apple cow episode 1: selective survey

not sure where this will reside just yet, so there's no better place to talk about it than the forum for comics i make that aren't called zelda comic. a few years ago, i found a bunch of pictures i drew in my youthful days. mostly cows (boy oh boy did i like cows as a kid). i scanned in everything i could find for posterity, and very quickly realized that these would be fun to use as artwork in a clipart comic. fast forward, like, years, and i finally get around to making it happen! please enjoy the probably-ongoing adventures of apple cow and friends!

    I hope Professor Dinosaur makes a cameo!

    I've never heard of a kid being into cows. Then again I've never really asked any.

    This is great, I look forward to more apple centric barnyard adventures.

    Never heard of a kid being into cows?

    Back in the day on the 4th grade playground, cows were THE BEST. For EVERYONE.

    Nice comic by the way.

    Back in high school in my friend group, it was considered a sign of affection to draw a cow for your significant other.

    Oh sure, that's normal high school stuff, and farm animals are always tied to such relationships. But for a little kid?

    Man, that's gotta be some kinda record for 'fastest comic remixed'. And also 'fastest comic series remixed'. Two-for-one!

    my mom tells me the third word i ever spoke was "cow" (after "mama" and "dada"). it probably helps that she worked on a dairy farm for many years, so i had a lot of early exposure to cows. they had a male calf there once which i named "mario cow" (before they shipped him off on account of somewhat lacking milk production). this book is on my bookshelf right now. but yeah, i've always been something of a fan.

    dayamn, jeff, you remixed the whole dang series in one fell swoop! nicely done!

    If we keep it up we can have more remixes than actual comics!

    Also, mario totally needs to use this as the comic's theme song.

    I made a remix of Jeff's remix. I am not funny this week! Do not make me remix things if you want them to be funny!

    So it turns out Mario was always an avid mac fan.

    And that I don't check whether everything is lined up when I save an animated gif.

    I kind of like it better with your name bouncing around all over the place.

    Actually it appears that mario's lifelong dream was to install Mac OS onto a Gateway PC.

    Oh man, we still have those cow spot boxes. Microsoft Bob!
  • edited April 2008
    Bob I hardly knew ye. In fact I can say I never even knew about it until well after it was a thing of the past. It sounded like it was probably a good thing.
  • edited April 2008
    I love Bob. It was like Windows XP ahead of its time, but you could have as many desktops as you wanted and decorate each one with furniture. Too bad its security was crap (asks if you want to change your password if you get it wrong twice) and it can't open programs that change the resolution.

    Still, I'd love to see an update. Bob never got past 1.0.

    Me and my brothers used to spend hours just making houses and stuff. It was such a great game-- er, application.
