Chris:
And here is the first filler strip, which is kind of self-explanatory. This and the next one are variations of filler strips I did for my school paper in college whenever one of our comic artists would miss a deadline. These fillers were uploaded with the Thursday dates, so that if we managed to get the actual strip done we would be able to have it go into the Friday slot.

This picture, which I used as an avatar when I first got involved with the webcomics community, created an association between me and fedoras. Well, that and the fact that I wore them almost all the time. The photo was taken on a trip to Washington, D.C., by my friend Jaime, who was a photographer for the same college paper.
