F.U.3 part 1 and 2 make their official debut in Fairmont at 2 a.m. Halloween night (which I think is technically Nov. 1).

When will you see them, you ask? I thought about releasing them this week, but I'm afraid they'll get lost in the shuffle of Halloween submissions. The problem with that is the influx of potential election cartoons that there will be immediately after that. (By the way, I'm not doing the long rumored The Polls are Closed. I'll talk about that in a minute.) I think I can maybe squeeze it in on Nov. 2 or 3 if not then it'll be the next weekend. I'll send out a mass email when it's released.

Polls was a nice idea, but it references the obscure The Polls are Open too much. The premise was the the U.S was in ruins and the F.U. gang was living in rubble, because Bin Laden was elected president. Mike comes across a genie lamp and is asked for one wish. His wish is that Bush had won the election instead of Bin Laden. The world starts to transform, when it's finished nothing is any different.

"Did I not get my wish?" Mike asks.

"You did," the Genie replies. "It's pretty much the same outcome."
