Munden's Bar #2
Published by ComicMix, October 2007
Munden's is used to having pale guys dressed all in black showing up. But there was this one anthropomorphic personification of a concept that came in one night...

Wheatley and Hempel at the same site on the same week? Are we preparing for a MARS relaunch?

Hey, do we start rumors about you doing new Wasteland stories?
Hmm... maybe we should.

New MARS would be fun - assuming I can get that TIME WARP working and Marc and I can find some additional time. EZ STREET is keeping me busy at the moment. Well - that and THE MIGHTY MOTOR-SAPIENS over at ROWDY.com and a few other projects. Comics would be so much easier to do if they didn't take so much TIME!

Let me just say that an ear to ear smile is in order.
More Munden's

Why is there such a lag in the CM reader when I try to enlarge the images? I'm on a high speed connection.

Love it! Marc, you inspire me. Aways.

Someone ought to alert Neil Gaiman about this so he can mention it on his blog...

Another great Munden's Bar installment. I filled out the e-mail form on Neil Gaiman's site so he should have at least one notification about this. He hasn't mentioned it yet. - Neil Ottenstein

ROFL! Awesome. I could use a good "Sleep of the Dead." :)
Except my dreams are nowhere near as exciting, for some odd reason...
Excellent! Can't wait for the next installment!

I honestly believe Grimjack was one of the all-time great comic books in its original run; right up there with, say, The Spirit, Sugar & Spike, or Sandman. And what pushed it beyond the category of just very, very, good was the Munden's Bar stories. Cynosure was too big an idea to use for just Gaunt; but the backups let you build and explore the world you created. It let you and everybody play around with Cynosure and freed up the main story to tell about Grimjack. So, as much as I've enjoyed the return of Gaunt, it didn't feel like things were back up to speed quite.
Now they are. Grimjack needs Munden's and vice versa; now that we have both back I know there is no limit at all to what you can show us. It's a good feeling; thank you.

Neil Gaiman just put up a link to this on his journal.

Lovely bit. Just came over from Neil's site. Is this a published comic? Is there a series?

The JC Penney tag made me spit coffee all over the monitor. Excellent job, gentlemen!

Nice. And love the JC Penney tag and the lament of being trendy. Also, Fishbourne Morpheus REALLY looks good so kudos to the artist!
