Not Another Paintball Comic

Psychedelic Squirrels is a paintball comic strip I originally started back in 1994. It was an on again off again product for YEARS. But over those years, I lost most of the finished strips. Here and there I would come across many of the sketch pages, or even the inked frames, but never the final product.

I found my Old Paintball Comic Strip!

So, I was digging through my old archive disks (most are zip 100′s but a few are cd rom) and found a directory called Cold Coffee. This was good news, as my original comic strip was called Cold Coffee, and when I first started the Squirrels they went by the same name. Well, long story short, I found a stash of old Paintball Comic Strips.

I have taken to posting them at both The Funniez and my Paintball Gun blog.

Rather than breaking this up into a hundred separate posts I will drop a few here in order, but you can go to either of the other sites to see them as I release them.
