Back in the moose saddle
I have returned to my Vancouver homeland! And though it always feels nice to come home after a trip, I am definitely going to be missing all my comics cohorts down in Portland... especially all the other incredible folks at Periscope Studio. Thanks for putting up with me for two weeks, guys! I wish you had to keep doing it forever.
But now I'm in my usual office, with a few new commissions and a bunch of other projects I'm eager to get working on. Here's to (hopefully) being as productive back in my regular office as I was down in Portland!

Sam and Fuzzy Q & A: Surprisingly Short Answers Edition
Got a question you want answered? Just drop me an email with "Q & A" in the subject line!
"I feel like I'm missing a super big reference here. So just to clarify, is "Please, call me... SEX POTTS!" a reference, or just something maniacal that popped itself out of your mind-womb?" -Allison
"Sexpot" is 50s slang for a sexy lady! Think "bombshell". If there's one person on earth who has been called a "sexpot" more times than any other, it's probably Marilyn Monroe.
"Is it really supposed to be vamp vamp? Not tramp vamp or vamp tramp?" -Noah
Intentional! That's vamp (as in vampire) and vamp (as in a femme fatale). It's a little goofy because femme fatales are called "vamps" specifically because of their metaphorical similarity to vampires, but a little goofy is how I roll.
And apparently, archaic terminology for sexy people is also how I roll!
"Is strip 486 the first appearance of Mr. Tusks?" -Jimmy
Jimmy. Are you trying to tell me all elephants look the same to you? That's speciesist, man!
That's a wrap for this week! I will return on Monday, back at home in Vancouver with another new comic for you to read.

Meets and eats
I have been having a heck of a time down here in Portland! But I'm also looking forward to getting home. (I MISS MY DOG.) Still, I want to make sure I cram in as much comic-related goodness as possible into my last couple of days in town.
If there are any Portlanders who were hoping to get a chance to get all up in my face before I head home, may I recommend this Thursday's Comic Rocket Meet-Up? It's an open event for anyone interested in hanging out and talking about webcomics (while eating). Shannon and I are both going, and I'll be bringing a handful of books with me in case we run into anyone is interested in nabbing one. (Alas, I don't have any copies of Vol. 3 with me... sorry!)
