Conahan: Who needs him? (Part 2)

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 […]

Miami skatepark open forum

No, this is not just an excuse to see how many classic post punk album covers I can (in this case, poorly) Photoshop that yellow skateboard into. There’s a community meeting for Miami Beach residents about renovating and enhancing some public facilities. One thing on the agenda is a “new cultural multi-purpose skate plaza.” No […]

Friday T&A on S&A: Skateboard Thong

Ladies, get your skateboard thong from the London France Underpants Company, who have been “Sewing panties for the Las Vegas Showgirls for YEARS! And…Now sewing panties for The Bunnies at The World’s Only Playboy Club!” This sort of thing would be a huge hit at Union Jack’s. And no, I don’t have a picture of […]

Sneakers & Lace

Skateboardin’ USA was released in 1978 by a “band” called Sneakers & Lace. My guess is that it was just some producer’s project designed to cash in on a fad. Instead of just doing a single, they really ran with it. Where are the skateboard novelty songs of today? Oh yeah, that’s right. You can […]

Skateboard, skateboard, skateboard

This is exactly the kind of thing that I don’t want diluted by the mere presence of a bunch of skateboard comics. It’s a Beetlejuice Magic Slate with a picture of Beeltejuice on a skateboard. What, no coffin shape? Looks like he’s riding switch. It can be yours for a mere $58 ?!?! You can […]

80s skate zine archives - Preparation S #2

80’s Zine Archives: Preparation S #2 AKA Preperation S

Somehow I missed this one, so I’m posting these out of order. This is actually the mispelled issue that was the precursor to “The Correctly Spelled Issue.” So maybe I should call it “Preperation S.” Excerpted from issue 2 “Interview: My DAD”: AAA – When did you first not skate? D- I’d say about June […]

Roof to roof

Pointless Pics. This is Gabe Stoltz transferring from roof to roof. Does that count as street skating? I just noticed he’s got two different pant legs. Click to enlarge.

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.

Hopeless

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 […]
