Titans, Cats & Dogs, and Tree Trimming

kybearfuzzI got home yesterday and found my copy of "The New Teen Titans: Games" graphic novel had arrived from Amazon. SQUEEEE! I've been waiting for a LONG time for this to be released. Anything George Perez draws is wonderful in my book, but this story is set back when Donna Troy had recently became the armored, short-haired version of Troia. It's a fantastic costume (though many don't like it) that didn't last long in the series. So I'm glad to see her in action in it again. I'm only 2/3rd's of the way through. I'm trying to savor it.
One of the other books I bought recently is called "Why Dogs are Better Than Cats." While I don't totally agree that dogs are better, the author Bradley Trevor Greive makes a great argument. The book is a picture book with great sayings like, "Dogs are social. Cats are sociopaths," and "Dogs match up to people. People must match up to cats." While he may be a dog person, he does give some positive qualities about our feline friends, including their hunting skills and keeping vermin away.
One of the things that caught my eye was that the Aussie author is HOT! (work safe). Bearded, burly and furry, he apparently was the rock lifting champion in a village in French Polynesia. I didn't get the chance to do a FYFF pic after my workout yesterday, so I'm offering his shirtless pic as a substitute. He seems to have a great sense of humor and, while he isn't family, he still is very good eye candy!
After my workout and my shower, I settled in to work on the comic, coloring the cover and preparing to do some lettering when I heard a chainsaw running. My neighbor was saying he was going to have to trim a tree earlier this week, so I assumed it was him. Then there was a knock at my door. It was the tree removal service I'd called two weeks ago to remove a dead pine and they were halfway done. With the recent rain, I'd not set up a time to have it done, but I was happy to see it go. And this handsome devil (right) was climbing the tree again, though I didn't get an updated pic of him.
Busy but happy Thursday. Now if I can get through Friday, the weekend will be here.
