Fan Comic: Ersatz and the Ants!
antcomics on Sept. 11, 2007
When I first came to Drunkduck, I somehow stumbled onto the Unitary Authority of Ersatz, an off-the-wall comic about two blobs' adventures…I was instantly hooked. Ersatz, in turn, came back and looked through my comics, quickly converting into an ‘Antperson’ and has been one of my most faithful readers since.
So… as a big ‘thank you’ for that, and for making a fantastic comic that just cracks me the heck up every time, I submit to you “Ersatz and the Ants”, wherein T.P. Wigwam and Kip have moved into the Ants' neighborhood (I just love drawing the Ants' cute lil' suburbian house). The Ants, being the swell gents they are, invite them in for dinner…could it be the Last Supper? Haa!!
Please, if you haven't already, check out Ersatz's Super fun land of Blobs, Dysentery, and much, much more here:

That is just hysterical! Dysentery in a can! ROTFL! Kudos to you for keeping the spirit of Ersatz and adding a bit more from Yourself. As it happens, Ersatz was one of my first friends on DrunkDuck, too, and we've been faithful readers of each others' comics ever since.

Well dammit, HarryQ, thanks! :) And...try to keep yer trousers up in here, willya? ;p dgriff: Coming from you, that's a real compliment. Yeah, I stubbornly stick to the old-school methods...the marker look just seems to work better for my stuff. ncbadd: Thanks! I'd be glad to share any techniques...'tis no big thing. One thing: Never throw out partially dried-out markers! :)

I left a 5 for this on "not Ersatz" and dammit Jim, I'll drop 5 here! It seems I'm addicted to dropping 5s and trousers, constANTly (is that how its done?).

Wow, I made you laugh out loud!? Awesomenessocity! Yeah, coloring by hand it a laborious process, but it was soooo worth it! Thanks, guys. :oD

Man, I look at your work and think, damn, this looks really good! I just love the reactions to Dysentary in a can. LOL!

My girlfriend is giving me funny looks because I am actually laughing out loud -- not giggling or simply vibrating as I do, but all-out laughing! Thank you so much, you must have put so much work into this, and you've captured my characters perfectly! I absolutely love their expressions in the 2nd part of that 3rd panel! The Ants and blobs make perfect neighbours, and Dysentery in a Can! Why didn't I ever think of that? Pure genius! You are amaaaaaaaziiiiiiiiiing!
