Writing, editing, storytelling, and more from Jim Gibbons
I was reading a lot about webcomics on Friday at work and doodled this little strip while editing documents. In the strip, I run into Dave Paggi’s Pancake Lover—who you can see more of over at Rowdy Schoolyard—and have a webcomic encounter with him. This one’s done in amazing ballpoint pen on a super cool legal notepad.

Well, it’s late, but here it is: this week’s Enemy of Peanuts: The Webcomic installment!
I won’t lie, I think this may be my worst effort so far and was drawn after drinking a full bottle of wine, but there is an energy to it that I liked. So, I figured I would post it and keep the strip going, and at the worst I can always redo this panel at a future date.
Anyway, enough of my self deprecation…Please, enjoy the strip!

Though I haven’t posted here in the last two days, the Enemy of Peanuts (yours truly, Jim Gibbons!) has still been quite active on the interwebs.
Be forewarned, this post is about to be a little bit of a promotional link-a-thon, but an entertaining one! So, read on for some nice, brief stories and links.

When we last left our hero, he was doing some badass inner-monologueing as he trudged through a desert followed by a mysterious shadow. Let’s see what happens next, shall we?

I won’t claim to know much of anything about this whole swine flu thing, but—like everyone else, I’m sure—I keep hearing the name bandied about left and right. Anywho, a weird little concept spinning out of swine flu mania
…and if that doesn’t completely undersell it, then I don’t know what does?! I best just let it speak for itself and hopefully people get a few chuckles out of it.

Hey folks!
I’m going to start using jumps on my posts from here on out in hopes of a little more front page organization and a little less scrolling through some of my more massive posts when you really just want to get to the short one right after that. So, when you see the little orange text blurb at the end of a post on the front page that says, “Read the rest of this entry →,” click on it!
Try it out right now…

Last night I finally got a chance to sit down and finalize some of the storyboards I had been working on for Enemy of Peanuts: The Webcomic, so here’s the first two panels. I’m running a few different versions here because I still haven’t perfected much of anything (including my own artistic skills, so more versions put out means more chances to slightly impress someone, right?!). Right now, I’m shooting to deliver at least a few panels to a full sequence a week (anywhere from the meager two panels here on to five or seven bits of a fight scene), and I’ll try to post them each week on Sunday night or Monday.
Thanks for checking it out, folks! Any and all feedback is welcomed below!
I finished most all I’m going to read for this week, so here are my last reaction reviews on this week’s books…
Amazing Spider-Man
I can’t really gripe about anything here, nor can I say anything in this ish really excited me. I’ve been a big supporter on all ASM stuff since Brand New Day
Outsiders
Easily my favorite book coming out from DC right now, Peter Tomasi infuses tons of personality into a team of characters I didn’t care at all about till he took over, and Lee Garbett is just tops in my book—I love that guy’s art on anything and everything
