It’s Thanksgiving on the Island and once again Locke proves that simply being “special” won’t save your life!
I hope everyone is having a happy holiday week! For me, Thanksgiving is about spending time with my family, enjoying good food, and playing lots and lots of video games. Even if you don’t live in the states I hope you can enjoy those things, too. Happy Holidays everybody!
Awwwww Vincent! Today, Profiles in History kicks off “LOST the Official Show Auction” in which all that remains of the LOST costumes and props will be sold to the highest bidder.
Part of me thinks all this stuff belongs on display at a museum or someplace classy like Disneyland. Then again I’m happy that they will go to die hard losties. Believe you me, if I lacked a wife with common sense there is not any length I would not go to in order to snatch up everything in the catalog. I would dig the biggest hole of debt imaginable! I would be poor, but I would have my LOST things and could die crazy happy.
Thank goodness for Gandhi who reminds us that happiness comes not from things but the pride we feel from the hard work that we do. And so I make comics. This makes me happy. Happier than having the Namaste photo or Sawyer’s letter on my wall. At least that’s what I’ll keep telling myself.
*Want to win a fancy art print of this comic? Read on!*
Every now and then, in between the more zany strips, I’m going to illustrate my favorite moments from LOST. Jack and Locke staring down the hatch is totally one of those.
Let’s kick this mini-series off with a CONTEST!
I am giving away a wicked full-color art print of this comic on beautiful velvet cotton rag paper.
To participate is easy! Just leave a comment on this comic. After a week, on Wednesday June 30, I’ll literally put all the comments in a hat and randomly draw one. If i draw your name you win! See. Easy right?
So get commenting! Of course you can also buy a print of this or any of the LOST comics. And for every print sold I will plant a tree. No really!
P.S. Multiple comments are awesome, but will only be counted once. International friends are welcome, too!
UPDATE! (6/24) Thanks SO much everyone!! Reading your comments is amazing. I love you all! Maybe we should make this contest a reoccurring thing! I’m down if you are.
To answer some of the questions that have come in…
The deadline for the contest is the moment the next comic goes up, which is next Wednesday. So until then keep them coming! I will post the lucky winner here on the blog and get in touch over email. If you’re not following the RSS or Twitter already now is a great time to start!
Boone kinda always played Boo-Boo to Locke’s Yogi. Poor Boone. With his awful hair and crazy eyes. It was rad to see him pop up in the finale.
And Dharma must have been doing some wicked mad science on Hydra Island to make bears talk!
A few years ago one of my best pals phoned me up from comic-con. He had somehow just wrangled defenseless Damon Lindelof into a corner for a nice chat. Mostly comics talk. The best part for me was that Damon confirmed a bunch of our theories about LOST including the Watchmen/X-Men references. It’s probably common knowledge now, but for a couple of nerds from Utah it was an awesome validation at the time.
Can you guess Damon Lindelof’s favorite comic was while growing up? Watchmen. His second favorite? X-Men
Here we go! Season 6 premiered tonight, so what better time for a LOST doujinshi webcomic to hit the block? Things will get a little prettier around here as I figure out wordpress, but till then the comics come first! I’ll keep these coming at least once a week. So fire up that RSS!
Kicking things off with one for the daddies. Most daddies get no love in LOST. Whatever happened to daddy getting the big piece of chicken? Maybe at Charlie’s house. Enjoy!
