Yeah! Nice work, GH. The more people who see your work, the better the planet will be.
Are you going to assemble something for The Poohing as well?

I'd like to but I have my doubts about it. Is it worth putting out there? I have a real problem judging how these things will be received. I have one more little strip idea from the Shining but haven't really felt the inspiration to complete it. This viral attention is fun but it wont last much longer and could turn ugly in the end. |

Hey Giant Hamburger, FANTASTIC job with Alien VS Pooh. Your ending makes me anxious for the sequel "Alien VS Predator VS Pooh". hehe
As for The Poohing, I think you should keep working on that one. Love the "taste" so far. I think you need a frame with Pooh standing in front of the elevators pouring blood saying in his "ever so calm"/"can never be phased" voice.... OH BOTHA! Are you on twitter? LMK Love to follow you PEACE Fluffy |

Hail, GH! I noticed that I have yet to tell you how much I enjoy Pooh vs. Alien. I keep coming back to read it and have shared your wonderful work with others. May your meatiness continue to reign supreme.

What Ho Troublebot!
My heart sings to see you back at this place even but for a moment. People now want to by the original art to AvP. Does anyone have any advice on how to price such a thing? Any and all advice is welcome! |

So I came across AvP on Facebook today, and lo and behold, the creator is GH. I was like... GH... I'd know his deliciousness anywhere. So, after a great length of time away from TFP, Giant Hamburger and his fine storytelling has brought me back into the fold by proxy of social networking.

funny you should mention that exact scenario in your last line, Overlord GHBurger:
I think I know who taught her those moves. and another to note: I have not or still won't seek (sought?) learn the intricacies to Twitter, but for a full solid month of however long it was, I did manage to find both your universal web home, as well as your creepy adoration of clowns, in their splendid color and beady eyes and all.

Hail GH!
Please take the time to further explore The Poohing! I think, if pressed, I would say that I enjoy The Poohing more than Alien v Pooh. By the way... AvPooh made it to Boing Boing as well.

I too like The Poohing a little better.
I plan to do more. I saw the BoingBoing comments and those guys are a tough audience. My kung fu did not impress them that much. Does anyone know anything about thrillist.com? They want to interview me! I am still in negotiations for selling some of the pieces. I am being pressed for prices. Any suggestions? |

wow, that is amazing. Congratulations GH.
What size are the drawings originally and how long did you take to make each one? I would say if they are small they should fetch about 100 each at least. That would be about $120. If you have more people fighting over it you can probably go up in price. Good luck!

I don't know about pricing but you might also consider making prints and selling those instead of the originals (i.e. volume sales over individual sales). How wouldn't want a greeting card with Tigger in a hydrolic exoskeleton?
It would then raise questions about copyright and all that... Pay no attention to the techno hipsters commenting on this at Boing Boing... like any criticism on the Internet, it must be taken with a large grain of salt.
