And just in time for Halloween this weekend, we have Jeff bombarding zombies with sticks of dynamite launched from his bow! First saw this bow and arrow/dynamite trick on “The Dukes of Hazard” TV show back in the day. (I’m 25% redneck) Looking closely, you’ll see a zombie’s hand near the explosion in the background. 

I’ve had a lot of fun creating these mock covers! I am retired from creating new comic strips or stories for 1977, but these characters have been a companion of mine since 2007 when I first scribbled a terrible sketch of Bud around my 50th birthday. I’m 64 now and I hope to be drawing these characters for years to come. When an idea hits me, I’ll draw it and post it. If I come up with new stuff, I’ll post about it on the 1977 Facebook page, and on my Twitter and Instagram accounts. Keep on rockin’ and we’ll chat again. 

To put Halloween into full swing, let’s crank up “Highway to Hell”! Appropriate since Bud has been to hell and back. (As have I these past few years, but it’s much better now!)
