Editorial Cartoon: .XXX Marks the Spot

So it looks like all of us looking for photos of the White House on the web who accidentally went to .com instead of .gov are saved.  A new domain extension is in the works that will end in .xxx and be specific to adult oriented sites.

One one hand you have the adult industry against it because they feel it will ghettoize porn on the web.  On the other you have conservative groups against it because they feel it will legitimize porn on the web.  But one of the funniest arguments I have seen is that the practice will actually make it easier for kids to find porn on the web.  As if kids had trouble in the past.

Editorial Cartoon: BP’s New Marketing Strategy

I’M BACK!!!  After a much deserved break, I am making my triumphant return today.  Thanks again to all my guest cartoonists and commenters who kept things going in my absence.

Movie Poster – Dressed for Success & Scapula

To finish out the guest cartoons we are doing a double post.  First up is Dress for Success from Chris Howard and Jeff Wason.  Dress for Success is a story arc comic that doesn’t feel like a long form comic as the writers keep the dialogue to a minimum or don’t bother using any at all.  Check out the archives to go through the story.  Here is how Chris describes it:

Dressed For Success is the story of Alex Corbett and Walter Andrewkowski, two guys thrown together by chance, now making their way in a crazy universe one adventure at a time. All the while trying to stay one step ahead of the mafia and with the hopes of turning a profit. Begun in the 90′s during the Indie boom, DFS is back on the web and ready for new adventures. As with our earlies stories, we produced a series of movie parody posters. Most were just for fun and to tease people before we started our new story, but the Crystal Skull poster was actually the title page for our first new story, Mississauga Jay and the Lost Shrine of the Osars. The Hangover parody proved very popular, and could lead into an actual story in the future. Alex and Walter have traveled back in time once already, and an even more convoluted messed up time story with Philip, (the guy in the back) helping them wouldn’t be out of the question. The baby Mafia alien is a total wild card. 

All the parody posters are viewable here: http://egestacomics.com/parody-posters/

Rounding out the Guest Movie Posters we return to Aidan Casserly of Scapula fame in his rendition of Scapula ala The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Thanks to all my Guest Cartoonists for helping out during my break.  Hope you readers have enjoyed it.

Movie Poster – Roland Perez of Metal Jaw Comics

 Today’s Guest Cartoon Movie Poster comes from Roland Perez (navy man) of Metal Jaw Comics.   Now if you don’t immediately get what movie Roland is spoofing, click here for the original.  I remember seeing posters for this movie but have never actually seen Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead.   The story is to expand the exploits of two minor characters in Shakespeares play Hamlet.  I hate Shakespeare so I am going to have to take your word that this is a good movie Roland (even if it is a spoof)

Rolands comic Z&G focuses on a Zombie and a Ghost.  Isn’t it cool how he was able to include the cartoon logo in his spoof of the movie.

Check back on Thursday for a guest cartoon from Chris Howard of Dressed for Success.
