Happy Halloween! I received over 1200 entries to this year’s Halloween contest, and they were an impressive collection of crazy ideas. Some of the common themes: Occupy Wall Street, parking, iPhones, concerts, The Walking Dead, and windshield-cleaning. As you can imagine, it was pretty difficult to choose the winners!
And the winners are…
The Grand Prize (a zombified edition of my book, a mug, and a set of buttons):
“Do your worst. It’s a rental.” – by Chuck
The Runner-up Prizes (a signed copy of my book):
“Hey, can you direct us to the Mensa Conference…?” – by Elissa
“So I take a right at “brains” and then a left at “brains” and I should be there?” – by Joe
Congratulations to the winners! I’ll be in touch to get your address information. And thanks to everybody who participated! This was the best contest yet – lots of amazing creativity out there!

It’s my annual Halloween Contest! Complete this cartoon and you could win the Grand Prize:
- a one-of-a-kind zombified edition of Savage Chickens: A Survival Kit for Life in the Coop. I’ve drawn 100 zombies in this signed copy!

I’ll also be giving away prizes to two runner-ups, who will both win a signed copy of my book.

Well, I received over a thousand entries for the Halloween Contest this year and they were better than ever. Popular recurring themes included: dead end jobs, Hansel and Gretel, kids meals made from kids, Harry Potter, loads of newt eyes, MacBeth, and plenty of chicken burger cannibalism! It was very difficult to choose winners, but here they are…
