Looks like a lot has been going on since CM got back from the Isle of Terror doesn't it? For those of you that may or may not remember, the character in panel 2 on the left made his first (and up to this point only) appearance back on December 9th, 2010 in TOACM #069 called "Internal Affairs".

As for the other two cops with him, you'll find out more about them soon enough. Stay tuned.

On a separate note I'd like to add a friendly reminder that if you haven't ordered your MSU Comics Forum Squid-Girl print you can do so here at FOOD-O's, the official Tales of a Checkered Man online storefront, as well as a few other odds and ends. Quantities are limited!

That's all for this week. We continue with the Changing of the Guard next week!

If you enjoyed this week's comic, I humbly ask you to please share it with your friends, family and followers via email, Facebook, Twitter, Google+ or whatever social media site is cool this week. Thank you!

Jose and I have talked back and forth on occasion for, what seems like, at least a good year on getting his take on a TOACM character for Fan-Art Friday. I'm very happy that he decided upon Squid-Girl. If you'd like to look at more art by Jose, you can check him out in several places on the ol' interweb including: random-art.tumblr.com, jagimpulse.blogspot.com, or jaglab.worpress.com.

Here are a couple pics of the new and improved Exotic City skyline which will also include branded signs, buildings, etc. of various EC locations like the Blue Coal Club, Food-O's, Glady's Diner, the ChetCo. Tower, and CM's favorite rooftop. Enjoy!

Pigeons not included.
