Round 11

A Word From One of the Creators

From the desk of Eric Ratcliffe

This was me taking a huge risk as a comedy writer as well as an overall creator. Bill, Chad and Lisa all laughed at it, which made me smile a lot.

The thing with this one panel, one joke strip is that it is my love letter to a few different things to pop culture. The Carol Burnett Show as Bill and I may be Abbot and Costello, but we are also very much a certain duo from those days. Tim Conway and Harvey Korman. Yes I know it's another show that surprises people when I speak about it so highly but it's another one that my day showed me when I was a kid. Comic me is very obviously the Tim Conway of our world.

Another thing it's a nod to is actually my favorite Tom Cruise movie The Last Samurai as well as Hiro's journey in season 2 of Heroes. It's also the start of comic me's real big love of wearing different costumes.

So what's next? Well in 7 days you can join us for Bill's biggest fear of comic Eric. And then in 14 starts the biggest and first real major arc for new comic book day. Next week I'll reveal the name, see you in 7!
