Pintsize
Whoops! Here it is, Q and A Friday, and what did I do? I left town for a couple of days without remembering to bring my archive of Q and A questions with me! Whoooops!
I hate to leave you in the lurch, though, so here's a slightly different piece of insider info: a page I wrote about Pintsize's slightly altered S&F universe design, and how I tried to tweak him look a little more at home among the clunkier, more appliance-esque, less Apple-sleek robots of Megalopolis 01. (I originally wrote this for last month's issue of Sam and Fuzzy Extra -- a PDF e-magazine I send out to $5+ Patreon backers each month that I stuff with a mix of bonus art and behind-the-scenes prattling on.)
We return on Monday, friends, for our next comic and also hopefully some news about NEW BOOKS. Hold on to your butts!

New swag now available
The relentless march of time lurches ever forward, my friends. And you know what that means... it means new swag for the holiday season. I designed a bunch of fun new stuff back in October, and today it has arrived. Behold:
"Overkill is One of My Many Modes" is an aggressive re-imagining of a long-gone classic S&F shirt, resurrected in honour of our recent robot-centric story. "I'm Out", on the other hand, is a totally new shirt that (I think) very accurately something we'd all like to do from time to time. I'm very fond of both of these designs... I like the way they depict almost polar opposite emotional reactions to unexpected problems. I think I've been feeling a mix of both of these lately.
In the shop, you will also find three new poster prints: Is It Food, Corgi's Adventure, and a new poster version of Vote Dog. I had these at cons throughout the summer, and people seemed to like them, so here they are on the internet as well!
I hope that you enjoy these things -- I had a lot of fun making them. You can nab them all at Topatoco, an excellent website run by good people.
We return on Friday with a new comic and a new round of Q and A. See you then!

Farewell, sweet Hippo
Well, that's enough burlesque antics at the Saucy Hippo for now! Er, if you can call jokes about chicken suits "burlesque antics". (If you're looking for actual burlesque antics, there's always Headcanon II, or the pin-up vault on my Patreon, both of which are full of them. And if you're looking for more chickens... I'll see what I can do?)
On Wednesday, we return to Sam, Fuzzy, the Buddy Bears, and the 'bots over in Megalopolis 01. You should definitely come back for that! What it lacks in burlesque veneer it makes up for in, uh... chrome finish.
