My initials follow me around. I was born in Spokane, Washington. SW. I live in Southwest Washington. SW. Storm Warnings. SW.
I'm not particularly fond of this comic, especially the Rainmaker story. Oddly, it seems to me that out of all my comix, this one is the most acceptable to fans of conventional comic books.
Trivia:
P. 3-4: Mr. Wright also appeared in Delayed Stress Syndrome Funnies.
P. 13: Mukey and porcupines. It doesn't get much better than this, one of the few bright and happy spots in this book. Notice Mukey has a Max Fleischer character type of nose here. He was still under construction.
P. 23: Hey, isn't that ... Brad Foster in that crowd? Why, yes, I think it is!
