Mourning in America
I generally avoid politics on my social media accounts, but here are my thoughts about this recent presidential election.
Whenever a candidate becomes president elect, they usually reach out to the other side, providing reassurance that they will be president for all Americans. Of course you can never please everyone, and this isn't always how it plays out, but it is a great U.S. tradition that acknowledges our diversity and differences of opinion. Not that I listened to anything Drumpf (his real family name) has said since the election, but I assume it's just to promise retribution on his enemies and anyone who voted against him. It was the theme of his whole campaign. Aside from his very public convictions, bankruptcies, shafting of other businesses, etc., this is the core of his "character."
So I hope nothing but ill will for this cretin. And I say this noting that, as partisan as I am, I have never felt that any candidate running for this office has ever been as incompetent and ill-suited for this office as this POS.
Get ready for the sh*t show world, it's gonna be a bumpy ride. Fortunately, I have family, friends and my comics work to distract me from dwelling too much on what’s going to happen in the coming years. But I don’t know what the hell has happened to this country.

Tintin Tribute – Rob Hanes Adventures #26
However, while working on the story, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to pay homage to the classic Hergé Tintin cover for Destination Moon! (The booster rocket’s checkerboard pattern is a nod to the same pattern design on Tintin’s Moon Rocket.)
Several other classic comic strips also went into space—not sure yet whether I’ll reference any of the others, though the Dick Tracy Bucket Air Car is high on my list!
