That Old Goat

One Last Blast to the Past...

2009-07-08T15:21:00.000-07:00

I know I promised you guys some new strips and they are coming. But, today I have a long lost That Old Goat that has never been seen. Most of the original strips were redone for the GSU Signal. But I skipped this one because it was a rehash of both the baby strip and the bean strip and I didn't like the fact that the goat thought thought so much.

Here it is:

The end of an era (that era being composed of retreads, reruns, and rehashed ideas)

Here it is. The last of the GSU Signal That Old Goats. Well not technically the last strip produced, but the last posted in the world wide net. As such, this particular strip has taken on a kind of personal significance for me.

That's right true believers! I too have been looking in my fridge for something to eat. Going forward, I'll be posting all new TOGs plus a couple of new strips I've been developing. Until then, thanks for reading and keep on trucking. Or some such nonsense.

A true quandry...

This weeks strip actually features a mystery of the universe I pondered throughout college.
I tried to pose this very question to none other than comedian Steve Martin at a lecture he gave at the Atlanta College of Art. I was drowned out however by people asking questions about ridiculous topics like his writing process, getting published, acting, etc. Art students can be such killjoys.

FOR ALL THE LADIES IN THE HOUSE! (AND CDB.)

Due to complaints about last weeks strip not really featuring TOG, this classic is all about him.

Can eating. Goat behavior at it's best.

In honor of my sister dropping in to visit, here is That Old Goat featuring her:
In a crazy twist of fate, she actually saved a snail from being stepped on outside my apartment last night.

Some more classics for my devoted followers, all both of you.

This is actually the last strip I did for Georgia State's Signal newspaper. I never actually planned to do a Sandee the Cheerleader strip but it's a three panel joke and I had to fill up the last panel with something. The other option was Shaved Bear, which was a bear that had all his hair removed and tried to blend into society. That's bear as in animal, not burly gay dude.

THE DAY I GET OFF MY ASS.

What is this? A year later? More? Well, I have no excuse. But I do have a classic strip to put up. So here you go:

Also, to my man Bart Byrom, I swear that new strips are coming. I am a working man, so I can't just take time off from band practice and micro-brewing to do my art thang', but I am devoted to puting up at least twenty new strips before the end of the year.

AHA BITCHES...

It is about to be on! Thanks to a sweet ass deal at best buys, I' am now the proud owner of one top of the line laptop AND wireless scanner/ printer. The Goat is about to over flow... best hike up your pants and get fired up! What?

Originals part 2

Here's the second installment of the original "That Old Goat" I think the idea for this one came from Marian Vas Savant or whatever her name is from Parade Magazine. Apparently goats climb trees and get stuck in them. Or I just made that up in my brain. Anywho, Goat in the second panel is probably the best profile I've done of him. As with the last strip, the goat here is less cartoony. These first two strips ended up on a t-shirt for my man "Bart" Byrom, who probably uses it to wash cars nowadays.

Bah Humbug you Ninnys!

Here it is. The first finished "That Old Goat" from back in '96-97. This was before I came up with Baron Von Bones and the Goat mostly just existed in the real world. I really like this version of the Goat. Later, he takes on more of a cartoon quality, but here he just looks like a mean old bastard.

My company just got a scanner which I will promptly put to use doing things it was not meant for. Thank you abuse of company assets without regard for company policies. You have truly made me happy. And now this...

No, it's not from That Old Goat, but it is a pretty cool picture of skeletons. I think this might be a cut scene from the first season of Lost. Supposedly, this is what was originally down that hatch. These skeletons and whole bunch of Big League Chew. Personally, I think the producers blew it big time.

All I wanted to do was reply to friend's blog but now I'm roped into doing one myself? This internet thing is worse than homework. Now I have to be witty and relevent atleast once a day. Well, hopefully I will use this waste of resource (thank you Joel) to e-publish or e-print or whatever the soon to be classic Comic Strip That Old Goat. For those of you who are unfamiliar, go soak your head. For the rest of you, I hope you appreciate the time I have to take out of my very busy day of surfing the interweb, hanging out on the beach and building dune buggys to bring a little sunshine into your miserable little lives.

No more daisy breaks for me then,
