Conahan: Who needs him?
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.

So funny. You just nailed it. Such clever insights. Conawho?
why is the HOMOS going away killey? money issues? large egos? thats why the eagles are business only these days!
Mark is the president of the local chapter of the Brian Beardsley fan club, and he was pissed that I didn’t know who he was. We had a spirited argument, and In the heat of the moment, some things were said that we both regret, and now the comics will now be posted on Earth Patrol Media instead.
Har, har, It’s Mark’s decision. Nobody gets paid here (including me). I think he just wants to keep it pure and not have to deal with some of the asinine comments he gets from the much wider audience we have on Skate and Annoy. I don’t understand completely, but it’s not up to me. Mark is still going to be around. We haven’t had a falling out or anything, unless you count the bails at last night’s session.
Best comic ever! You should make it a regular feature.
[…] Old Men On Skateboards will be moving back to their parents house. Kilwag did this send off over at Skate and […]
This is all enemy combatant’s fault isn’t it?
I don’t care where you guy’s end up, I will be stalking all of you.
I think you invented a new trick in frame one.
yeah… reverse tuck knee?
We want them back. How about just pirate them over? It seems to have worked well for other stuff in the past right? : )
I don’t blame ya, but fk the trolls MC. Your comics only piss people off because they’re true, and/or they don’t get the joke. Keep up the great work!
Kilwag, don’t quit yer day job. 🙂
First Bill Watterson and Gary Larson and now this? Guess it’s back to getting angry at the Family Circus for me. I never get the freaking Family Circus. It’s just some kid making a statement that is neither witty nor interesting. The only entertainment value in the Family Circus is marveling at how lame it is.
cold ones, what about for better or for worse? i always marvel at that lameness, and then there was the quigmans, which was a direct copy of the far side without the wit or humor.
Come on, “Cathy” has to be the all time lamest comic that was supposed to be funny.
i have an old mummies 7 inch comp called “fuck you spaceman”–its got some great comic parodies on the back, the ones that come to mind are “screw-ann” and “garfuck”…
I stopped reading Cathy like 15 years ago. It really blows. Too much dialogue to deal with. The only comics I skip in the newspaper are Cathy, Rex Morgan and Sally Forth.
oh so you read for better or for worse? sorry if i offended anyone who thinks that tripe is funny.
but cmon, rex morgan md? he has the cure for my daily blues!
for what its worth, the lockhorns was the greatest.
Get Fuzzy. #2 behind HOMOS. Dilbert makes me laugh, in a sad way, because it mimics life at a university job way too much.
“This is all enemy combatant
HOMOS was the only comic I read reguarly, aside from to see if Pearls Before Swine had published the crocodiles trying to eat their zeeba neighba. I don’t even skate, I just visit this site because Kilwag was a delectable co-worker.
I guess it shows that Fox 12 news really can get the better of you!
Best of luck, Conahan.

Refer to my comment about the comic that I likened to a WWII propaganda poster. I’ll take this post of yours at its face value and continue to assume that you aren’t an over-sensitive prima donna, just an excellent cartoonist.
