Root Beers 071 - Not to be Cooked Properly...

First off, as I was uploading this comic (done this morning), I have been told that my Bamboo Graphic Tablet have completey knackered. Sad. :(
Now, this. The sisters are having cooking problems since their oven on the blink. Apologies for the typo mistake, there. The reason Choco-Rheged "Jen" Bunnzie is wearing a black band, is because of these three people at the comic, below the copyright line.

Hello, once again.

First off, the next Root Beers number won't be on this weekend. Apparently, it was due to my Bamboo tablet being an absolute idiot. On the plus side, I'm getting on very well with my final major project, at Southampton City College. It is 68 pages in total, and I done 26 pages, so far. So, it's 26 pages down and 42 pages to go. Earlier this year, I done a lot of pub sketches at The Duke of Wellington, Southampton, and if I have some time I can show you them. As I were saying, there'll be delays on Root Beers and other stuff. Oh, and also, if you remember on 31st March, Eurokatt asked me to send her birthday wishes to Celine Dion, the winner of Eurovision Song Contest 1988 for Switzerland, on Twitter and guess what? Fourteen people have retweeted that tweet, including the official Eurovision Twitter account! When I told her, Eurokatt was moved to tears, saying "I'm beginning to get recognied by Eurovision officials." Awww, bless. Don't forget to watch Eurovision Song Contest 2012 on Saturday 26th May, on your local E.B.U. station. Until then, ta-ta!

P.S. Oh, and by the way, if you're wondering what Ally Bobcat was saying in Root Beers #67, he said "Alexander Elliott-Welch have won 3 silver medals, 2 bronze medals and 2 ribbons at the Special Olympics Gymnastic competition at Fort Regent, Jersey on Saturday 17th March 2012. Thank you." in Wingdings.

Root Beers 070 - He Looked Blue!

Meet Fredrick Fox. He's Ally Bobcat's friend and his father is one of the top 100 richest animals of Eurbungoia.

In case you're wondering, where did I find that joke from, I actually found it on one of the illustrations from "The Penguin Book of Comics" (1967/1971, George Perry and Alan Aldridge). Very rare, if you ask me. It's from one of the pages of "Chuckles", dated Saturday, July 24, 1915. Waaaaay older than the Dandy. (No offence.)

Apologies for a day delay, there.

Root Beers 069 - My Little Bunnzie

As you know, quite recently, that the furry world have been taken over by, you guess it, characters and elements from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, created for animation by Lauren Haust. Anyway, JUST for this week, I have no choice, but to turn the Bunnzie sisters, Nancius and Choco-Rheged "Jen" Bunnzie into, you guess it, PONIES!

God, I'm feeling random, this evening.

Root Beers 068 - What's the Name of That Comic?

¿Cuál es el nombre de ese cómic?

If you ever learn your alphabet with 12 letters, you must be nuts. The Hawaii version of the Alphabet has 12 letters. This version has about 14 letters, due to lack of paint. Nice show there, Abby Cadabby.

Based on one of the Sesame Street comic strips from 1975, by Cliff Roberts. Check "Muppet Wiki" for details.

Abby Cadabby (c) Sesame Workshop 2006
Dedicated to the memory of Abby Cadabby's original creator, Tony Geiss

Root Beers 067 - You Wing-a-dings!

Ally Bobcat have set up a challenge for you. Try and work out what is he saying in Wingdings (the font)
Don't mind me, I'm getting ready to go back to college on Monday. So, good luck on translating parp.

Hello, everyone!

First off, it's funfair time!
(let's go of balloon)
That was funfair time, and now... the newsflush.

People are being unaware of wondering what happening to the next issue of Root Beers. Well, to be honest, I'm trying to keep tracks on what was going on.

I'm stuck for any ideas for the next few comics, I can't think which fan art goes next, and I'm about to do the graphic novel for my Final Major Project. If you're familiar with acornyms, it's F. M. P.

Anyway, I'm planning a few ideas for comics, fan art, and other stuff that was SUPPOSED to be bloody mentioned in the Announcement bit. Ooooooh, almost let my senstive side go, there.

So, until then, this is Al Welch, for BBC South Today, Southampton.
