My, my my, I sure didn't have big printruns in the early part of Century 21. A whopping 15 copies of Monkey Trap chugged out of my little copier on Feb. 20, 2001 (3 blue, 3 yellow, 3 pink, 3 red, 3 green).
The 1st Danger Room Reprint Ed. in June 2005 had 5 copies (4 blue, 1 yellow).
This was my last comic before the big earthquake on Feb. 28, 2001. Perhaps it was an omen?
The original art might still be hidden somewhere in my cluttered studio, but who knows? Perhaps I'll don a pith helmet and explore the place this year. Anyway, I think the comic was drawn with a mixture of #1 lead pencil and felt tip. I'm guessing all the printed images were enlarged from very tiny originals.
The idea of just starting right into the story, without a traditional comic cover, appealed to me. And having the title added as an afterthought made it almost seem like a punchline.
I still have wait several more years before I know what this comic is about. But I still like it.
