Panel 2

Cassie Cruz: For the past few weeks, it seems as if the superheroes have been using inside information to thwart our clients.

Panel 3

Jeremy: I’ve heard. We may have a mole.

Panel 4

Cassie Cruz: The employees think it’s me!
And they’re mad as hell!

Panel 5

Jeremy: That’s ridiculous.
This very morning, Desi wanted to bring you a hot cup of coffee as soon as you got to the office!
She even asked how you take it.

Panel 6

Jeremy: Did she make it strong enough?

Panel 7
Cassie Cruz:  I dunno… Let’s ask it.

(Cassie lifts an overturned bucket on her desk, revealing a coffee cup where the coffee has turned into a monstrous creature, growling and snapping.)

The Complete Greystone Inn — 50%-off the hardcover

Complete_GI_coverIf you’ve ever considered getting a copy of The Complete Greystone Inn hardcover — but were put off by that $60 hardcover price tag — your moment has come. Now through Nov. 24, you can get your copy of this 416-page tome at 50% off! Just use offer code: HC50. Greystone Inn was my first daily comics strip, running from 2000-2005. Inspired by both Who Framed Roger Rabbit and The Larry Sanders Show, it was a comic strip about a fictional syndicated comic strip called Greystone Inn. Like Roger Rabbit, Argus the gargoyle — and the other stars of the comic — were living, breathing cartoon characters who worked among humans. And, like Sanders, most of the storytelling took place behind the scenes. Click to download a PDF sampler of the strip.
