So, this strip only represents a tiny drop in the bucket of awesome things that happened in Columbus last weekend for the 2026 National Cartoonists Society Conference and Reuben Awards! Special thanks to everyone I name-dropped here, and to Dana Simpson, of Phoebe and Her Unicorn fame, who utterly rocked out to Heidi’s karaoke and allowed me to put her in this strip!
What’s with the stress constipation? I would always get that on girl’s weekends…or maybe it was the copious amounts of alcohol and rich food. Thanks for all the fun insights!
The joys of big shows: when you need a week of mini-comas to recover from all the fun. (There were times where I was really glad some events were only one-day shows, because even sleeping 18 hours on Sunday didn’t give me a break on having to return to the Day Job on Monday.)
