BONNIE: Honey, Baby, Sweetie.
We have to talk about this habit of yours.
JOHN: “Comin’ up ta me/ Pickin’ up my hand/ She looks real serious an’ I do not unnerstan'”

JOHN: “What…does…she got to say/ Sittin’ in the…middle of the…
month of May”
BONNIE: You make up these SONGS. All the time. All day long.
And they are not good songs. Not by any measure known to man.
You are not Wayne Brady, my love.

JOHN: “Month of May” was ACTUALLY a minor 1962 hit by the Indiana group THE CALENDAR LADS.
It was a B-side on their single “Labor Day, And I’m A-sweatin'” which reached about #8 on the local charts.
But that probably didn’t get a lot of airplay around where you grew up.

BONNIE: Also, you LIE.
PATHOLOGICALLY.
JOHN: You’re trying to paint this as some sort of CHARACTER FAILING, but I HAVE the LP!

20 years ago (in photocomic form)

June 9, 2026 by David Malki !

The computers tell me it was 20 years ago, June 9, 2006, that I arrived in New York for my first-ever comic convention as an exhibitor, MoCCA.

It was an important trip for me, a milestone in what would go on to become my career.

I wrote a little reminiscence on Patreon (free/unlocked) — including a first-since-then reprint of the photocomics I made at the time, documenting the trip!
