Party 2001

If your browser barfs on this long strip, try horizontal scrolling at different speeds, or see this version. I set this up as 5 images in an html table because my browser (IE5) wouldn't display a single 4000-pixel wide image correctly... If you enjoy unusually dimensioned comics, you might also enjoy my earlier strips It's a Long Way Down and Battle Cry Manhattan (October 4). The whole notion here was a chaotic scene with the countdown to midnight. At midnight in each of our 5 parts of the story, David & John's spaceship malfunctions causing a time loop thingie and thus the next part again repeats the events up to midnight.

I had a blast drawing all these cameos and numerous weird little in-jokes which I won't even begin to attempt to explain.
