Sometimes it’s hard to work with just three guys standing around.  But I did google image each sect, so I could at least draw the guys appropriately.  A lot of people are afraid to touch this issue.  That makes me wanna work on it more.  Here’s the rough.

I have purposely avoided Christmas themes this year.  I’ve done two sortas, one with the nativity scene and one with Bush sticking his tongue on a flag pole (ala, Christmas Story).  But I’m trying to avoid anyone sitting on Santa’s lap.  I’ve done that enough in the past and enough cartoonists are carrying the weight with that analogy this year.  I’m not saying I definetely won’t do one, but I’m trying to avoid it.  There will be a Xmas toon on Xmas day, but hopefully that’ll be it.  I don’t have today’s idea yet, so watch it be a Xmas theme I can’t avoid.
