Stripes Halloween Special 2006

Don't worry, that gun's not loaded.

PS - It took me forever to draw all those #@$% costumes...

#8 - Crimson Morons

Stripes #8 (10-31-06)

I was half expecting The Crimson to leave this strip out, but on purpose this time. They put it in.

#7 - Quod Erat Demonstrandum

Stripes #7 (10-27-06)

Note the new panel frames, plus it's my mom's birthday today!

#6 - Internet Addiction

Stripes #6 (10-26-06)

I really like this strip. It's different.

#5 - Pretty Lady

Stripes #5 (10-22-06)

Awkward and, sadly, based on a conversation with a friend.

#4 - POT

Stripes #4 (10-19-06)

Referencing illegal drugs always makes good comedy. This isn't the last you've seen of it, folks.

#3 - Quaded

Stripes #3 (10-17-06)

Towards the end of their first year, Harvard freshmen are sorted into an upperclassmen House where they'll live for the next three years of college. There's no Sorting Hat, but it's an exciting event for everyone.

There are some Houses by the Charles River and three Houses up at the Quad. Many freshmen are scared to get "Quaded" because it's a ten-minute walk, but honestly those kids are just wimps. The Quad isn't that bad.

Nevertheless, this is pretty much what happened to my blocking group when we found out we were Quaded. We love it now, though!

Just a friendly reminder that Stripes has moved to Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.

#2 - Sunshine

Stripes #2 (10-12-06)

Poor Cubby.

Not all of the strips are inspired by my life, but this one certainly is. I've never had severe depression, but my orgo TF randomly started calling me "Sunshine." Everyone thought it was a scream, so it stuck. I don't really mind the name (it grows on you) but it is a little awkward when you're walking through the Science Center and suddenly someone yells "HEY SUNSHINE!"

#1 - The Aspiring Cartoonist

Stripes #1 (10-11-06)

Stripes is here! This was the last of six strips I submitted to The Crimson when I applied to become a cartoonist, and I felt it was the best one to start off the series. Stay tuned...!
