Let’s travel back to the year 2001, shall we?
A Young Brad McGinty and a slightly older Josh Latta were doing a comic that could have changed the world, but the strip was cut tragically too soon thanks to 9/11.
Even thought it was really 2002.
Brad and his ol’ pal me did a comic called “Brad N’ Josh”. It was an improvised jam strip (Is there any other kind?) with no planing what so ever, we’d just start in the first panel and move the way down the page. Brad would draw himself and write his own dialog and I would draw myself and write my dialog- or whatever struck my fancy at the moment.
“Brad N’ Josh” appeared monthly for a completely useless, ugly and crappy free tabloid called Insite. The owner of Insite hated “Brad N’ Josh” (as well as all comics and cartoons in general) The editor hated it, heck- most of our collective friends said they simply “Just didn’t get it.”
Despite the primitive art and wordiness, especially on my end, I’m still quite proud of these strips.
My only regret is that we didn’t get our terrorist strip out Pre 9/11. The laughter could have stopped the catastrophe from taking place.
You know what to do!
