INVADER ZIM Fact #6

Focus groups watching INVADER ZIM.

So I checked out the site stats for the past few days and it looks like these ZIM posts are pretty popular with the people who have an internet.  Also fascinating is that yesterday’s post that had almost nothing to do with ZIM at all was the least popular.  Do you know how that made me feel?  Do you?  It made me feel terrible, because it made me feel like you only like me for my sweet tits when I have  so many other qualities to offer.

Check this shit out!

SEATTLE COMICON – I’m going, ya see?

COMICS! GAMES! FUN! SCREEEEEEEEE!!!

I probably should’ve mentioned this earlier, but if you’re in the Seattle area, or anywhere on the planet regardless of distance, and not a horrible person, just know that I’ll be at the Slave Labor Graphics booth at the Emerald City Comicon in…well…a few days, I guess.

March 13-14, to be precise.

Joining me will be J.R. Goldberg, artist on Jellyfist and all around swell person.

J.R. Goldberg and myself.

Currently, Goldberg and I are trying to get her brand new screenprinting operation to be operational, and hopefully I’ll have some fine screenprinted things to sell to your greedy little faces.  If I don’t well, we’ll all be sorry, I think, but you can blame Goldberg in that case.

In case you’re wondering how my adventures will affect the ZIM FACT posts, well, it’ll probably make it difficult to be as prompt, or as detailed as they’ve been thus far, but I’ll do what I can.  Been drawing like a loony and as much fun as it is sharing the hard cold truth bits with the world, I have to make sure other stuff gets done first!

INVADER ZIM Fact #5

I once blinded a kid with Fritos to escape a fight.

Hey, remember a few days ago when we were at whatsisface’s and we were talking about recurring dreams and I told you about the ones I’ve been having for maybe a month now? Yeah, well I had another one of those. Yeah, it’s getting pretty spooky how persistent they are.

INVADER ZIM Fact #4

That's me when I was really into soup, apparently

Here’s the scene.  I’m running.  Not running a marathon, not out for a jog and not in one of those moods where I’m terrified of getting old and decide to just frantically use my legs because I still can and oh god the wind feels good on my face and I never want to shit my pants and cry while remembering what it was like to only shit my pants when I wanted to.

No I’m running for my incredible life, and the look on my face is that of a man who knows the zombie dog right on his ass is right on his ass but is too afraid to turn around to confirm for fear that to behold the thing would be to lose one’s mind, giving up not only their nerve but their very life.  Just one thing:  there is no zombie dog.  There is simply the person chasing me asking “How did you come up with the show Invader ZIM?!”

INVADER ZIM Fact #3

Your typical Hot Topic store in the mall.

The response to these posts has been a bit more energetic than I was expecting, and that’s cool, but I can’t help but think of the people out there who are surely irritated that I am relating details that they feel are anything but entirely accurate.  You can just picture them at their computers, lit only by their monitors there in the closet that their parents have locked them away in for fear that someone will be made aware of just what a spectacular failure as parents they really are, angrily typing away, suspicious that they are being denied the hard, cold facts that will COMPLETE THEIR LIVES.
