Dropping the anvil

Happy New Year Everybody!

I would love to say that one of my New Year resolutions would be a more frequent updating of this blog with news from the world of crossovers and cameos... unforttunately it ain's so, almost the opposite in fact... :(

But, there WILL be updated in 2010, as many as I can manage to get in, just can't say anything about how and when... Bear with me...

Now, one thing I can start with is a tricky little April's Fool joke from about a decade ago and brought to my attention by friendly submitter Corruption.

It took place in a College News Paper where 4 strips, of which 3 hit the net later on, played an April's Joke involving a falling anvil which went from the top strip to hit the character in the bottom... passing through two other strips on its way.

The whole story about the making of the original crossover is actually told here, and on the net the anvil's fall can be followed from Tonja Steele, through Jackie's Fridge to finally strike JoBeth.

The whole page as it originally showed up can be seen here

Always worth revisiting this particular crossover - I still remember it so well from back when!!

Wow, whatever happened to those guys?
JoBeth ended and Tonja and Jackie just.... froze.
Any word from across the net?

Yeah, I'm afraid there's not news from the frozen wastes of that part of the net, at least for Tonja Steel and Jackie's Fridge... wonder if they left the fridge open for long? :/

Jobeth left for Framed during The Great Escape and showed up there for a time in Damonk's sequel... which seems to be lost at the moment :/

No damage done

Corruption here. Did you REALLY think you could mention me, and I would not know?
I can't get the original page with all four comics, but I can say that since the anvil hit Jo-Beth's head, no damage was done.
