As Dad and Son head to Broadway, we publish our 96th Because I Said So comic strip. We are approaching our 100th comic strip and we will soon release our Kickstarter Book Campaign for a commemorative book celebrating that milestone and including all 100 comic strips, a history of its development, and a step-by-step how-to guide from VoogDesigns on how he illustrates these strips so marvelously! Number 96 is about a visit to New York where Dad is reminiscing while Son is just LOVING IT!
Take a peek into the upcoming Kickstarter Campaign for the Because I Said So comic strip! It will soon reach its centennial, with 100 original comic strips written by Bruce Sallan and beautifully illustrated by Michael Voogd (VoogDesigns). YOU can participate in our production of a beautiful hard-cover coffee table book that includes all 100 comic strips, the evolution and history of the strip, and a step-by-step illustrated guide to the making of the comic strip. The prizes we will offer “Investors” are unique from personal inscriptions to your own caricature. At the higher levels, you can “earn” an appearance on the “A Dad’s Point-of-View” radio show and more. Stay tuned for the formal video and Kickstarter campaign!
The generations collide yet again as Dad gets down – way down – while attending The Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco with Son. Dad references Woodstock to which Son is lost. Heck, Son wishes he was really lost – away from Dad and “his moves!” Of course, everyone knows that I’m NOT That Dad, though I did happen to attend Outside Lands. Enjoy The Best of Outside Lands 2013, a 12-minute highlights video and A Taste of Paul, short clips from Paul McCartney’s nearly 3-hour opening night performance.
This is our 93rd Because I Said So comic strip, written by me and illustrated by VoogDesigns. We will be starting a Kickstarter campaign for our commemorative book honoring the first 100 comics. The prizes to be offered will be special so, stay tuned! We talked about The Entitlement Generation at #DadChat – read the transcript and add to the discussion!
Sibling rivalry is as old as mankind; as old as the Bible. Because I Said So takes a humorous look at sibling rivalry in our 89th comic strip.
Last week’s Because I Said So looked at The Generation Gap from “Dad’s” point-of-view. This week we see it from “Son’s” point-of-view with the art of multitasking. It’s only fair!
Son is watching television – he loves Broadway and Theatre – with Dad, who asks what he’s watching. Son says, “The Tony’s” and Dad is totally lost and confused…again.
Again, I MUST remind you that I’m NOT That Dad (which is just the name of my weekly vlogs)! This comic script, however, was inspired by my younger son attending his prom. “Dad” tries to take a photo of his dashing-looking son thinking that he, “Dad,” is in fact a technology geniusl.
