This week’s fantastically funny fan art is by none other than Tom Dell’Aringa, of the hilarious webcomic “Marooned!” I think my favorite thing about fan art Friday is seeing how other cartoonists whose work I enjoy regularly translate Legend of Bill into their own awesome style, and this is no exception. I love it!! Thanks Tom, for the fantastic and hilarious artwork, and everyone, if you haven’ yet, click on over to Tom’s site to catch up on Marooned!! I promise you will not be disappointed!!

LINKS: A quick note that the links that were on the left column are now in their own links section above the strip. If you have an 88×31 button you’d like me to replace your text link with, shoot it over to me (hit contact) and Thomas the Innkeeper and LOB webmaster will happily get it in there. You’ll also note the font change above the strip for the links - a necessary thing to get all those darn links to fit! And I’ll be adding a store soon, so yeah, gotta make room!!

GUEST STRIPS:  Last night I finished two guest strips: One for my good buddy Paul Taylor’s Wapsi Square, which will run Friday the 15th (and on that same day Paul Taylor’s Princess Gina Fan Art will run here!), and I also finished a guest strip for my good buddy and fellow Tall Tale Features alumni Mike Witmer’s Pinkerton, which will run soon as well!! So, be sure to visit their awesome pages regularly to keep an eye out fot them!!

STAR TREK VEGAS CON:Â I’ll be heading out to the mega Star Trek convention by Creation Entertainment in Las Vegas as a guest and cohort with the Roddenberry family’s booth, and be gone all next week, however, all strips and blog posts will continue as always, but if you don’t see replies from me, you’ll know why! But I’ll be checking in regularly on my phone’s Internet connection (and will post notes if possible, or at least twitters) so I’ll be lookin’ for ya’, my friends! And if any of you happen to be going, please look me up at the Roddenberry booth! (Which is promised to be the largest booth at the whole con from what they tell me - BOOYAH!)

FAN ART: I’ll be starting the return of some of my own guest art for my wonderful friends who continue to send me guest art for LOB, so keep your eyes out, friends - they’re coming your way eventually!! Alex Robinson, (first guest art) you are LONG overdue, my friend!!

An awesome fan Gregory Orosz, from Hungary, has asked me if he can translate Legend of Bill into Hungarian! Naturally, I said yes, and thank him very much for taking his time to do this, and it is with great pride that I present the first 3 Legend of Bill strips in Hungarian for our new readers in Hungary (and more to follow!). Thank you, Gregory!! In addition to posting Spanish translations every week by our good friend Julian Gonzalex in Spain, I will now post Greg’s Hungarian translations as well. Legend of Bill is International! ;-) Now, we just need French, German, Japanese…

I’m off to Las Vegas for the week as of today - for the big Star Trek con (I’ll be a guest with the Roddenberry booth if you happen to be there, so stop by!!) - blog updates daily and all comics a runnin’on time - so, stay tuned, friends of Bill! And I’ll be checkin’ daily, and Twittering randomly all week! Keep your eye out for some Trek doodles popping into the blog!

Viva Las Vegas!
