Last Kiss contributor Mike Pascale Artist-Writer (left) with Game Buzz co-creator Jason M Davies at a Seahawks game.
Artist-writer Mike Pascale and I always team up for Halloween (and many other holidays) to create some wild Last Kiss humor. But many LK fans aren’t aware that Mike also does a funny webcomic (Game Buzz) about the Seattle Seahawks.

If you enjoy Mike’s work (or you’re a Seahawks fan) check out this YouTube video. The interview with Mike begins about six minutes into the podcast.

This one’s for my wife Shelagh—an eternal optimist. (In short, a Seattle Mariner’s fan.)
What? You thought I was the baseball fan in the family? Not likely!
But—for Shelagh’s sake—Go Mariners!

Now, here’s something you wouldn’t see in an American comic book for kids.
Although this may look like an audition for Last Kiss cheerleaders, it’s actually an ad in a Danish Donald Duck comic book.
This full-page ad appeared in the Oct. 13, 2005 edition of ANDERS And & Co. It’s promoting a movie af banen! (We are the Champions) about a divorced dad who takes over the coaching of his son’s little league soccer team—thus reconnecting with his son. (And earning the love of one of the soccer moms.)
Judging from this photo, he’s also popular with cheerleaders.
