Five days of straight updates and where do I lead you? Right into the gaping maw of a cliffhanger! MU-HA-HA-HA-HA!
Everything that’s been going on this week has led up to this moment. The change of scenery. The carefully timed positioning. A culmination that pits Cami against Charlie in a situation where neither one can walk away from each other. There’s gonna be some CONFLICT RESOLUTION, kiddies. Next week, it’s goin’ DOWN!
All the way down… to Chinatown.
Okay, maybe not Chinatown. But they’re gonna clear the air. That’s what happens next, okay?
Hey, everyone! Thanks for voting for Theater Hopper at buzzComix yesterday when I asked so politely. You guys got us over the hump! We’re in the number two spot! We’re only about 30,000 votes away from The Order of the Stick, but I think we can close the gap!
Sheesh. The numbers that dude puts up. You’d think he had a small country voting for him!
Anyway, not much to report. Pretty thin weekend for new films and I’m pretty much caught up on all the Oscar-bait films released over the holiday.
I’ve been hearing good things about Assault on Precinct 13. Mostly, I think, because people are going in with pretty low expectations. But I doubt I’ll see this one in the theater. Action flicks just aren’t my thing, man.
Then, of course, there’s that whole Ethan Hawke problem. Specifically, I don’t like him. Or that rat fart across his face that he calls a goatee. Sorry. Just a personal preference.
I don’t really think I can top the “rat fart/goatee” comparison, so I’m gonna wrap things up there. I can walk away from this blog with a sense of accomplishment.

When last we saw Victor, he was in a pretty good place, emotionally speaking. He had let his feelings for Tom be known and Tom let him down easy.
Seeing Cami on his turf, however, stoked competitive feelings in Victor. Feelings, as you can see in this comic, he finally decided to let go of.
For those of you worried that I’m dipping back into melodrama, don’t worry. This is a momentary lapse. But I needed to bring Victor back on the scene to usher in the last act.
I would have like to do more comics about The Avengers, but with only two months to go, I need to move things along a little faster. Jokes will have to be sacrificed for plot progression. Although there will be some call-backs to a few things along the way that I think you guys will find amusing.
Sorry the comic is a little late, by the way. Cami and I had a huge multi-family garage sale over the weekend and it left us wiped out on Sunday. We got rid of a lot of stuff, but we still had to clean up, sort and organize what was left to take to Goodwill. It was over, but it wasn’t really over, y’know? It was a lot of work.
Anyway, a quick announcement to make…
CALL FOR GUEST STRIPS
Seeing as there are only a few more weeks of Theater Hopper, I thought it might be fun to give some of you the opportunity to join in the fun.
Theater Hopper has had a long history of guest strips and fan art that has been displayed on the home page. All of these pieces are still available in the archive and I’ve always been proud to share them. So as things wind down, I thought it would be fun to put an open call out for guest strips.
There are very few criteria to participating. Images need to be 525 pixels wide, but can be as lengthy as you want. Keep the subject matter clean. No swearing, no over sexual stuff. Use your best judgement. Beyond that, do what you like.
Send whatever you put together to me at theaterhopper@hotmail.com and I’ll add it to the site. It’ll be a nice way to send things off and you can get your artwork in front of a few thousand people before the curtain call. It’s a win-win.
If you have any questions, send me an e-mail. Or you can write me on Twitter or Facebook. I’m pretty easy to get a hold of.
Thanks for your consideration and for your support. I’m looking forward to what you create!
That’s all for now. See you soon!
