OverGround Alternative of Sorts

AT THE BEGINNING of September Belgrade - Serbia - was blessed with the presence of distinguished visitors - the incomparable Mr. Robert Crumb and Gilbert Shelton, Esq. - with their gorgeous spouses, Aline Kominsky-Crumb and Lora Fountain.

The Underground/Alternative Comix royalty came a bit earlier than the start of the 10th International Comics Salon, Belgrade ...

... but nevertheless, Serbia's capital was ... well, keeping on trucking the whole week, between 3rd & 9th September 2012.

Instead of showing off with the SMASHING elaborate drawing Mr. Crumb did for me (let's face it: I don't want my Blogspot shut down and me arrested and banned for life by Google) I'm sharing the modest cartoon I tried to execute in the drawing manner of The Man, stretching a bit the credibility of one of the dialogues we've had on an occasion. Drawn with the modest gel-ink roller pen that I gave to him as a souvenir (he liked the fact that I've inked some of my actual comics pages along with brush and ink with the very pen) and shared first @ FaceBook.

Salut.

Happy First Birthday, Kitty-Doll!



AND AN ERA comes to the end...

No, Pissy Pussy is NOT discontinued - after full year of 52 Sunday pages drawn by Yours Truly, the intrepid beauty is going under someone else's pencil and brush whilst I am to concentrate on her longer adventures in complete, graphic novelette format.

The show goes on.
