JORDAN: “I’ll solve your case, or the next one’s free!”

HUGO: Damascus! The Mayor’s crown jewels have been stolen!
JORDAN: Hmm! I’m certain that old baker Macready did it!

HUGO: BRILLIANT! But why? What would his motive be?
JORDAN: Most likely to power his croissant bakery with perpetually clean-burning jewel energy!

[[AFTER A LENGTHY, EXPENSIVE TRIAL:]]
HUGO: I expect our next case will be free.
JORDAN: You can’t get your next one free because this one was free from last time

20 years ago (in photocomic form)

A young David Malki !, Steve Carey, and Ryan North, June 2006.

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!
