   The airhorn bit is way too obnoxious. Even for Jim.

   Funny. But I cold opens don’t usually begin with a talking head interview.

   Absolutely spectacular work. I loved every second of it. Loved Dwight’s “tired” look.

   How cool would it be if NBC recognized this somehow as a DVD extra or use in the show or something?

   Thanks, Cayce! Haha – Gollum. I suppose if someone took his bobblehead, he’d go on a quest for his “precious”.
   To answer a couple of questions – it took like 15 minutes to write and 12 hours to draw…so as far as requests go…maybe not :)
   As far as writing for The Office…I’m sure Greg Daniels will be calling me any day now…yeah…riiiiight.
   Thanks to all for the compliments and critiques…I’ll try to do something again soon!

    Oh…I also needed to mention that Dwight almost looks like Gollum in that last image. Hehehe. Awesome work!

    Hey Ken, I just now had time to read it and it’s GREAT!!! Wonderful job! Very spot on. I love tiny image of Pam in the background watching Jim (subtle). I loved it. Make more, please.

    Wow, that was fantastic. I could totally see that in an episode, especially the part about signing the letter as “Mr. President.” And the artwork is great as well.

    Nice work, Ken. Yeah, totally enjoyed Jim’s expressions and Dwight’s keyboard face!

    Amazing![/kelly]
    Now, Ken… do you take requests? ;) I have a lovely cold open from a fanfic/fanscript that I wrote and I would love to see a visual version of it.

    Wow! That’s really really good!
    The only thing that creeped me out though was that Jim looked like he had a bad sunburn in the first panel…
    Anyways, it was SO FUNNY!

    You are so talented Ken! I especially enjoyed the part about Dwight shooting the possum and Mose making a stew out of it and the potato that was used to shoot it. Priceless! It is totally something that Dwight and Mose would do.
