Clicky the image for BIGGIE! There’s a lot of little detail on this one. “Camino Cats” by Tim Doyle- for sale soon on Nakatomi Inc! (And in color, natch!)

Matt there, (and he is a WRITER- not an artist, as MLB credits him …duh!) is rocking Paul Pope’s invitational T-shirt from a few months back. Being a…

McDonaldland
I remember a better time. A time when life was about having fun, enjoying a sunny day, or just hanging out with friends. That was when it felt good to be alive. But now the only thing I feel about being amongst the living is lucky. Or unlucky, if you really want to be brutally honest. How can one feel good about being one of the only survivors of… McDonaldland! Thunderlips’s Top-Secret Private Journal Date:…

Hey, we’ve been running tests this week in the Nakatomi Print Labs, and have a bunch of crazy stuff left laying around.
