Sympathy for the Devil

Sympathy for the Devil

Let’s try this again…
Yes, to answer the questions I know everyone is going to ask, I just wiped out any and all memories of Bud’s transformations for his friends here on forward.  No one will remember but him (and his little memento).  So to all of you who have asked is Old Bud telling his [...]

Soul Man – Part Deux

Soul Man – Part Deux

“Never rub another man’s rhubarb!”  or “Dont’ get cocky, kid!”  Either way, never laugh in the face of your enemy or you may get kicked in the butt.
This comic also received the “re-do” treatment.  I’m fussing over the ending a bit too much, but with reason, as this will launch the next wave of 1977 [...]

Soul Man – Part One

Soul Man – Part One

Welcome to the first official comic post for 2010!  It was a busy holiday creating desktops for the Subscriber area and rewriting this finale.
So, those of you thinking that the Mystic Frog’s spell was holding up Bud’s soul, you were right on the money.  But, if you go back to the comic from February 5th [...]

Deal With The Devil

Deal With The Devil

Oh, oh… Bud looks ticked…. So, what is the Loophole that is going to get Bud off the hook? Who could already have his soul? What the hell has Bud been doing to have his soul mortgaged by TWO different entities? Not bad for a boy from the Northside of Chicago! [...]

Hotel California

Hotel California

Just when you think things can’t get any worse… isn’t that life in a nutshell? Sure as hell felt that way last week around here so it’s ironic that Bud’s week isnt’ going all that well either.

We return to the Eagles’ “Hotel California” again today, this time tapping into the title track [...]

Problems – Part 2

Problems – Part 2

Lorraine’s expression in the 3rd panel just makes me smile… man, I love drawing her… and not for the obvious reasons either… she’s just a fun person. Her car is toast, she’s wrecked the set and she can still find a smile. My kinda person.
Toon in tomorrow for Part 3!

Problems

Problems

In October of 1977, the Sex Pistols released their one and only album aptly titled “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols” and punk rock started it’s climb from clubs to mainstream radio and record sales. Today’s comic title is very apt if you check out the lyrics… “Problem, the problem is you…” [...]

Life In The Fast Lane

Life In The Fast Lane

Thus starts the BIG ending of our gang’s California Road Trip. All the loose ends will get wrapped up in one tidy story arc that starts today. Drawing the damn car about wore me out… I’m not a technical artist by any stretch of the imagination. Love the fourth panel with Robyn [...]

This Morning

This Morning

I would say that “This Morning” Bud is in for more than he bargained for. We’ll be seeing a LOT more of Lorraine’s Polaroids as the Road Trip winds to a close here in the next week or so. Damn, this thing has grown a tad since I first wrote it! Captain’s [...]

Show Me The Way

Show Me The Way

Credit where credit is due… my “editor” came up with today’s song title and damn, it fits perfectly. Bud will certainly need to be “shown the way” in today’s romp. But who’s place did they end up in? Hmmm? That’s on Monday. Stay tooned.

Peter Frampton left Humble Pie in [...]

Polythene Pam

Polythene Pam

A bit of a twist for ol’ Bud. Obviously he likes girls but he’s not use to the, oh, operator’s manual of his current state. We’ll have to see where this goes.
The Beatles. Yes, the band that Paul McCartney was in before Wings. I think their best album by any shadow of [...]

I’d Rather Be A Man

I’d Rather Be A Man

1979’s release from the Alan Parsons Project was the often ignored album called “Eve”. According to Wikipedia, the theme of the album is the effect women have on men. Duh. Women have two effects on us… well, really only one and I don’t think we need to beat anyone with a 2×4 [...]

You’re My Best Friend

December 11th, 2009 | by Byron
Posted In: 1977 Comics, Road Trip California
You’re My Best Friend

Queen’s “You’re My Best Friend” was not my first pick for today’s comic. I originally picked War’s “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” as the title of the song just fit. But, alas, I could not stand listening to that damn song one more time. War’s song came out in 1975 and was [...]

Trampled Under Foot

Trampled Under Foot

Gotta learn when to stay down.  Never get in the way of two girls fighting.  I learned that the hard way.  I was very, very young and my two middle sisters were having a heated argument at the top of the stairs in our house.  I, as a mere innocent 6 year old, wanted to [...]

Surrender

Bonus Tuesday Comic! Just because I was late last Friday…
Let’s Get Ready to RUMMMMBBBBLLLLEEEE!!  Girl fight! Girl fight!  Remember that in Junior High?  Man, kick ass…
I knew I was never really going to capture Karen Carpenter’s look, so I just went with a hair style she wore in the later 70s.  She also is wearing [...]

Big Balls

I think Robyn has now left her mark on L.A., and of course, now Richard has big balls…  I pissed off the Dennis DeYoung fan club a few comics back, let’s see how the Carpenters fans chime in on this one.  I really doubt Carpenters fans read THIS comic.  Now, I did tone this one [...]

Just What I Needed

Okay, been a hell of a few days.  Yeah, yeah, I’m busy, but who isn’t?  But, every time I turned around since like Wednesday, the hours in the day just disappeared.  Don’t you hate when you have tons of crap to do and time seems to speed up?  Then Friday I was on the TGT [...]

Her Strut

I had to do this one… it just cracks me up.  And please, don’t tell me you don’t know who Lynda Carter is… I’ll just die!  Man, she’s was hot in the 70s and still rocks today.  Oh my, I feel a case of the vapors coming on…

How Many More Times

November 30th, 2009 | by Byron

How Many More Times

So, how many more times will Bud have to endure this mystical spell?  Or is he 50 years old taking Quaaludes to “chill out”?  Time will tell.
I wanted to update my rendition of the “Hulk-out” scene and had a great time doing that.  I SOOO wanted to colorize him green, but alas I hate lawsuits…  [...]

No More No More

November 27th, 2009 | by Byron

No More No More

For those of you new to the story, Bud licked a Mystic Frog (which was in Jeff’s pet collection) and this irritated the frog.  So it put a spell on Bud and whenever he gets angry, Bud transforms into the opposite sex via a very cool “Hulk-out” type effect.   Now, is L.A. ready for a [...]
