Chris and I are running around in Galactus Hats and fake Dragonball Z hair at Comic Con, so mega giant ups to Diana Nock of The Intrepid Girl Bot for giving us a hand.
We met Diana independently or her great webcomic, hanging out in Memphis many moons ago.
She’s trying to fund a research trip to New England this fall so please, check her stuff out and give moneys. I know this is “The Economy” but help a girl out.
Oh, and look for us at SDCC if you’re here! We are walking around looking dumb.
1) At Comics Alliance’s behest, we have condensed 70+ years of Hawk-history into nine panels (complete with colorful illustrations AND words).
We hope you’ll enjoy it.
2) As you may or may not know, Curt and I live in Memphis. The Memphis Flyer is the local free weekly that has previously done story about us and for this we love them.
I am nominated in the category of “Best local Twitterer” and there is a write-in category that Curt told me to suggest that you should write us in for “Best Local Webcomic”. If you would like to support us in this fashion, please feel free to do so.
Yo! We suck at updating our own site, so go check out a thing we did for Comics Alliance right HERE.
And leave a comment. It makes us look popular.
LBFA reader “Ted” made this from our latest comic.
There are no words.
Since tomorrow’s comic is going to be a little late, I thought I’d share this with you guys to make it up to you.
I think that line is the thesis statement of All Star Superman.
I’m planning to get it as a tattoo at some point.
The first single from Adam WarRock, aka Eugene, aka Joran van der Sloot has dropped like a glass of water from my hand after something astonishing has happened – something like me listening to this track and saying “OH SHIT”.
Go HERE and give the dude some money for the song. Check out all the other free music while you’re there. And check out the art on the single. Is it familiar? Does it make you feel better inside? Oh yes, you guessed it, it’s done by LBFA’s own Chris Haley! Whaaaat!
Everybody likes to talk about supporting small artists, so try to give a dollar to WarRock if you can. He’ll use it to make more songs, then you give more dollars, and this is what we call “trickle down raponomics”.
Heroes Con was absolutely fantastic this year for the LBFA boys, and I’m sure there’ll be more posts to come, but I wanted to share this particular thing with you today.
The unbeatable Joel Carroll has been an online buddy for years, but we finally got to meet for the first time at Heroes Con this past weekend.
He was good enough to do this brilliant sketch of the Doctor for me.
As you might guess, I absolutely love it.

Okay, let’s do some thangs!
1) We’ve done an interview for a blog about pop culture that we’ve agreed is probably the best interview we’ve done so far. You should all read it, because honestly, you need more of us talking about pee holes and Hawkman in your life. The interview is broken into two parts: One & Two
2) Check out this amazing painting Sheli Hay did as part of an online art project she’s doing.
Amazing, right?
It features the first appearance of The Enthusiast and Mr. Fahrenheit Jr. in their Surf Mission Uniforms.
3) And finally, don’t forget, the LBFA 2nd Annual Original Art Sale is still in full swing! If you’d like to buy the original art of any of the strips (or any of the other miscellaneous art you may have seen on the site) e-mail me at thechrishaley@gmail.com and I’ll let you know if it’s been sold already or not and how much it will cost.
Chris and I helped our pal Shane George do a Who’s Who entry over at Comics Alliance so go check it out and leave a comment or tell somebody about it!
Because of that, our Friday strip will be a little late, either late Friday or on Saturday.
Also, Chris Haley is always selling original art from our strips, along with comissions and whatever the hell else you want to give him money for! E-mail him at thechrishaley@gmail.com for more info.
Apologies if you visited the site early Saturday and got a big old warning regarding malware. We was hacked!
I’m almost done cleaning up, but, as you can probably tell, things still look a little janky around here. Bear with us.
And I sincerely apologize if your computer was adversely affected by ~viruses~. We want you to stop reading Let’s Be Friends Again because you hate us, not because your shit’s broke.
From a note wrapped around a brick, found among the remains of Curt’s prized menagerie of glass animals:
Dear Chris,
How many Zima and pineal fluid benders can one man go on in the course of a week? And where’s he getting Zima is this day and age, anyway? And how am I supposed get any work done when he’s hovering, all ragged breathing and blurry eyes, looking like he’s going to savage my drafting brush again?
I admit it. You’re the bigger, or at least the more co-dependent, man. I’m releasing Curt back into your custody.
scarred and wearily yours,
Joel
