This is my winning entry in this month' CLAW Open Swim. The theme... The Alternate Lifestyles of the Super Fabulous (What if your favorite super hero was gay). You can learn more about it here: http://www.cartoonistsleague.org/june-open-swim-announcement/ I decided to take the high road and recreate an icon Spider-Man Annual with a small twist. I decided early on with this assignment that to me the hero wouldn't or shouldn't visually change just because their sexual orientation does. I kept the heroes and villains the same. I just turned Mary Jane into Marty James. Total time to complete: 1 1/2 hours.

Literal Literary Book Title

This was my entry in tonight's CLAW Open Swim. The contest was to create literal interpretations of book titles. Can you guess the title. I will give you a hint: The BLANK BLANK of BLANK

The figure behind the bear is the main character in my fellow CLAW brother's Feed>>Tacoma comic: Thorax O'Tool's Beantown
