Sam's Origin part 2...

So here we are...another update further into the "Origin" story arc of Horntoad Sam Weekly. Go ahead and read the strip first... I'll wait until you're done...


So to further the details on this and last week's strip, here are some more information:

Last week's strip - 

Panel three - Legends & Myth #1 by Resurrected Worlds (me) is truly non-existant unless you can find the 100 copies still floating around in people's possession.

Panel four - Deadbeat Comix #'s 2 & 3 by Blacksheep Productions (Leo Garcia). Not sure if this guy is still around doing these comics, but he was a swell guy to add some Horntoad Sam shorts into his books. If you would like to read the actual pages of the comics, go here. If you know this guy, let me know what his email is...

This week's strip - 

Panel two - Bloodshed: Lunatic's Fringes by Damage! Comics (Gerard Sanchez & Lionel Ordaz). Horntoad Sam appeared in this book as a fan of the Bloodshed Comics...or rather comics in general. This short story was actually a parody of one their books and you can read the five pages here.

Panel three - Horntoad Sam the Online Comic by Livewired Studios (me again). Currently, I have taken down the website that the comics were on, mainly due to the story being redone for print. Eventually, I may consider reopening the online comics ;)

Panel four - Horntoad Sam #1: ECCC 2011 Special. With a print-run of 100 copies, this book was brought to Emerald City Comicon in 2011. I have few copies left--if interested, please don't hesitate to message me down below!

From here on out...

Horntoad Sam Weekly - The strips seen on this address, will continue to be updated on a weekly basis with a special for each month. 

Horntoad Sam - The printed books. I'm working on it...

Our Father, Who ...

So, it's Father's Day. Jason Snyder really saved my butt, this time around on this particular short. I'm playing catch-up on some deadlines, and didn't even realize that Father's Day was RIIIIIGHT around the dang corner! It would be this past Friday (2 days ago) and when it finally dawned on me, I quickly texted Jason, a writer, who, I would (almost) work exclusively with. I told him a half-assed idea of keeping it simple but I was actually typing out of my bung-hole.

Jason swept in and saved the day. The sad thing is, it's really too bad that I can't make him do the art as well eh? heh...

Horntoad Sam Weekly #24 - Origins

This is part one of two of the abridged version of Horntoad Sam's origin.


Now that you've read the strip, a note: Don't ask if I have any copies left of Legends & Myths as seen above. I have none. This photo was actually taken by my sister who was kind enough to not only send me the photo, but also made a scan of the first appearance of Horntoad Sam *in print*. There were roughly 400 copies of the book made through my high school and I sold (and gave away about a hundred of them (or so). I burned the rest. It really wasn't that great and once I did that, it was a heavy burden unloaded (emotionally and physically). I'm sad that I didn't keep a few copies, at least for myself. Ah well...

I decided to go ahead and post this strip a day ahead of schedule due to the hectic day we'll have tomorrow. In the meantime, the Origin Saga continues....
