Now that summer’s officially over, it’s good to take a moment and savor autumn. And then immediately panic because (Holy Crud!) there are only &^%# days to Christmas! And Hanukkah! And Uncle Binky’s birthday–it’s coming too!
And Aunt Lucy’s hemorrhoids! Shouldn’t you send a get well card?
What to do? What to do?
Fortunately, you’re a Last Kiss fan–so you’ll be prepared. Yes, the new Last Kiss greeting cards are still available. And shipping is free on all orders now. Best of all, every card sold:
1) makes me fabulously rich (in an alternative reality where Bill Gates is my brother. In this reality, it’ll just help me pay my bills and keep Last Kiss going. Yippee!)
2) proves that you’re funnier and more brilliant than all your friends–unless, of course, they buy Last Kiss cards too.
3) makes the world a better, funnier place. Unicorns will return to Middle Earth. And gravity will finally be negotiable. (There’s more, but I don’t want to make any promises I’m not sure I can keep.)
Buy Last Kiss cards today–and save the future from boredom/
↓ TranscriptSCENE: A man dressed as an airplane pilot is kissing a beautiful woman on the tarmac of an airport.
PILOT: Jeepers! A real woman! I knew buying this pilot's outfit would pay off!
WOMAN: Gosh! a real pilot! I knew stuffing my bra would
pay off!

Writing a gag for art that has no visible people in it is always a challenge. For a long time now, I’ve been wanting to come up with a great gag for this piece of art. This is the best I’ve come up with (so far) that’s reasonably clean!

PILOT: HA!
PILOT (again): I saved us...at the last second!
PILOT (again): See? I told ya...
PILOT (again): I'm not hopelessly drunk!

I’ve been looking for an excuse to use this comic for a long time and here it is. Lucky Friday the 13th. Let’s chase the gloom away with a disaster comic. If you can laugh about the economy, it’s not that bad, right? Sure…
↓ TranscriptCAPTION: If the economy was a plane flight…
PILOT ON INTERCOM: …you may experience mild turbulence!
STEWARDESS: …Free barf bags for everyone!
PASSENGER: Is it too late to call my broker?

This is one of the first Last Kiss gags I ever wrote…and it’s probably still my wife’s favorite gag. One thing that’s different, though, is that my colorist Allen Freeman has given the characters a new look. No longer all white. And certainly not blonde. It’s nice to have a little diversity–something that was extremely scarce in the original romance comics.

FLIGHT ATTENDANT: Sure, I could use a drink!
