Description
Hey Everyone!Look! LOOK!! It's the start of a brand new, bouncing, beatuful, baby DEAD DAYS SERIES!!! Bitchin eh?
Yep, this one's gonna be about something everyone will no doubt try to get out of sooner or later. That's right, the dreaded JURY DUTY. Trust me, it's funner than you think. Well, it will be in Dead Days anyway. So sit back and watch the funnies develop. I'm thinking this is gonna a nice healthy 8 parter, so stay tuned!
While I'm suuuuper busy with finishing up school, job hunting and graphic designing up the wazoo, I'ma try to keep this series up. But please, cut me some slack, at least for a month or so. Don't worry though, I'll try and post as regularly as possible! Thanks as always for reading and making Dead Days fun to write and draw!
-John
P.S. You know I still have a few Dead Days books left! If you wanna get in on the action, go here: [link]

usually jury duty do not last more than a few days. Most of the time, the people involved in the trial settle out of court. Then the jury panel gets to go home. The actual jury is taken from the jury panel.

The cartoon is great, and really funny. Th expression of the guy is sooo funny !
But I'd probably like it better if I knew what a "Jury duty" is... Help for Non-American people here please ?

Hey Ithiluir,
Here in America, the county court system calls people at random and forces them to be a juror during a court trial (that's where you sit, listen to a trial and at the end, you and a bunch of people get to decided whether the guy is guilty or not guity). Thing is, the trial sometimes lasts DAYS AND DAYS, so you have to miss out on work and school and life in general! And you HAVE TO DO IT. If you don't, it's baaad news for you. So thats that. Funnier now?

You continue to rule! This is one of the funniest comics EVER.

Priceless, dammit. Priceless.
So priceless that *docwholigan and myself decided to ensure that you have an LJ interest group . Cool, innit?
...
Well, okay, not really, since it's just the two of us and it's an unbelievably geeky thing to do, but, y'know, if you ever need people to come stand behind you waving banners and wearing those nifty beer hats chanting your name while you're drawing. Well.
I think I need to leave before I make a bigger ass of myself.
Or as doc puts it, 'I'm sure he'll be moderately impressed by the depths we'll sink to in his name. Perhaps he'd like us to make a sacrifice.'

You hit the nail right on the head. Uncle Sam should join the military. With a swift kick to Saddams nuts similar to the cartoon, the whole Iraq conflict would have been avoided.

Can I pre-order issue #2?
P.S. I brought your first one to class and now a friend wants a copy. Man, I say you make the next one a color issue, or at least every 20th one... maybe the cover? anyways
