9/28 jurascals world comic strip (3rd in series-(free one for the web i did just to support friends in Nebraska)
Proud of the good folks wearing red (including my inlaws) who spoke from their hearts and with knowledge and unafraid to speak their mind in Lincoln yesterday. They were not paid. They were not bused in and it is clear that a compromise (moving the route of the pipeline) solves both the environmental issue and the jobs issue.

JURASCALS WORLD EDITION: ONE DAY AWAY
This is super short notice but given the timeliness of the Nebraska meetings with the state department on the XL pipeline, I would be remiss if I didn't start a story in Nebraska that didn't address that topic, so although I was going to put a lot of lead time to beginning a JURASCALS WORLD EDITION venture, instead I'm putting it out there RIGHT AWAY (starting TOMORROW!!!)

JURASCALS WORLD EDITION: PART ONE: Information!
JURASCALS WORLD EDITION: IT WILL BEGIN 10/3/2011! Read below:
Jurascals is a black and white daily adventure comic strip printed exclusively in the comics page of the print and e-subcription service of the Auburn Citizen, the newspaper of record in Auburn, New York. It's really a superb newspaper with excellent writers and photographers and it is my privilege to continue a wonderful Jurascals story on their comics page. What's fun about the Jurascals comic strip is that the characters live IN Auburn and the storyline revolves around the happenings there in the Fingerlakes region! Now as the Jurascals comic strip is only available in the print edition and e-subscription, readers outside the area may not have seen the work.
As it so happens within the Jurascals storyline, a skunk showed up, wreaked a little havoc and then created a steampunk "airship" without bothering to learn how to fly or land it! So Skunk is winding up flying where he had not planned and will wind up in NEBRASKA landing his ship on what appears to be the rock formation called Jailhouse rock! What happens next? Well, the storyline in Auburn continues as Lina and Dinosaur get ready for Halloween and go trick or treating (I can't wait to share Dinosaur's costume with you!)
But what about Skunk? What happens to him?
Skunk will begin his own adventure in the Great Plains and meet new friends (including a large, somewhat grumpy stegasaurus-remember JURASCALS are rascally dinosaurs, so of course there had to be more than just one DINOSAUR!)
As the reader can see in the promo picture above, Skunk going to jump into a hot topic of debate-a pipeline across the Sandhills and aquifer. This concept will be featured prominently as he learns to love the Great Plains and yearns to protect it! Warning: Skunk isn't an environmentalist....at least not yet, what do you think would make him become one? I think it will be an interesting story as we find out!
(the above is the twitter profile pic for @JURASCALSWORLD)
I hope you like the story. If you do, please follow it on twitter at @jurascalsworld or like it on facebook/jurascals and PLEASE share it with friends. This is MEANT to be shared across social media-please do so! It is a very special hope that readers in the Great Plains (especially Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, South Dakota, Wyoming area for now) will enjoy this story that celebrates the wonderful area of the country where you live!
And now all readers outside the Auburn area can read their fill of a jurascals line while those who are in the Auburn, NY area can enhance their Jurascals experience with DOUBLE the Jurascals per day!
More information to follow!
