Last Kiss will have a booth (#708) at The Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle. I’ll be there all three days (March 30-April 1) with some new, astonishingly cool Last Kiss goodies. Come by and say “Hi!” Otherwise, I get lonely and cry.

It’s been a long time since I’ve had a contest. Too long for Last Kiss super fan Jim Guida.

Jim saw this 1960s romance panel that I posted recently and e-mailed me, “The woman’s response in the original art just screams for a caption contest. C’mon!”
Okay, Jim. Here’s the contest that I posted on Facebook.
This time, though, let’s keep it low key. I’m not going to pick a winner. (Hey, that means you’re all winners.) But if you’ve got a great caption or bit of dialog to add to this art, let’s hear it.

I’ve decided to expand my blog and talk about whatever interests me at the moment. Humor. My life. Politics. My life.
My opinions about other people. My opinions about my opinions…about my life. And, of course, my opinions about other people’s opinions about my life.
And—for today at least—new conspiracy theories which must be true because I’m making them up and I would never lie to you.
The Republicans are right. The poor economy is Barack Obama’s fault. Where the GOP goes wrong is in just blaming him for problems in the last three years.
Think deep, guys. The economy is recovering. And Obama is starting to get credit for this. So maybe this whole economic crisis was just a hoax—engineered by Obama to make himself look good.
Sure, Bush was in office when the economy tanked. But how can we be sure that Bush wasn’t being controlled by Obama? Wouldn’t that be perfect? If you blame Obama for Bush, all your problems disappear.
(By the way, just to get ahead of the curve, why not start blaming Obama for Mitt Romney now?)

Above is the original romance art from First Kiss #26 (Click to enlarge.) that I used for my gag “Smooch Emergency.”
I had Allen Freeman draw in the bottom right of the Last Kiss version. The space was originally take up by the second panel of the story—which delivers a double-dose of heartache.
Oh, man. I hate when one of my siblings marries my sweetheart!
