Catchin' Up On Reader Mail...
Tuesday, December 02, 2008 - 12:59 AM
Time to share some reader e-mail from around the world! I've been slow in sharing all the pics, links, and stories folks send me -- my apologies for that. I get a lot of e-mail every day, and I respond to every single e-mail I get...but that usually means I don't have time to *share* the funny ones with everyone else. But I'll try to catchup over the next few weeks. Anyway....
to the mailbag!
1.) Sheldonista John U. writes in that Brigitte loved her birthday gift of Sheldon Original Art, and has added it to their collection. And dang! Based on that wall in the background, it's a growing collection! Anyway, I'm so glad you like it, Brigitte!

2.) South African Sheldon reader and fellow pug owner Leighann sends in an awesome pic of her two pugs Aldo and Lucy. I love this shot of them at the beach:

3.) Adam M. sent in this pic of his pug "Rosie" getting a copy of Pugs: God's Little Weirdos for her birthday. Adam writes, "Your strip inspired me to get my pug, who has been a bundle of joy, energy and hassle in my life." I apologize wholeheartedly, Adam, for the pug hair that is no doubt everywhere in your home, now. 'Tis the downside of owning a pug. But on the bright side, Rosie looks awesome.

4.) Sheldonista David M. sent in a great shot of his Sheldon Original Art all framed up (...and specially presented on the floor, apparently?). The black frame with white matte is a nice choice:

5.) Also, Isaac J. sent in a great link, settling once and for all who would win in a "Star Trek vs. Star Wars" battle.
Thanks again to everyone who's taken the time to write. I really, really enjoy hearing back from folks -- and not just when I misspell "onomatopoeia" or "Pangea" in the strip. So thank you!

Now I won't send you any pictures of my originals.
They're much to dully presented compared to these superfans ...

Wow, Brigitte has a Sunday strip in colour?? I thought your originals were in black-and-white. Nifty!

I don't think the color strip is a Sheldon, iArthur. I'd be curious to know what it is, though.

(Technical question):
Have posts been disappearing from this thread? I could've sworn I read one or two other ones that are now gone, as well as having posted myself. Very odd!

Oh. It looked like this one to me: http://www.sheldoncomics.com/archive/050904.html
Maybe a colour printout, nicely framed? :)

Yeah, I'm also curious as to how Brigitte got a colorized Sunday strip. According to the info posted on the "purchase today's strip" link under the Sunday strips, the strip is drawn in B&W and then colorized on the computer, so the original Sunday strips are B&W. I would purchase a Sunday strip or two if they were colorized.
Brigitte or John U., if you are reading this, could you enlighten us? Thanks!

I'm framing my art over Christmas break as I want to do it in a shadow box.
I love my original art - I coveted it a loooong time before I finally took the plunge, now I treat it better than the Mona Lisa.
