The Real Question [Comic]

Government contracting in the DC area is sort of like startup lifeblood.  There's a lot of work to be had and many a small company have grown fairly well by jumping into that pool.  But if you're a creative type, government contracting can be some of the most soul sucking, thankless work imaginable.  Even if you're working for a place that sounds amazing like NASA.  So many people are involved in the decision making that you'll sometimes have meetings to schedule other meetings.  It's as if the work is set up specifically to rob you of any creative spark you may have burning passionately within.

But it pays the bills.

That's not to say you can't survive doing your own thing.  But that steady work is mighty attractive when clients aren't ringing your phone.

SUPER ART FIGHT IDOL TOMORROW!!!!!

Have you ever seen us on stage or clips of our show and thought to yourself, “Well if these fucking idiots can do this shit, so can I.”  Well, you’re right.  Anyone can do this shit.  But if you want to be on stage with us, we’ve got a process.  This Saturday,eight art fight hopefuls compete in the Super Art Fight Idol tournament for the chance to join our roster in 2014.  This group of hopefuls is the most talented and most prepared we’ve ever seen.  They even held a practice session this past weekend with our very own Charmcity Shinobi, Dann Malihom.

How do we determine the winners of an Art Fight Idol?  We do it reality style, with three judges.  Mikey “Baron Von Sexiful” Bracco, Nick “Ghostfreehood” DiFabbio, and myself will be doing our best Simon Cowell impressions yelling terribly unhelpful things at these wide eyed art fight newbies.  We will ultimately decide whose art reigns supreme.

But the best part is that this show is free to the public!  We’re going from noon to 6pm at the Metro Gallery in Baltimore.  We’re also raising money for the Make A Wish Foundation.  Members of our current roster will be on hand selling original pieces and other assorted merchandise all to benefit Make A Wish.

So if you’re free this weekend, come on down for an exciting show and see some new blood battle it out for a chance to take us old ass art fighters in 2014!
