I did art for a deck series for Bacon Skateboards. Ask for them at your local skateshop. I also did a mini ‘zine for them as a catalog. You can download it from my (12.5MB) Bodyslam page print it two-sided and follow the instructions to make your own. Bacon is also printing a bunch so you might be able to get it from them.

I saw this set of boards down at Rip City. They look sweet! Very nice job Conahan!

You can almost get a sense of the continuous image, I put a couple of the boards in the wrong order, fixed it here. I was going for a sunday funnies idea. I think they look great and I’m grateful to Bacon Skateboards for the opportunity.

What you don’t see in this photo (because they are out of order) is that they all overlap a little, making one big pic. Much cooler in person.

Yes,I noticed that right away but I didn’t feel like mentioning it.
With every board,the comic shifts one row,but does it make one continuous story?
Clever me…

Naw, I wanted them to stand alone. I originally had them surrounded by random comic frames but I like how they work together now.

I ment Mister Conahan…

That’s funny;if you hang them on your wall and you want to see the big picture,they need to overlap bigtime.
But seriously very nice work Conahan.Congrats!

Well, yes. Colin knows I’m not a fan of his art direction, and its all in good fun. Why, did you do some of their art?

I never once liked their art. Skulls and blood! Oh my! It’s well drawn, but played out.
I do dig most of Merde’s stuff though. Except that goofy pig. He’s a tool.

I do, however, like this comic series quite a bit.
