Funny Stuff

First off, today's Time Cheetah contains one of the dumbest jokes we've written. It's great, you'll love it, go read it!

Second off, I want to take the time today to spread the love. You've read our stuff (probably), laughed at our jokes (hopefully), and overall just been generous with your attention and compliments. In return, I wanna take a moment and mention some comics stuff that's made me laugh and inspired me to step up my own funny game. If you like them as much as I do, throw some monies (or clicks) their way:

Megg, Mogg & Owl stories by Simon Hanselmann–I picked up Hanselmann's book Megahex on a whim two years ago (to be honest, I find stoned-looking cats really funny, because I am a simple man). I read the whole thing that night and I don't remember the last time I've laughed that hard while reading something. It's stoner absurdism with the occasional Marx Bros. anarchy, and paced panel to panel like few other comics out there. I mean, just check out this strip. If you enjoyed that, there's plenty more in the two hardcovers released so far (Megahex and Amsterdam). A word of warning: the stories can get VERY R-rated and gross. So, you know, not for the faint of heart.

Sexcastle by Kyle Starks—I'm very glad I didn't read Sexcastle before starting to write Time Cheetah, because as much time as I spent with a big grin on my face reading it, I also spent a lot of time shaking my head and thinking “welp, can't do that now.” Superbly realized homage/parody of 80's action movie tropes, with some deft storytelling and just solid laughs all around. It was up for an Eisner this year, and though it lost against some small time cartoon humorist you may have heard of, consider it the Mad Max: Fury Road of the nominees: award or not, if you're into action movies and sheer fun, there's none better.

Captain Macbastard by Twistwood—It's easy enough to recommend some funny stuff with plenty of accolades. Well, how about some of that underground, “I knew about it before it was big” good stuff? For that, you gotta get on Captain Macbastard! It starts with a big burly man trying to kill baby Hitler, and then goes in a completely different direction. It's got an awesome style, fast pacing, and a fabulous sense of humor. Also? You can read it all in like 20 minutes. So, go read it already!

OK, so if you're not all laughed out after that (I hope you're not, are you? Wait, come back! WHAT HAVE I DONE?! NO!), check out the new Time Cheetah page!

Time To Tijuana

Are you promoting the Tijuana tour company you work for, Turista Libre, in your posts again Alejandro? Shame!

Yes! But there are so many great tours coming up, I'd be remiss not to try and convince you to bring your delicious dollars across the border. 

Want to go see Lucha Libre? We got that, ringside seats too. A tour composed entirely of Taco stops? Yup, your stomach is not ready. A visit to Baja Wine country? Of course! Day of the Dead tour, Brewery visits, Market hop and two separate Seventh Anniversary spectaculars in which we visit 7 locations back to back (a friendly day version and a boozy night version)? OH YEAH!

There's something for everyone right now, so put your silly drug crime related fears aside and come down to visit Tijuana! Only AFTER you see the newest Time Cheetah page though. No sooner. 

Signed, Alejandro_Cheetah

We're Back!

Time Cheetah's back, baby! The Secret of Stalin Island Part 2 begins today, and y'all are in for quite a fun time. Long time readers, dive right in! But new readers? Stick around, let me giva ya some facts:

-Time Cheetah is a comic about a time traveling cat man who punches time criminals in the face.

-It is not a drama.

-It's written by Carlos Guzman and Alejandro Verdugo, drawn by Matt Cossin, colored by Mike Cossin, and lettered by Tom Long.

–Today we're kicking off the second part of our first Time Cheetah story: Time Cheetah and the Secret of Stalin Island! This second part will run for 26 pages before it ends, which means there's already 26 pages for you to check out!

-We update the site with a new text piece (like this one) and a new comic book page every Tuesday and Thursday. So far, the schedule has been pretty consistent, so make sure to check back twice every week and we'll have new stuff up!

-If you like Time Cheetah, spread the word! And if you REALLY like Time Cheetah, be sure to follow us on twitter, tumblr and facebook (right on the sidebar).

-A group of butterflies is called a kaleidoscope of butterflies. A group of kaleidoscopes is called a buttload of kaleidoscopes. Wow!

This new page picks up pretty close to where we left off, and has fun little Batman reference for good measure! Get reading already!

Cheetah Gon' Give It To Ya

The Secret of Stalin Island, Part 2 starts today with a beautiful cover from our artist Matt Cossin. Cower in it's awe inducing splendor.

As my brother Carlos stated in his last post, this story has been in the works for years. YEARS. There is nothing we want more than to amaze you with all the 26 pages of insanity you have coming your way right now, but the Greek Myths haves warned us of the dangers of hubris. The schedule must be respected.

But HARKWitness the cover, for like a treasure map it has all the clues you need. Gaze over every detail and listen well: everything in that cover happens in Part 2. 

Every. Single. Thing.

Stick around and strap in, it's gonna get a little crazy! Why don't you share Time Cheetah with your friends/enemies so we can strap them in too?
