FREE TIME: “For your father, who is a mountain-lover, Free Time is a necessity while he is climbing.”

Rich Watson runs the movie blog Wide Screen World and has been making comics for many years. His newest webcomic, City Mouse Makes a Movie, got off to an intriguing start a couple of weeks ago. Read it here.

Free Time is still available (the candy bar, I mean; but I’m also of the opinion that it’s always possible to make free time for the important things) and still marketed to outdoorsy dads.

You must keep in mind, the All Your Base reference was pretty fresh at the time.

Ben Steckler writes: Egad!  I really have to stop sketching when I drink at conventions. …or stop drinking when I sketch at conventions… or stop convening when I drink wearing skechers. Part of my twelve steps will have to be apologizing to all the fellow artists whose sketchbooks I’ve befouled over the years.   It’s a good thing I have the Skechers,  because those are going to be twelve LONG steps. My name is Ben T. Steckler and I’m a hack cartoonist.

Ben is the creator of SKA-Toons, Get BenT!, Unshaven Chi, f-Artjoke and many more comics. He’s been performing stand-up comedy in recent years.

Egg Cookie is translated as “Egg Biscuit” nowadays.
