Tales From the District – Back From the Dead
September 26, 2008 by Cale
Did you know BYT used to have our very own comic strip? Well after a little hiatus, editor Lord Jason and illustratator Evan Keeling are back to bring you some more. What they need is for you to send in your weird, interesting, funny, harrowing, and heartwarming stories about living in this gem of a town, which they will then turn into juxtaposed pictorial and other images in deliberate sequence, intended to convey information and/or to produce an aesthetic response in the viewer.*
*You know, like Family Circus
So, if you have a story that you’d like to see, please email them to Jason and Evan at: talesfromthedistrict@gmail.com
In the meantime, here are our favorite ones from the past:






And some that aren’t our favorites!
