UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

    Some friction, but yeah. IRL, I’d like these two…they should have kids. 😉

      I might have to draw out what their kid would look like. First thought is that their kid would look like Ongo Gablogian from “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia”

    2. Scarsdale

      He’s pushing 60, she’s maybe 30, more likely less. Chuck is most likely shooting blanks, and besides, he’s talking to her like a baby sister than a love interest.

    It is really hard to have a favorite character, as there are so many good ones. But I think Rosa is my favorite. Chuck is a good accomplice in sneaking work, but not much for romance. Uugh.

    I mean, if they don’t have at least an inkling of what’s going down, I’m actually disappointed in Clearstream. If anything, I’m starting to wonder if they caught on and realized “Wait, we can use this.”

    Because of course they can. 😉

    I’m way ahead of you – I’ve been waiting for you to catch up. From November 2020:
    I would hope for nothing less – her and Chuck have the potential for a great deal of positive mischief.
    Speaking of which, I received the email notifying me that my order for the NSFW “Chuck and Rosa Finally Do It” (age verification required) limited edition hardcover is going to be delayed due to the pandemic. I think it’s really cool that you’ll be adding some additional stretch goal goodies when it ships – thanks for all your story and art.
    As for the inscription, ” We owe it all to you ” will be sufficient.

542 – Catching Up

Momentary diversions…

Posted on August 28, 2019 by Clint
There are certain limitations that come with the conceit of Zombie Ranch as a “show within a show” style of narrative, but there are benefits as well. One of the greatest of these is that I have the option, at almost any time I so choose, to digress from the current action into a side commentary in the form of the “A Moment With…” segments, where an out-of-sequence interview occurs with a character. The modern “mockumentary” style Zombie Ranch at times resembles–you know it if you’ve watched The Office or Parks & Rec–has almost constant asides like this as part of their storytelling, but in my opinion that sort of frequency doesn’t translate well to comics. A few seconds set aside for Jim Halpert to deadpan stare into the camera and tell the audience what he’s done to Dwight’s stapler takes up a lot more real estate in our format and is potentially far more disruptive. So even though the tool is at my disposal, I’ve used it very sparingly. This latest one with Oscar? It was time to talk about his lemon tree. You know, the lemon tree? Okay it’s been in my notes for years and the closest we got to it was him kicking back with a glass of lemonade on the Siege House balcony. But when Oscar alluded to how he tries to keep Frank alive it seemed a natural time to finally bring up his other long-running project, and so… A Moment is born.
