Guest Comic by Michael Phelps

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Thursday, November 17, 2011,
This wonderful guest comic strip is by the indubitable gentleman, Michael Phelps!

Michael does the delightful webcomic, Life on 66, which deals with a group of friends living and working in a small town along the famous Route 66.  You might think life there is slow, but it is filled with adventures big and small!

However, I first encountered Michael through his old comic, Blue No. 7.  I enjoyed it enough to start following him on Twitter (and that explains his Twitter nom de plume, BlueNo7).

Crazy Metro's Ernest John Daryll Fiestan returns once again to Callous with this guest strip!  The movie in question appears to be Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, where the characters seem take a quantum leap in maturity.

Originally published in Crazy Metro!  Republished here with permission.  Crazy Metro is ©2010, Ernest John Daryll Fiestan

Crazy Metro's Ernest John Daryll Fiestan follows up his previous guest comic strip for Callous with this one!  With all the roasted fowl present, it's probably best that Cal is in Peanut Butter heaven elsewhere... albeit in the thoughts of one JV!

Ernest seems to be having a lot of fun with this multi-series crossover.  In the middle frame, he features yours truly in a came...

Guest Comic Strip by Dag Nygaard

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Sunday, October 10, 2010,
This guest comic strip is by Dag Nygaard (A.K.A. "Roo") from Norway!  Roo writes and illustrates the excellent comic, "Vanadys: Tales of a Fallen Goddess"!  I really appreciate this brilliant throwback to The Land of the Guardians storyline (which you can read by starting HERE and clicking "Next Post" to proceed) and the reference to the Muscovy Duck concept art I posted on this site's blog which I haven't even used on the actual comic series yet!  Now here's an artist who did some research! ...

Guest Comic Strip by Steve Brute

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Monday, September 27, 2010,
Yipes! This creepy guest comic strip is by Steve Brute, the man behind the Frightfully Shocking Tales of Spoons comic!  Thanks Steve!

It must be said, his comic is not suitable for people under the age of 15!  Be warned, naughty language, some violence, and general horror await you there!  At the proper age and still up for it?  Great!  Check out this chilling, suspense-filled and fun comic!

Guest Comic Strip by Horton Novak

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Monday, June 7, 2010,
This comic strip is a great guest contribution by Horton Novak of Skeletica!  In this crossover Skeletica tells it like it is!  Give it up, Rianne!  No matter how hard you try you won't find a pulse! 

Skeletica features the titular character, a stylish, beautiful blond skeleton who attends college!  The series chronicles her student "life": chasing boys, going shopping, and looking at her awesome self in the mirror!  Join Skeletica and her other "lively" friends by clicking HERE!

Guest Comic Strip by Dustin Reese

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Friday, May 28, 2010,
This great guest comic strip is by Dustin Reese!  He writes and illustrates the comic, Plus One!  Tsk, tsk, oh Rianne... she may be right but she's gotta learn to keep her mouth shut sometimes.  Or at least whisper...

Plus One follows Desmond and Violet as they weed through the many pregnancy myths and legends, discovering just what its like to be an expecting parent (and lately, what it's like to be new parents)!  Just a few of the obstacles standing between their success include telling f...

Guest Comic Strip by Cátia Ana da Silva

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Tuesday, May 25, 2010,
This guest comic strip is by the talented Cátia Ana da Silva from Brazil!  She is the writer and artist of O Diário de Virgínia!  I wonder about how effective this form of anesthetic would be... but it sure seems to be working for Virginia!

O Diário de Virgínia is a gorgeously illustrated online story written in Portuguese.  It features Virginia and the fantastic and sometimes nonsensical world written within her diary!  Cátia Ana describes Virginia as a poor girl who has lost her way, a...

Guest Comic Strip by Shawn Williams

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Friday, May 21, 2010,
This brilliant Callous guest comic strip is by Supe and Indy's Shawn Williams!  I can imagine how flabbergasted Rianne must have been after this but I admit that I can't stand waiting rooms too!

Supe and Indy is a monthly comic series published in Comics Buyer's Guide!  It features Supe, a famous retired Super-Hero, and Indy, an underappreciated everyman!  Check out their amazing (and hilarious) misadventures in Shawn's blogSupe and Indy is by Blayne Belter and Shawn Williams and you can f...

Guest Comic by George Ford

Posted by Carlo Jose San Juan, MD on Wednesday, May 19, 2010,
This great guest comic is by Addanac City's George Ford!  Poor Cal Duck!  He may mean well, but he needs to know when to let the good doctor be!

Addanac City by George Ford stars Hank Addanac, an endearing kid whose every step hilariously disturbs the very fabric of peaceful life like a tornado!  In his wake are his family and friends who not only have to play damage control but may realize that maybe, just maybe there's a little Hank in each of them!  Furthermore, even amidst the destruction,...
