Sorry about the errors over at Antigravity Press. Gate.com says they’re working on a permanent fix for the database errors. Until then, I’ll be posting Hopeless Old Men On Skateboards over a The Skate Comics Depository also in case AGP is down.
F-Word! This took me even longer to do. I was even looking at some of his body positions in previous comics instead of scribbling from scratch. And, yes, I copied and pasted his head on the voodoo doll directly from another comic. And no, don’t worry. I promise I am not going to make this a regular feature. Sure is fun though.
See, I can do this just as well, if not better. Mark who?
But seriously folks… It’s been a long run, and I’m sad to see the H.O.M.O.S. go. This stupid comic took me half a day to make.
Hopeless Old Men On Skateboards are moving back in with their parents. Conahan will continue to post his precious photos, skatepark advocacy announcements and reports of our silly little scene here at SnA (although when I told him, Kilwag said I was dead to him now).
If you hated having to see those terrible drawings with the unfunny jokes when all you wanted was EBay Watch, Grover’s Video Korner or the latest skateboard influenced cultural phenomenon - good riddance! If you enjoy it, you’ll find it over at Antigravity Press.
I never know what sort of reactions a post will get. Sometimes I can be spot on with a prediction, and other times when I hesitate to make a particular post, the comments flood in when it goes live. I made a quick public service announcement on Friday about the opening of Gabriel Park skate park, and it touched a nerve. Shortly thereafter I received a comic from a source that wishes to remain anonymous. All things considered, it’s pretty damned funny, so I’m posting it.

Boardistan is reporting that Bones Brigade understudy Ray Underhill passed away this morning after a long battle with a brain tumor. Sean Mortimor is credited as the source, but so far no official word on the Ray Underhill site, or Eastern Skate Supply, where he worked. For what it’s worth, our condolences to his family and friends. Classic Ray Underhill in the best scene from Animal Chin after the jump. This “Ska-dack” is for you! - Thanks to Enemy Combatant (!!) for the tip. UPDATE: Official word posted on the Ray Underhill site - Leave your condolences on the bulletin board.
