Security! Security! Grab that girl!


[Image: Colorful picture of a girl in a wheelchair being pushed through airport security with other passengers waiting in line behind all staring at the girl being pushed.  Security officer asks, "Can she walk through the body scanner". ]

Ok, so I've been on a short hiatus, well one month, sorry about that.  It's been a crazy adventure and I was able to travel from Texas to Atlanta to present SuperCripComic at the Critical Juncture Conference at Emory University.  It was awesome getting to share my comic with new people, and meet some readers.

If you can't tell, I was inspired by my trip in this Issue of SuperCrip.  Airports are certainly not the friendliest or most accessible places for people with disability, with some airports better than others *cough* (Atlanta)

It is not the question the security officer asks, but rather who he asks the question too.  Some people who use wheelchairs maybe able to take a few steps "through the scanner", but they can also most likely find appreciation of being addresses like a normal person.  This erasure of individual happens in conjunction of being the "spectacle" in the line, that no one can take there eyes off.

Dun nun nun nun nah . . .

This weeks blog is a tribute to my favorite cartoon when I was a wee one.  It's easy to see why a little crip-kid would love this show.  Although the Inspector was clumsy and limited by his physical attributes, he had any tool to immediately help him in any given situation.  I still want that jacket.

Looking For the Holiday Spirit



Hope everyone is enjoying the month.  In attempts to stop being scrooge like, I create this weeks comic in memory of x-mas shopping with my mum.  I'm sure she misses my help being the cart. Now she has to carry everything herself.  <3 you mummy!

SC: Graffiti Ninja #2

Before. . . 


After . . .

SC's at it again...

As "Crips" we get asked all sorts of silly questions.  This weeks post is in response to: "Were you born in a wheelchair?"

SC: Graffiti Ninja

Hello Everybody, 
This weeks comic isn't really a comic but a piece of graffiti SC created on the side of a pretty tall building in Dallas.  This maybe a "tallTale" but in my own opinion, it would be pretty cool if true.  

This is definitely a more serious tone than I usually present, but sometimes seriousness is called for.   Although I am not an artist who likes to explain my work, (mostly because it's just sillyness) I would like to say one thing.  Graffiti= rebellion against status quot.

Moo's New Outfit

Hello All!
Just thought I should mention that no animals or people were harmed in the making of this months comic.  Although we were not able to take our AFP yet, it will happen. And when it does, it's gonna be spectacular...

Thanks for reading!

Megabus Megabust

So yes, I do realize that the date is august but the comic says "July Issue", but due to personal life it has taken some time to get it all finished.  Plus, deciding to do the partial color also takes more time than one would think.  I also would like to mention that Megabus does have accessible buses, you just have to call them up and let them know when your wanting to travel.  So I've been told.

SC Tips for Running Errands


Also, look what I found:

I wrote this definition a long time ago.  Although I appreciate it's frankness, this is still a working definition; as  all definitions are.
