I posted a story, now you go vote!

Posted by operator x On May - 3 - 2011

Ok, so this is a blatant bribe, I’ve been behind on posting new work the last two weeks, been busy preparing for TCAF and getting Sequential’s special coverage material together, and absorbing some huge good news i’ll mention in a few lines.

To make it up to you, i’m posting this story, a nice colour 5 pager that i think has some rousing sociopolitical tones. If you poke around you’ll find a link to the song it’s based on too.

In exchange for it I ask all my Canadian readers to get out and vote today! Obama got Osama, yep it’s true, done and done [some interesting details about how here for the news hounds].

The big news is as of the latest polls, the NDP are within 3 points of the Conservatives!

Holly crap. But that could all be vapor if people don’t get out and vote.

If you enjoy the art I share with you then know this, I’ve directly benefited from arts council suport, once in the past, and big news, i just got accepted for a new grant last month. Which means i’ll be able to keep working on Dream Life without interruption, and in my spare time do some more comics for RevolveЯ too!

This is the kind of funding to give you the kind of art Harper and Co would not think is worthy of support probably, if given a free hand he’d have cut far more.

So keep democracy, and the arts, vibrant in Canada. Take some friends out for breakfast or lunch today, and stop at the polls. Make sure to scoop up the lazy ones with you, all they need is two bits of ID. And don’t forget, a strategic vote could be for NDP!

Canadians go VOTE today! Give Harper a swift kick if not the full boot!
