What is Team Cul de Sac?

by admin on January 2nd, 2012
Posted In: Blog

Evening folks,

Back in April 2011 I had the crazy idea to submit a cartoon to the Team Cul de Sac fundraising project.

Here is the first of my cartoons. Panel 1 of a 4 panel set.

Click to view larger.

But more importantly what is Team Cul de Sac?

Well…

Artists from around the world are passionate about Richard Thompson’s work, and his is the only cartoon to be endorsed by Calvin and Hobbes creator, Bill Watterson. In 2009, Thompson announced his diagnoses of early-onset Parkinson’s. The Team Cul de Sac book serves as a showcase of original artwork donated to benefit Team Fox, the fundraising arm of the Michael J. Fox Foundation, founded in 2000 to help speed the development of better treatments for Parkinson’s patients and, ultimately, cure the disease.

Team CDS, is a very, very worthy cause and is the brainchild of Chris Sparks. With the blessing of the brilliantly talented Richard Thompson the project has grown and grown and grown. Last I heard, Team CDS, had already raised nearly $5,000!

But they still need more!

Now, here we are in 2012 and the book will be launched this June!

So for your added convenience here is a handy link to pre-order it right NOW!

An auction of all the original art will then happen around September time.

Thanks for reading,

ROLFE

A quick sofa sketch on my iPad.

My daughter is loving the NEW “A Charlie Brown Christmas” iPad App.

So, I did this for her.

The Webcomic Alliance!

Morning,

Wow!! My webcomic has been selected as ‘Pick of the Week’ over on the ‘Webcomics Alliance’ blog!

I can’t describe how chuffed I am about this. Main reason being that, they (Alliance Members) are very experienced/knowledgable/talented webcomic creators. Who I have the utmost respect for. I’m a relative ‘newb’ to all this webcomicry. So to be selected by them has made my week!

There is an excellent blog post explaining the comic and they’ve also posted a few of the comics.

Here’s a link to the article.

Many thanks to Todd McElmurry for putting it all together,

Thanks for reading,
ROLFE

p.s. New strip will post tonight!!

Been thinking evil thoughts

Morning,

Thought I might skip. ROLFE REDUX this week.

But I do have something else I’d like to share with you.

As well all know a superhero is no good with out an evil foe to battle against.

Batman has Joker. Superman has Lex.

Well, Mighty Monocle has this guy.

I’m not going to give specifics. Name, type, inside leg, etc. By all means suggest one. It might be better.

I just thought I might give you my loyal reader (yes, that’s you) a sneaky peek.

It’s early days. He may well change bit.

Thanks for reading.

ROLFE

P.s. This sketch was drawn on the back of an envelope. Thanks to the brilliant Denver Brubaker who spurred me on.

I worked so darn hard on this sketch I actually broke my stylus!

But I soldiered on. Have finger will sketch.

Enjoy,

ROLFE
