NEVER TRUST A SPARTY


Congratulations to the one and only Brian Cook, who proves he knows a thing or two about Ann Arbor by winning the first ever Blockhams Caption Challenge, which just happened to focus on an identifiable piece of the A2 landscape. For his victory Brian has earned an all expense-paid trip to Saturday's Northwestern game, complete with tickets, tailgate and media accessibility courtesy of MGoBlog.

The First Ever "BLOCKHAMS CAPTION CHALLENGE!"


A few weeks ago, I created an image for a strip, without fully knowing what the tagline would be. Surprisingly enough, this happens quite often-- I can see the strip in my head and know just how I want it laid out, but I struggle with the last frame or punchline and plug it in last. Sounds like a recipe for failure but some of the most well-received strips here at The Blockhams were created this way.

Anyway, after considering several ways to go with this strip, I ended up running it past MISOPOGON just for kicks, and he threw his two cents into it.  And then I got an idea-- how about a good ol' fashioned caption contest featuring some of my (and your) favorite members of the Michigan Football media? I sent out the call to a short list of candidates, and to my delight most agreed! I then worked up their responses into the original artwork and the results are what you see below.

My apologies for missing my first ever regularly scheduled entry in ten months on Tuesday... but I reserve the right to not draw during a national disaster, haha. Speaking of which, I hope everyone is safe, sound and lost nothing of great value during this whole Hurricane Sandy business.

So... ONTO THE STRIPS!!  Featured below are each of the entries from some of the most talented writers covering Michigan Football-- Please feel free to click on the link below each of their respective strips to visit each writer's own fantastic site online. And before you're finished, don't forget to vote for your favorite treatment of the strip-- the winner will receive a Free Imaginary Trip to Mrs. Katzenmoyer's Office with Charlie Blockham!!! (My own strip is listed as well, but is not available for vote.)

Without further ado, I present to you... "THE CUBE."


























WHO WROTE THE BEST VERSION OF "THE CUBE?"
