Pesky Gremlins Comic 557 – The Winner Is…

The Winner Is…

The Home Owners Association selects the winner of the hotly contested “Figgy Pudding” neighborhood Christmas decorating contest.

Well, that will be the last Pesky Gremlins for 2019.  On this little tale, I ran out of time before I ran out of story.  I had (what I thought) was a great battle of the giant inflatable monsters, but just plain did not have the time to do it.  Those first couple of monsters took me a LONG time to draw and color.  I would also need the neighborhood from various perspectives and drawing any kind of building also takes a long time.  Maybe next year?

I would like to wish all of our readers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

The gremlins will be back in January of 2020.  Rumor has it that Fubar has been given another mission with the Royal Flying Corps (biplanes!)

    1. I understand the this time of year is a good time to buy real estate. Thanks Peter. I hope that you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

  2. Merry Christmas – Happy New Year enjoy a short break and come back strong 🙂

    1. I am hoping to come back in 2020 with a modern new computer and electronic sketch pad! Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year JP!

  3. Now is the time to invest in buying the neighborhood! Have a Merry Christmas, Howard!

    1. I agree. I am betting that there are some really good deals to be had on home purchases in that neighborhood! And I would like to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too, David!

  4. Just now actually read the commentary. Maybe work a little bit on next year’s Christmas special a little bit at a time throughout the year? That’s give you the added benefit of having a buffer for the holidays, and give yourself a break.

    1. Excellent advice. That is what I have been doing for the October Halloween specials. To be honest, I had not planned to bring back Christmas Godzilla. I was convinced by another reader to bring him back but that was pretty late in the year. So I was behind before I even started. I also had lots of new story ideas while drawing this. ANYWAY, Christmas Godzilla and Mr Snootie will most likely be back next Christmas AND I will be better prepared. Thanks!

      1. Ah. All things considered, it worked out well.
