“This is actually the first script I submitted to them,” says Matt Sharp of this story, “so I’m grinning like a loon to see it in print. The first script I wrote – ‘The First Day’, with art by David Broughton ran in Dogbreath 30 but that was something like the fifth one I sent in, but was the first one to go to an artist… It was beaten into print by ‘Comic Rock: Silver Song’ (also by David Broughton) in Zarjaz 23″.
