davemerrillOur Stupid Comic this week is a short story that appeared in an anthology of furry comics, and it's about the terrible tragedy that befell mankind when one of our most talented and beloved spiritual leaders was cruelly struck down in the prime of his life.
Yes, Poppa Bear, Jerry Garcia, leader pro tem of the Grateful Dead Incorporated Entertainment Conglomerate Limited, departed from our spiritual plane in 1995. What better way to express your sorrow than a furry comic? Along the way our little story gets in a few digs at how MUCH MORE awful Jerry's death is than the deaths of other public figures of lesser importance. Get in a few snide digs at that awful 'Generation X' along with the furries today at Stupid Comics!
This is the first Stupid Comic where I might actually have met someone involved, although years and years ago. Sorry man, nothing personal, it's just business.
Not to be callous at celebrity death, but this comic is so over the top brimming with baby boomer generation attitude - that Our Heroes of the Psychedelic Era were Way More Important than any previous, or any that would later come, that Our Woodstock Nation was the most important fifteen minutes of time ever and those who missed out are just jealous - the sanctimonious, welfare-check-cashing, patchouli-scented, blissed-out losers too stoned to realize that standing around barefoot in a muddy field listening to a forty-five minute version of 'Fire On The Mountain' isn't changing the universe, except for the various small parasitical worms currently entering the open sores on your feet, it's changing their universe plenty.
Also, and this is in no way connected, there's a great whack more Peter Sellers comedy at Found Sound. So go here and get Seller'd!
I had a big whack of time off and now I'm back to work, I work tomorrow, and also Sunday, and then Monday I'm back on my regular schedule again. So I'm kind of punchy right now and expect to be so pretty much throughout the upcoming week. PEACE, MAN.

It's kinda sorta part Shirow, part John Ringo, a dash of Ben Dunn, some cribbing from the Twilight 2000 RPG with a smattering of John Woo and Stanley Kubrick.
Dude's art kept improving too. Then he got a Mac and started to really go wild. :)
