Oh! Also! Napkins! [08 May 2008|02:10pm]
I was so busy updating about beards, I forgot about this strange Post project.
They gave me a notebook made of napkins and I had to fill them all for a spread, which was neat. I filled it in one morning so the results weren't all grand, but here are a few that are suitable for YOUR EYES.







Love,
Chip!

Extremely Bad Advice & an Open Letter to John Krasinski [08 May 2008|12:52pm]
LOL! It's Bad Advice!



In response to last week's column, I called around trying to get in touch with John Frasinski, aka "Jim" from The Office. I made my way through several agencies until I was stopped by his PR rep who said his schedule was too busy to accommodate me. Whatever. I mailed the letter anyway.

As always, send me your problems. I love your problems.

And I love you.

Behind My Scenes [05 May 2008|10:49am]
Free Comic Book Day was lovely. I drew a Fat Batman and also a Garfield Batman so, yeah, it was a good time, duh.

I know sometimes people want to see "behind the curtain" at the "troll magic" that artists wield when making "art." So, with that in mind, here is my layout for the Iron Man spread.



MAGICAL.

In other news, Uncle Melvin is blogging again with his good friends. Charlie Fergus especially is a young spirit ready to rock your world.

Send questions in and I will answer them, Bad Advice style!

Extremely Bad Advice About Big Butts [24 Apr 2008|10:01am]
This week I loudly proclaim my love of big butts, thus securing my reputation as "creepy office guy" at the Post. I just really, really like butts. Big 'uns.



The question bucket is getting low, so if anyone out there needs burning questions answered with tact and finesse and fire, drop me a line!

Love,
Chip!

Oodles of Doodles, Etc. and the TTC strike [18 Apr 2008|10:14am]
Transit strike!

If this happens then I'm being assigned to the cartooning transit-strike beat, where I wander the city with my faithful lawyer/reporter/sidekick Zosia and we cover the SITUATION. We did this before with the Grey Cup and it was the kind of week where I racked up enough overtime to take a full week off, which is crazy and awesome at the same time. So, if my Toronto peeps(people) have any suggestions(do my work for me) I'd appreciate them!

Dreamy [16 Apr 2008|10:26am]
This was in the paper today, or I should say that a version where they cut it in close on the characters' heads was in the paper today. I swore quite loudly in the newsroom, but no one was here yet because I came in early for my "scream time."

Anyhoo, here's the full version! It was for an article about the websites I Dream of Barack and I Dream of Hillary.
