Happy 2012! I hope you had a great holiday season. We took it way slow on our end, because of the big trip to Germany in November. Let’s hope the new year brings some improvement to this game we call the comics industry..
Got this message from a reader:
Hey Keefe, did you see that you made this guy’s list of the 10 funniest comic strips of 2011?
Congrats!
–M.
The question I ask of you dear readers, is which were your top Knight Life comic strips of the year? I need to know cuz I enter them into the year-end cartoon contests and lose every year..but mebbe if YOU pick ‘em.

*CARTOON ART MUSEUM EVENT w/ STEPHAN PASTIS
I will be taking the stage with Pearls Before Swine creator Stephan Pastis at the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco, to celebrate the opening of Black and White and Read All Over: Comic Strips in the New Millennium, an exhibition of strips that we’re launched in this century. Details about it are here.
There are two said things about the exhibit: One is that Piers Baker had to give up doing the Ollie and Quentin strip because of a shortage in clients. The other is you won’t find one newspaper here in the U.S. that runs every one of the great strips in this exhibition.
Here’s your chance to have your favorite gentleman cartoonist draw YOU in his daily comic strip, the Knight Life! Charity Auctions is conducting a fundraiser for the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco. Highest bidder gets the chance to be skewered in the nationally syndicated comic strip. I’ll even give you the original! Makes an excellent and super unique holiday gift!! Auction ends this Friday!!
Go here to bid: http://www.charityauctionstoday.com/auction_details.php?auction_id=148524
It’s that time of year again. Time for the annual Holla-Day Keef Kommssions! This is your chance to get an original commissioned drawing of anything by your favorite gentleman cartoonist, for the low-low price of $100!!
Drawings are produced on 9×12 bristol board, with archival black ink, suitable for framing. It makes a perfect holiday gift for that special someone (yourself!), so contact the artist (me) at keef@kchronicles.com and shake him down for some art!
I’ll draw anything! Wolverine in a diaper!! The local Occupy protest!! Your Aunt Sophie! Try me!!
(Please note that the drawings are for non-commercial use. You can post it as your avatar, but you can’t use it as your band’s album cover..sorry!)
