Here’s
a blast from the past! This strip’s from 2008– about the perils of time travel.

For those who use the SHELDON forums or have SHELDON comics delivered to them, here is how you sign up to have DRIVE comics delivered to you:

1.) Using your existing SHELDON username and password, log in HERE. (…..Note: Don’t re-register or create a new account: Just sign in with your exact SHELDON login).

2.) Once logged in, you’ll need to check the little box that says “I would be interested in receiving stuff via email”.

3.) Click the “save” button, below.

4.) After clicking save, a new checkbox will appear that says “comic”. Check that box as well, and click “save” one more time.

This should be the definitive how-to. But if you’re still having trouble, do drop me a line.

the magic of modern science, powered by the mystery of pug energy levels.

Here’s
a strip from today in 2008 about confusing pug noises..

Thank you so much to all the Washingtonians, Oregonians, Canadians (…and the one Aussie!) who came out to this past weekend’s Emerald City Comicon in Seattle. It’s such a fantastic event, and I can’t wait for it every year. In fact, a huge “thank you” has to go out to Jim Demonakos and the entire ECCC crew for putting together one of the best comics shows going: You all do a wonderful, wonderful job.

And thank you to every Sheldonista (and tons of new Drive readers!) who came out to the show. You guys made the weekend for me. So many awesome conversations, so many nice gifts of Hobnobs, so many fun sketch requests. Below, you can see all the pics that readers sent me after the show, as well as some of the choicer sketches.

Thanks again!

talks about his wife, but it’s always hard to communicate those kinds of things.

After yesterday’s post about the nice io9 article, I got three separate e-mails from readers saying “…Hey! I nominated DRIVE for a Hugo Award.” Which kinda took me aback, as I didn’t even know DRIVE was eligible. But I just read the rules, and apparently it is!

So! If you’re eligible to nominate and vote in the Hugos, know that book one “DRIVE: A Hero Rises”, is eligible for the Best Graphic Story category.

Now, let’s be honest: You and I both know that Phil and Kaja Foglio of the brilliant Girl Genius will *win*. But it’d be neat just to sit next to them and breathe in their talented vapors. 🙂

…and thanks to those who nominated DRIVE, already! That was a real kindness for a cartoonist who didn’t even know how these things worked!

Here’s
a little sneak peak at the watering hole in 2003! Hark! Moby Dick was found!
