It's been ten entire years (to the month!) since Joel and I created our comic book Clucked. What if we revisited it as older and wiser creators? Next week we start taking a walk down memory lane looking at our old script and pages, along with other fun silly stuff along the way. #comics
A white chicken with a red waddle in a blue spacesuit holding a white and gold laser blaster poses looking cornered. "Caught" if you will. The background is a "Chik-E-Nugz" chicken restaurant menu with a galaxy behind it. The image is the cover of a comic book and has the title logo "Clucked" in red and black at the top, next to the "Chik-E-Nugz Since 1930" logo and the "Hey Joie!" (The creator's) logo.

Does this or does this not say CAT milk?!
An ad from Starbucks with the handwritten word "Oatmilk" on it but the font is bad and so it reads, to me, like "Catmilk"

Made a Shiitake quiche with ham, cheese and spinach (aka a "clean out your fridge quiche) and it was fantastic. I'm sure that had nothing to do with the POUND of shiitake mushroom and quarter cup of butter I cooked them in 🤣

Starting with my first trip to Japan, I discovered I really love visiting shrines and temples, and began collecting goshuin. Here's my current goshuincho that has a fully filled front side!
A small book with purple embroidery on white fabric and a plastic see-through covering. It has a paper title with "Shuin Book" written in Japanese calligraphy on its lefthand side. It is a goshuincho, which means "honorable stamp/seal book" that is used to collect painted or paper goshuin (red seals). The seals are used a mark of pilgrimage to various shrines and temples. The paper inside is heavy enough to accept calligraphy work, and unfolds like an accordion as opposed to being bound at the spine.

I was pleased to find a shinto shrine here in Los Angeles (Shinto Shrine of Shussen Inari of America)! I was able to purchase a goshuin (red seal stamp) for my goshuincho.

Happy New Year! ✨ Being that we're too old for NYE parties anymore, this year me and some friends instead decided to head to Little Tokyo for the big New Year's Day Celebration. We got omamori, ate delicious food, got fortunes, and had a day that beats the hell out of being hungover and useless!

Resplendent in her holo-shimmer wings and linear-holographic hair & hooves, Holocorn can cause severe eye damage if stared at while in direct sun. Technically an alicorn, her feathers are coveted as the rare ingredient in indie nail polishes (and hunted by Lisa Frank nearly to extinction) #juneicorn

Soupicorn isn’t your typical tiny food thief; they use their pho-nomenal magical hair to camouflage themselves in your bowl. After some time stewing, they’ll slurp up your noodles lickety split (pea) and don’t broth-er to leave you any. #juneicorn

Spinning his way right round, baby, right round is the Uni-Go-Round. He passes his days as a carousel ride, amassing an impressive collection of drool, graffiti, and trauma guaranteed to make his therapist’s head spin. #juneicorn
A cartoon of a carousel horse unicorn with white fur and pink, purple, and white curly mane and tail. He's got mint green, gold, and pink carousel trappings, and a golden pole. He looks extremely unenthused about the little girl scream-crying on her saddle, and the little boy who is slobbering on her leg

Psst. Speakeasicorn is quite the hotsy-trotsy, flouting all the rules and throwing the wildest parties, despite those salacious rumors of a high-society upbringing. She really knows her onions, so don’t take any wooden nickels and she might even show a horse to some giggle water. #juneicorn
A cartoon unicorn drawn in sepia tones with small hits of blue, dressed in flapper-style gear. She's using her hoof to tip a bottle of booze hidden behind a decorative fan while giving the viewer a mischievous look!

Pizzacorn's toppings are the subject of fierce debates. While pepperoni & mushrooms are usually non-controversial, pineapple or anchovies have started wars. Whatever your tastes, it is the most versatile, beloved and fastest horses to ever be stuffed inside of a square cardboard box. #juneicorn
A cartoon unicorn made of pizza! Its body is mostly gooey cheese with mushroom and pepperonis. Its horn, mane, back ridge, and hooves appear to be made of crust.

