My contribution follows this introduction and the participant links.

Thanks again to everyone who participated in the 18-hr comic event, either by contributing or by encouraging us along. CatGirl is the only one who achieved the main goal of 18-pages in 18 hours, and hopefully she will post them so that you all can see what amazing work she did. Others also produced some fine work. If you continue to work on your comics, or if you decide to take the challenge on your own time, please submit the link to me and I’ll be happy to enter it below.

I’m doing it, too, but I just started–had to work this morning. I didn’t get any preparations done, either, due to a Halloween costume. So I’m just grabbing a pencil and paper. Ready, set, go.

This is going to take a lot longer than I thought.

I have written the first ten pages and will now start drawing. If you can call it that. (Can we tell I am more comfortable with writing??)

John, I LOOOOOVE yours. I love it. I was bad and gave up on mind partway through and just ended up doodling little pictures all day, but yours is so good! I really want to see how it finishes up.

I want to do this next time! I thought you had to actually draw your own comic artwork, which would have been a comedic disaster for me. Even my stick figures are embarrassed of their crummy appearances.

Awesome John. So much thought-provokingness.
