Dork Tower 33

by John Kovalic

The Passion of the Ken
With two days to go before Mud-Con '06, the Dorks are in a crisis. Well, several, actually. So whose is worse? Matt's comic book crunch, Igor's management mayhem or Ken's crisis of identity? And what's in that little jewelry box he's giving Sujata? And Dr. Blink and Lethargic Lad are back, as per the doctor's orders!
Plus, Dork Storm Press is pleased to announce that beginning with issue #33, Dork Tower will contain a bonus eight-page supplement for the Kobolds Ate My Baby: Super Deluxx Edition roleplaying game! This issue: The Slayers Guide to Chickens!
Dork Tower is for anybody who's ever played Dungeons and Dragons, who's ever gone to a Star Trek convention, anyone who suspects that anime is growing, or anyone who KNOWS one of these people. But it's really for people who know what saving rolls you need to make against a level III Demon, which Classic Trek episodes involved the Prime Directive (and who were the directors), and the names of six minor characters and a dog in the Bubblegum Crisis.
Dork Tower: Now with added Kobold!

About the author

John Kovalic’s cartoons have appeared everywhere from his hometown WISCONSIN STATE JOURNAL (Madison, WI) to the NEW YORK TIMES and DRAGON MAGAZINE. His creations include the sell-out comic book sensation DORK TOWER and “DR. BLINK: SUPERHERO SHRINK,” as well as SNAPDRAGONS, NEWBIES, WILD LIFE, BEACHED, and panel cartoons including MURPHY’S RULES, THE UNSPEAKABLE OAF and others.

A co-founder and co-owner of Out of the Box Games, and a cartoonist for Steve Jackson Games, John has illustrated over 100 games and game supplements, and is at least in part responsible for best-sellers like APPLES TO APPLES (A GAMES Magazine Hall of Fame inductee) , MUNCHKIN, CHEZ GEEK and BLINK. He is closing in on 4,000 MUNCHKIN cards drawn, and boy, are his arms tired.

He was the first cartoonist inducted into the Game Manufacturers Association (GAMA) Hall of Fame. In his spare time, John searches for spare time.

You can also read about how he got his wife into the National Enquirer.

The lovely and talented JUDITH, BTW, is world-famous now that she works at Michael Feldman’s Whad’Ya Know.
