If you’ve been to any of the previous 24-Hour events, you know you’re gonna wanna be there.

If you HAVEN’T yet, here’s why you should:

THE 24-HOUR COMIC CHALLENGE:
Can you write and draw a 24-page comic all by yourself in 24 hours? Many have tried; some have succeeded.
Give it a shot — what’s the worst that can happen (aside from sleep deprivation, dizziness, headaches, cramping, hallucinations, extreme paranoia, paralysis, temporary blindness, and possible death) ?

THE DEALS:
50% OFF EVERYTHING IN THE STORE (excluding new-this-month items; sorry, jerks).

If you’re not so good at math, that means HALF OFF.
This is huge.

There will also be door prizes, raffles, giveaways, Silent Auctions, and FREE COMICS!!

THE WARM-UP:
COFFEE CHALLENGE!!! This is a 24HCD tradition, and if I’m keeping track right, I don’t believe there’s ever been one where someone DIDN’T vomit.
(I guess that’s a selling point?)

THE MAIN EVENT:
JELLO WRESTLING!!!!!!! That’s right, sports fans, this will be the grudge match to end all grudge matches: NICK “MAN-MOUNTAIN” WASKIE versus ASHLEY “THE BEAST FROM THE EAST”, um, EAST!!! (yeah, that’s her last name.
) This will be a No-Holds-Barred match — and I hate ta tell Waskie, but I think Ashole just got in those brass knuckles she bought off the internets…

As you can imagine, as the night goes on, thing will only get crazier — I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to put the WHEEL OF CHALLENGES to good (or evil) use…
who knows, we might have some Acey-Deucey, we might have some Jim Plagman — shit, we just might have BOTH AT THE SAME TIME!!!!

THE BOTTOM LINE:
This is a time not to be missed by fans of comics or FUN in general!
…or fans of ridiculous shit, insomnia, puke, Poison Donuts… . .


Begins Saturday at NOON and runs all the way until noon on SUNDAY!

Lastly, let’s mention that that day also kicks off our annual HALLOWEEN COSTUME CONTEST! It runs from Saturday the 18th all the way until Halloween night, the 31st — come dressed up any time during that period and get MORE FREE COMICS and chances to win Gift Certificate Prizes for the following categories:
Most Original; Best Kids Costume; Most Scarifying; Best Comic-Related; Worst Costume; and Best Overall!
PLUS: We’re holding our first-ever PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST, running the same dates!

Hope ta seeya then!!

Fred was kind enough to organize this year’s installment of FIELD DAY — similar to the grade school event, ‘cept fer the fact that we’re all old and brittle now, and the complaints of SORENESS that will inevitably continue on into subsequent weeks.

But whatev, it’s fun, free…and lots of other good stuff that I’m too tired to write about presently; point is, YOU SHOULD GO.

Okay, you think about that and ah’m gonna hand the mic over to Fred’s post.
Seeya Sunday!

mm, that’s pretty fuckin’ cold — I’d like to apologize on Fred’s behalf for the rude comment regarding Waskie’s supreme jerkiness; I’m sure that there’re PLENTY of bigger jerks than Nick, such as… ummm… …welll, there’s…uhhh…Okay, I can’t think of anybody off-HAND, but — but there’s GOTTA be SOMEbody, right? Right????
