Captain Jibidy 103

Wednesday's strip is up here. It features a gag I've wanted to include since I first saw the commercials for the Simpsons movie. Plus, does Marlo know The Lumberjack?

St Patty's Day

Go Irish and all that jazz (just not Notre Dame). I did a St Patty's day Jibidy back in 2005. Monty Python fans will hopefully notice an homage to the "What have the Roman's ever done for us?" speech from Monty Python.

Captain Jibidy 102

Read Monday's episode here. Will Marlo crack, and let the boys stay with her?

Don't forget, three new strips this week, so come back on Wednesday for #103.

Captain Jibidy 101

Read the issue here. I'm sure Marlo is going to love the idea of Jibidy and crew crashing at her place.

No comic this Saturday, but check out three (count 'em) issues of Jibidy next week. 102 drops on Monday, 103 on Wednesday, and 104 on Friday.

Which way to the smash bros kegger?

Captain Jibidy volume 1 now available!

That's right, all you piratical aficionados, strips 50-99 - featuring the full daring rescue and escape of Captain Jibidy and his crew from homicidal robots and vicious vikings - can now be a real live book for your coffee table, magazine rack, or comic book long box!

The book is available through the new ahoy-matey bookstore: http://stores.lulu.com/ahoymatey
You can order a full color print book there. I know it's a little pricey (hey, color printing isn't cheap!) so there is also a handy Adobe pdf version available for download. How much does that cost? What if I told you that I'd give it to you for three low payments of $0.00! That's right, the electronic version is free.

Why are you still here? Go get the comic! And check out Captain Jibidy #101 on Wednesday.

Captain Jibidy 100

Read the comic here. As you'll see, it's high time to get some much needed estrogen back in this comic.

In related Jibidy news, stay tuned to this blog for information on how you too can own your very own copy of Captain Jibidy vol 1. (A print collection of strips 50-99)

In unrelated music news - I've been experimenting a bit with itunes lately. I usually play new music to death and I decided to mix it up a little bit and sort my library by "last played", start at the bottom, and listen to all the music I haven't listened to for years (in some cases since 2004 or 2005). Here's a sampling of the gems that have cropped up:

Don Henley - End of Innocence
BNL - If I had a Million Dollars
Saliva - Click Click Boom
Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow - Picture
Defuser - Karma
Pinmonkey - Barbed Wire and Roses
Ja Rule - I Cry
Leeann Rimes - Can't Fight the Moonlight

I've got NO idea why these songs aren't on high rotation. Seriously.

New Jibidy coming Saturday

#100 still needs a little work - look for it this weekend.

Roundup - some good, some not

1. Brett Favre retires (ESPN) - Favre has been my favorite footballer as long as I've loved the game. Here's another great piece about him. We'll miss you Brett.

"Brett, we miss you already" (Also ESPN)

2. The co-creator of D&D passes away. I hope he was aligned lawful good. (CNN)

3. Liev Schreiber actually looks like Sabretooth (Page6)

Captain Jibidy 99

See it here: Captain Jibidy 99

This is a direct carry over from the last issue. So the line of dialogue at the top is the Consultant speaking to the Red Ninja. Anyways, that finished Volume 1 of the story. I tried to make 50-99 a pretty complete, kind of contained story. I hope you enjoy it. I decided the cast is a little too big, and some get lost in the shuffle. So, the next volume will be shorter (likely 100-125) and will focus on Jibidy, Pete, and Billy. Volume three will feature Jake, Lou, and Steve. Think of it as the Blue and Gold squads. Or not.

Issue 98

A face (albeit a masked one) from the past returns. Can you say buddy assassin film?

Issue 97

We're getting ever closer to 100! The original purpose here was to show the reunion between Jibidy and his parrot, Percy. Then I realized that Percy is in the background of issue 79. Oh well. The crew has been running around so much, no one's really sure what's going on. What ever happened to the Yeti?

The escape - it's almost over!

Only four more strips until volume 1 of Captain Jibidy is complete. Volume 2 is, of course, not started - so enjoy these new ones while they are hot!

So I should get rid of my old beta stuff?

Blu-ray is it: Toshiba to give up on HD DVD, end format war (Reuters)

Toshiba Corp is planning to give up on its HD DVD format for high definition DVDs, conceding defeat to the competing Blu-Ray technology backed by Sony Corp , a company source said on Saturday.

The move will likely put an end to a battle that has gone on for several years between consortiums led by Toshiba and Sony vying to set the standard for the next-generation DVD and compatible video equipment.


Doesn't change the fact that I can't afford a player, the discs, or an HDTV.

A healthy weekend dose of Cap'n Jibidy

Don't count the Consultant out yet:
