Yep, 2009 was a great Halloween thanks to Neil! The sketch I received will always be my favorite, and I won't be parting with it.
WOW! I've never seen that one before! Can you imagine if that had been in color?
If I was a kid, I would come back and hit your house a couple more times. Wacky Packages for Halloween would be terrific! When I was a kid, in Logansport, Indiana, some of the older folks got a bit touchy about kids coming back a second time (remember it was before "Fun Size" candy bars so people had a little more invested per Trick-or-Treater). My best friend and I would wear costumers where, after the 1st round, we could swap out some items and go back to the houses with good treats looking differently. We would also use our Thing-Makers before Halloween and make up a bunch or bugs and hand them out where we got good stuff. One guy on our block simply gave out quarters. In 1967, this was great for an 8 year old. A small fortune.
That is exactly what I told my wife! She said I was nuts and that no kid would go to all that trouble. Had I been a kid, I would have returned multiple times and on both nights. I gotta admit with the porch lights low and a gaggle of opened bags, sacks and plastic pumpkins thrust in my direction all at once, I could have given out to the same kid or kids multiple times and not known it. Oh well, more Wackys for everyone!
What a cool sketch! That vehicle has some groovy personality, and I like that the Bot’s nose and ears match the lug nuts. Like a find Waldo puzzle, Neil’s signature on the front license plate was a bit tricky to find!
and 1 more!
My favorite one of those '09 Halloween Neil sketches was Botland. I just love that one for some reason. It's one of the few I'd trade my "candy corn" sketch for.
Here's more of the Halloween '09 sketches
Cool, I had the first 39 sketches saved on my computer. Is this the first time the other 13 have been posted?I don't remember seeing them before. I have them ALL saved now. Thanks again, I just love mine.
I think this is the first time for all of the final 13. I had saved the first 39, and then a couple of the final ones, but it's great to be able to save them all!
I guess you're right! I had forgotten to post the last batch last year. Oops!
