Emerald City approaches! Do you know how to find me in the new, TWO-HALL floor layout? Because it's easy! (With this diagram.)

You'll be able to find me in one of the two Topatoco booths -- either the massive #1002, or the neighboring #905. (I'm not sure which one yet... but usually, I share the smaller booth with Jeph.) As usual, Topatoco will be selling a wide variety of their Sam and Fuzzy swag, while I hang out in their general vicinity doodling goofy stuff and meeting readers. It should be fun!

New character week continues over at Skull Panda! Have you been reading Skull Panda? Because if you haven't, you've been missing out on stuff like this:

Cons and dogs

It is New Character Week over at Skull Panda, apparently! I am not entirely sure what that means.

It's also almost Emerald City Comic-Con time! The show starts this Friday, and as usual, I will be hanging out at the Topatoco booth. Hope to see a lot of you there, Seattle-ites!

And just a note: I am down to my last couple of Sketch-Off originals. If you want to pick one up, just pop into the gallery and see what's left!

Just a reminder, team... the auction for Chris Yates and I's one-of-a-kind Conscience Cat & Baker Wood Puzzle auction ends today! So if you want to nab it, get in while the getting is good.

Sam and Fuzzy Q & A: Vampires, Cyborgs, and Ninjas Edition
Got a question you want answered? Just drop me an email with "Q & A" in the subject line!

"Why exactly is Sam not wearing any sort of disguise? I mean, it's obvious that people recognise him for who he is in this city, and 2 people have already called him out. As far as I can tell, Sam isn't that stupid. After going to all the trouble to make a new identity, isn't it kinda obvious that you shouldn't come looking exactly like the guy you're trying not to be?
" -William

This might have become more obvious since you first sent me this question, but: Sam isn't wearing a disguise because he doesn't have to wear a disguise! As far as the law is concerned, he's a different person now... such is the all-reaching power of the committee. (As we've seen before with Mr. Sin.) He is legally untouchable, at least as far as his past life is concerned, so no matter how many people recognize him, he can't be arrested for anything the "old" him did.

Now, if Sam was looking for a fresh start, then sure, he'd probably throw on a disguise and try to start a new, unrecognizable life. But I don't think Sam is looking for a fresh start. I think he's looking to pick up exactly where he left off, and flaunt his ability to do so in a bitter and sarcastic fashion.

"I couldn’t help to notice, that you drew Fuzzy as the Tequila monster from Questionable Content… and I know you guys are webcomic-friends so… my question is… who copied who?... I mean, I’ve heard some stories about web comics using the tequila monster… but never knew who really invented it… (other than the tequila god itself of course…)" -Avael

The tequila monster is all Jeph's! Fuzzy was strictly temporarily filling-in for the real tequila monster. The idea was suggested in the livestream chat while I was doing the "New Jobs" Sketch-Off, and since Jeph is one of my oldest webcomic bros, I thought it'd be a fun thing to do. And it was!

"Have you ever considered adding hilarious alt-text to the comic, like with Dr. McNinja?" -Harold

It's not something that's set up in my current archive system... but we are in the process of building a brand new Sam and Fuzzy site! (HONEST!) So maybe... in the future!
