here.
Oh, and the song title: Van Halen recorded their first album in October of 1977, thus the connection to the year and comic. Well, it sounds good just the same! 
I’d rather be rescued by Ivy anyways, even if I don’t smoke pot……:p
It always took me a full week of work to fully recover from my vacation. I hope you had fun anyway!
Um… “Jump” came out in 1983.
RE: satyrblade – True, true… but Van Halen’s first album came out in 1978, so I fudge from time to time on the titles.
Also, Kevin named the comic and I wasn’t sure if he had a song title in mind or just simply that Bud “jumped” at going out with Ivy… hey, I would…
I was thinking about the song… sorry, I was just stupid.
I’ve named a few comics after 80′s songs, but the band had ties to 1977 (Talking Heads to name one). I thought it was fine. Maybe you didn’t know Van Halen had a 1977 origin, but we all do now!
Clearly, he made the right choice here though if she drops him, one hops she’ll restore the roach before he loses consciousness…
me too, I don’t mind being rescued by Poison Ivy. She’s hot
It will be part of the prescient option under design now. ,
