Incontinent Consequences

Wow, what a day it turned out to be in Dallas, TX today. We had some serious snow and ice, which the city has a hard time dealing with. I think we only have one sand truck in the whole metroplex, so I was playing Ice Road Trucker today.

As you probably noticed, there is no snow in Jim Corn. It is currently late summer in the strip. Eventually I hope to catch up and reflect the seasons. Probably after Jim’s appearance as a vegetable entry at the County Fair (coming soon).

As always, you can e-mail me at michael@prankstercomics.com. You can also leave your comments on the Amaizing Jim Corn facebook page. Thanks for checking in on Jim!

Yer In Trouble

A while back I tried my hand at animating Jim (back when I was drawing him with three fingers). Here he is walking on the wild side. (He walks around the world pretty fast.) JimCornWalk

Last night my wife was reading before bed and I, my mind still buzzing, started blurting out all kinds of goofy details about Jim Corn and stories I have planned. As my wife answered me with the “MmHmm” of someone who wants to get back to their book, I suddenly realized how crazy my talk was about a sentient corn and that no other husband in the world was having this conversation. I busted out laughing and told her how lucky she is. She could have a husband who wants to tell her about his golf game!

Secret Origin

Was interviewed today at PPAI headquarters (Promotional Products Association International) and got a tour of their building and promotional products museum display. For those who don’t know, promotional products (also known as swag, chotchkies, giveaways, etc.) are those free items you get with a business logo on them.

As I look around my office, I see lots of the stuff: local fire department color-change pencil with fireman hat eraser, Warner Brothers pocket mirror with Batman, Superman, Bugs Bunny and Scooby Doo on it, Office Depot big rubberband, old Frito Bandito pencil topper, various Green Lantern rings, triangle-shaped box of crayons from Uncle Julio’s, calendar from J.J. Collins Printers, Chick Fil-A and Dallas Morning News pencils, a screen cleaner mitt, a cell phone holder, and a PromoDoctors (my company) memo clip/hi-lighter. This cool stuff is free, fun, handy and it exposes us daily to a particular brand or brand message.

At the museum display, I learned that things really have changed in the promotional products industry. Today, a cool giveaway can be a mini flash drive or iPad cover. There’s no longer as much call for the giveaway pocket knives, ice picks or ink blotters of yesteryear. Or buttons that say “Vote NO for Women’s Suffrage.” (They really had one!)

I am currently dreaming of the day when Jim Corn Talking Corn Skewers are a top selling promotional product. I should call “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” and let them get on the ground floor with this. I hope I can fit their logo on the back of each skewer.
