Have You Seen Me?

In every city and town, there a bunch of great pets looking for families. If you're in Los Angeles, please visit the L.A. Animal Services website for animals to adopt. If you live elsewhere, check the nearest pet adoption service near you.

May all the lost find their way home.

Stop The Clocks

There are a lot of new and exciting artists out there. San Francisco based Jeremy Forson is one of them. His work is instantly unique and I'm thrilled to have him as a contributor to Six-Word Tales. Please check out more of Jeremy's art at his official site.

Today's story is like a long lost Greek myth. Suddenly, it's a world without sunsets.

Six-Word Sketchbook: Terry Wolfinger

Terry sez: "I grew up reading Mad and Marvel and was really influenced by the likes of Mort Drucker, Jack Davis and Bernie Wrightston. I'm a huge fan of some contemporary painters like Sebastian Krüger, Phil Hale and Simon Bisley. I've been fortunate enough to work with a couple of them.

Most of my work is illustration and design for video games, but also some comics, and occasionally concept work for films. I've always got a few projects going on the side, presently a graphic novel and putting together some paintings for an art show. Basically, I just love drawing and would be absolutely miserable if I ever had to stop. They're gonna hve to pry that ballpoint from my hand!"

More of Terry's work can be seen on his blog and also at his official site.

The Next Scream You Hear May Be Your Own

Hitchcock would have made a great zombie movie. Or maybe he did...

Terry Wolfinger returns to illustrate this alt version of an iconic movie moment.

"Go as quietly as you can, not a sound until I tell you to run. And then I want you to run as fast as you can. Does everyone understand?"

Six-Word Sketchbook: Matt Strackbein

Since Matt created these preliminary sketches for this week's tale, I thought I'd share them with everyone as well as a little info about the newest member of the SWT gang.

Matt sez: "I'm always working on my own original comics - obsessively - but lately I've been contributing to two different zines, which I think are super cool. I appreciate the underground street level attitude that comes from zines and I'm very proud to contribute to them. In terms of my heroes, the list is: Dr. Seuss, Charles Schulz, Harold Gray, Milton Caniff and Norman Rockwell."
