[[ABELARD and JOHNSON talk in the doorway of a fruit shoppe.]]
ABELARD: Afternoon, Johnson. Oversleep again?
JOHNSON: What a waking-centric thing to say!

JOHNSON: Who says it’s preferable to be awake? Pardon me if I relish my nightly visits to a lyrical realm of magic beauty. Why is that something I have to apologize for? So I don’t like leaving that all behind. Who would?
JOHNSON: And since the alternative is this mundane world you seem to cherish so much – well, frankly, it’s a wonder I ever get out of bed at all.

ABELARD: Great, but you’re still fired.
JOHNSON: Oh, man, déjà vû, WEIRD. Next you’re gonna drag me out in the parking lot and slap me.

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!
