Jeff uses the last of the matches to light a joint. Priorities, for sure. π
Spent WAY too much time on this page. Re-drew it about a half dozen times. Fiddle with poses, hands, angles… you name it, I did it at least once in this comic. I normally have a very good idea of what I want. But when I drew my first version, I wasn’t happy with it. Then I did a second version. That hit the mark, but I didn’t like a couple of frames. Re-worked it some more, and them some more. So, after all that, I didn’t start inking until Sunday and then I had chores to do around the house. At least I have it colored. Shading will show up tomorrow.
Since Jeff’s high and getting ready to light the fire (which never goes well with Bud and Jeff’s history of blowing things up), I decided to go with the old stand-by of ELO’s “Fire On High”. It should start at the 1:30 mark. If not, skip to that point as that’s where ALL the radio stations start the track. The rest of the intro is just someone being high and writing down a bunch of notes for an orchestra to play (at least to my ears).
Reminds me of my adolescent days.
A garage filled with unmarked jars of flammable liquids and absolutely no parental supervision!
Model rockets and M-80s were my trademark weapons of mass destruction. π
There goes the Island! [whoosh-boom-fizz]
Think… smaller… π
Nice Deep Purple reference π
YES!! Someone caught my reference to “Smoke On The Water”!! My favorite line up of Deep Purple was the MKII version with Ian Gillan and Roger Glover. Thank you, you made my day! π
Ah, Deep Purple. “Fireball”, anybody?
Blue Γyster Cult – “Burnin’ for You”
Johnny Cash – “Ring of Fire”
As a wee child, I would play the 45RPM of “Ring of Fire” over and over. My Dad tells the story to this day.
And, I think “Fireball” is Deep Purples best album. “Who Do We Think We Are?” comes in a close second. “Machine Head” is good, but it’s not as good as everyone makes it out to be (compared to those other two albums).
Just my 2-cents. And BOC rocks, man. π
“Fire on High”? I looked for that song for *YEARS* after I first heard it on an ABC Sports ad, and then occasionally on radio. I finally heard it and actually managed to ask someone with a deeper knowledge of Rock and Roll than mine and found out the title. Now I play it pretty often. (Now If only I could find a full orchestral score…)
Yeah, ABC Sports for Golf or something used it for years as their into-music.
I’m gonna say there is a full-score around. Not cheap, but one can be found. I used to buy a lot of sheet music, and music stores guys can order just about anything… for a price. π
Do you remember who the publisher is? I found a reference to a piano/guitar score on a used sheet music website (long out of print!), but I’ve never seen anything about an actual orchestral score.
This isn’t going to end well, Gilligan…
Ah, more than a few parallels with “Gilligan’s Island” going on in this story. π
And Bud is HOLDING A FIRE in his hand from the first panel! Ah, well, nobody loves Bud for his practical mindedness and general usefulness.
Well, it’s Jeff, but they’re both birds of a feather… which is why I stated Jeff used all the matches already… lighting joints is a higher priority then starting a fire. π
Jeff is complete dumb blond dumber than Ann Coulter who could easily be his mother if she was not really a transsexual. Jeff you’ll blow the plane up they will be no supplies then you will be neutered and rightfully so dope. Don’t do it!