Squeaky-clean Sudsicorn's green and white stripes boast TWO types of deodorant, and he is rumored to smell like manliness. Or a waterfall. Or… Irish? The ad was never really clear. (Disclaimer: do not lick Sudsicorn; he may cause you to go blind.) #juneicorn
A dancing cartoon unicorn who appears to be made of soap. He has blue-green and white stripes, and his mane and tail are made of soap bubbles. He balances a yellow rubber duck on his nose.

Too young to partake in her parents' fêtes, Roséneigh is training to be a world class host. She throws elaborate tea parties with artisanal sugarcube tasting (where her great aunt Vodkacorn tries to sell ugly glass bracelets- no pressure to buy, go AWAY Phyllis you're embarrassing me!) #juneicorn
A young cartoon unicorn with goldish-pink fur and soft pink "stocking" fur markings. She has green eyes and the beginnings of grapevines growing out of her tail. She's creating some golden bubbles with her horn, and is standing in front of a milk-glass green chalk-like texture as the background.

Caberneigh and Chardonneigh are a power couple in the horse world. These celebrity Vinocorns are known for their outlandish parties, animated stories and confident dance moves. Though they've been known to be a headache at times, friends rarely stay mad at such an uncorked duo. #juneicorn
Two cartoon Bacchanalian unicorns-- the one on the left is a male, and is a buttery-yellow color with a gold curly mane and long flowing gold tail decorated with green grapes. The one on the right is a deep red with an Ancient-Greek-esque hairstyle complete with small curls and a golden headband. Her darker red tail is decorated with red grapes and grapevines.

Galloping into this holiday season like a turbinado tornado, this demerara is anything but demure. Caneicorn's confectionary craftiness (and her signature cantor-canes) earn high marks with children but less-so with dentists... but occasionally sampling her own wares goes a tad too far. #juneicorn

Heliocorn and Lunacorn are arguably the most important unicorns in their entire friend group. Their top five magical powers include being beautiful, being fit, being super-low body fat, and being better (than you, mainly). They also can't count. #juneicorn
Two cartoon unicorns  posing beautifully and standing back to back with their tails braided together. The unicorn on the left is a soft violet color with dark blue mane and tail. He has a silver horn, silver hooves, and wears a dark metal necklace with studs and a moon on it. The unicorn on the right is a butter yellow with burnt orange mane and tail. He has a gold horn and gold hooves. He wears a metal necklace with a big golden sun on it. They stand in front of a chalk-like texture that has a gradient from gold to dark blue.

Arabesquicorn defies the laws of physics, executing the most graceful dance steps known to horsedom. She is single-minded in her strides toward elegance, which can be a bit distracting when she pirouettes into a display of oranges in the store. We're just tryinga buy our groceries, lady. #juneicorn
A brown cartoon unicorn dressed in a pink and purple ballet tutu/leotard combination, lifting one back leg and one front leg to execute a horse-version of the ballet move "arabesque." She has sparkly purple eyeshadow and a gold tiara. Her mane is in a French twist, and her tail is in a ballet bun. She even has ballet ribbons that match her pink hooves, which gives the appearance of horse pointe shoes. She poses in front of an aqua chalk-like texture which is the background.

With a long neck and top-notch health insurance, the Giraffeicorn is a chiropractor’s dream. Don't bother inviting her to your birthday party. Even if she could fit through the front door, she'd be terrible at limbo. Also, she can't read. You wasted an invitation. #juneicorn

Coming in at a perfect 5/10, Plainicorn’s hobbies include: counting his blinks, organizing his artisanal sock drawer, writing complaint letters about crunchy taco shells being too loud (but never sending them), and holding an unwavering belief that mayonnaise is just a tad too spicy. #juneicorn

A living fractal, Metacorn is a difficult unicorn to define. Technically named z=z^K+c (where c = number of horns, K= lollipops, and z = general horsitude ), it's impossible to tell where it begins, where it ends, when the psychedelics kicked in, and what the color of my shirt smells like #juneicorn
A yellow cartoon unicorn, sitting up straight on its hind haunches, who is the horn for a larger unicorn, and whose horn is itself another unicorn. The pattern continues endlessly, like a fractal. The background is a yellow and black fractalization of the same image. It's difficult to describe accurately...
