All right, so this is page 60 of SLAM-A-RAMA, otherwise known as the halfway point of this story! Whew! As promised, to commemorate this occasion, we're gonna have a little contest. One lucky winner, drawn at random, will receive a WWE Survivor Series DVD from 2004. According to the back cover, "WWE Superstars are artists. The ring is their canvas. This is going to be a masterpiece of mayhem." So, basically, it's an art film, I guess? Anyway, the winner will also receive an original drawing of the SLAM-A-RAMA character of their choice. All you have to do is leave a comment below, or send an email to dkhowlett@hotmail.com with the phrase "Page 60 Contest" in the subject line. The winner will be drawn one and announced one week from today, on Thursday, July 15! Good luck, and thanks for reading SLAM-A-RAMA!

Oh yeah, I'm also going to be on CBC's Mainstreet this Monday, the 12th of July, to discuss the comic, around 5:30 Halifax time! Listen in as I try not to make a complete jackass out of myself.

This is exciting--this was the very first scene I worked on when I first sat down to write the script for what would eventually become SLAM-A-RAMA. I didn't know where I wanted the story to begin yet, and the structure of the whole thing was still sort of nebulous to me at that point, but I knew I wanted to have a scene like this one in there so I just sat down and started writing it. The whole Bobby Bullhorn sequence remains my favourite scene in the whole story, and I'm glad other people can finally see it starting!

Thanks for sticking with me so far--we're only five pages away from the halfway point of the whole graphic novel now, and I'm considering doing some sort of contest when we hit Page 60. More on that as it develops.
