When I got my wisdom teeth out, infinity war had just come out and all the characters that turned to dust were on jello boxes. My best friend came over and was feeding me jello. I asked which flavor it wad and she told me it was Groot. This made me sob and I got dry socket. I wasn’t even loopy off meds, the delirium of pain made me an empath. Anyway, is Spider-Woman showing up in any of these marvel upcoming’s you got? Feel better soon!
It's a shame you won't make the Captain America screening. I probably won't go now, though I am very tempted by this "special treat" of yours. It's your teeth, isn't it? You are sending a small Ziploc bag filled to the brim with the teeth ripped from your head to the screening in your stead? Classic Chip, you curious fellow, hoping some poor sap will mistake it for popcorn and get a mouth full of teeth that don't belong there. Just to be safe, I'll keep my corn ON the cob, thank you very much. One final request... please make Red Skull Italian Again🤌🇮🇹
Aw dang! Get well soon (even if it's not soon enough for Dumpster Raccoon Cinema)!! Hopefully you have the Captain America BluRay to enjoy during recovery!
At least Heated Rivalry is on Crave, so you have a distraction. Though perhaps your schedule doesn't allow distractions.
Aw thanks! I'm glad that you're taking care of yourself - getting somehow even sicker would not be fun!
TBH kinda giddy to spend time with friends in a polar vortex. In Vancouver, that means -15 hahaha yikes. It's been a few decades since I've experienced REAL winter!
When I had my wisdom teeth out 20 years ago (oh god I’m old) they touched a nerve with the needle they were using to inject the novocaine and electrocuted my mouth somehow (because science! Oh god Ryan North is going to write an issue of Fantastic Four about this). I had no control of my face on one side and was drooling uncontrollably for weeks. And let me tell you, dribbling a line of saliva down your own chin is VERY DEFINITIVELY SEXY.
Sorry to hear about the recovery front 😭. Was looking forward to seeing you Saturday at Captain America and introducing you to my girlfriend (she won the TCAF silent auction for the complete Sex Criminals compendium)... also to ask you face to face: DUDE, YOU GOT TO EDIT MAD????
I'm so mad (pun not intended) I didn't think of this collaboration first. The talent you've assembled is maddening (...again, pun not intended), and I need to know how you resurrected this sexy publication for today's audience, that it makes me want to buy a new(!) Mad for the first time in over a decade!!! This is so cool!!!
Between the extreme temperature drop that's expected this weekend, and your recovery, it's for the best. Regenerate and conserve your energy for when Anthony taps you to appear for an eventual Howard the Duck dumpster raccoon screening
May your jaw and wisdom teeth heal stat and may your cold scram quickly. May there be no nerve damage either.
My dental doozy: had all four wisdom teeth pulled at once (they weren’t impacted - not showing off I swear!), as I was at a dental school clinic, the lead (real, thank god!) dentist held one of my extracted wise teeth aloft and exclaimed to the resident student dentists “Look at that cone shaped root!” And they had more teeth to extract (the rest weren’t as special). 🙄
MAD sounds fun (Yay! You are writing & drawing something for it too?)
I like your homage covers, appropriately inappropriate smiles! 😄
Captain America #6 was superb, loved Steve’s speech in the bar. The art is wonderful. Delio, Frank, & Romulo are a great art team for the series. They compliment Valerio & Frank wonderfully.
May you get well soon Chip. Thanks for the great reads from your bed and beyond.
When I came too after having my wisdom teeth removed, I looked at my wrist to see how long I was out. My watch wasn't there, so naturally I started to loudly accuse the dentist of stealing my watch.
My dad then told me to look in my pocket, and sure enough, my trusty timex watch was there. The dentist offered to help me walk out of the office, but I refused, determined to try and keep some dignity. I stumbled my way out slowly, my head held up high (or at a groggy angle that I thought was upright).
Never sign anything “Chip” again, just be Beddytime Numbjaw. It’s the superior name. Can’t wait to get your MAD cover, and your writing on those preview pages for Cap are INCREDIBLE! For someone who lives in the south but is not republican, that’s very prescient. Can’t wait to pick it up! Hope you recover soon!
Dude. Jaw and tooth pain is THE WORST! I once had such excruciating tooth pain that I had to bite on an ice cube to numb my tooth enough to make it through the night (because I couldn’t make it to a dentist until the next day) - I kept nodding off only to awaken from the EXCRUCIATING PAIN in my tooth once the ice cube melted 😫 only to then repeat the experience over and over all night… here’s to hoping you feel better soon - and that the feeling comes back in your jaw. As sexy as it might be to have a numb mouth, feeling things with your mouth is sexy, too.
There's a scene near the end of Annie Hall that makes a convincing case that numb jaws are not sexy, so maybe you want to get sensation back after all. I hope that you feel better soon, and that you won't use this as yet another thin excuse for blowing your deadlines.
Looking forward to MAD. Be hard to top Superduperman, or Bat Boy and Rubin (though I see Alfred E. Newman has his own secret gas), but if you promise no Ryan Stegman, I'll give it a try.
MAD news is insane. Can't wait to read it.
Get well soon. And don't worry, I'm sure you're medical condition is as sexy as whatever your normal sexy level is.
oh no that's TOO SEXY

GROOT INDUCED DRY SOCKET is a phrase I never thought I'd utter, so thank you for that!
I can't spoil anything re: Spider-people!!!!
Thought I’d try anyway. It’s very responsible of you to not break any rules.

and I LOVE CAPTAIN AMERICAN #6!!
oh man! get well soon!!
thank you!! I will!! you take care too as well!!🥲

As someone with all the wisdom and all the teeth I can't relate.
On another topic, any chance maybe substack subscribers have a little drugged-out post-surgery Zdarsky snippet as an exclusive or something?
P.S. I support the Heated Rivalry suggestion from Kathleen (With a great soundtrack from Québec artists)
Aw dang! Get well soon (even if it's not soon enough for Dumpster Raccoon Cinema)!! Hopefully you have the Captain America BluRay to enjoy during recovery!

Hi Chip
May your jaw and wisdom teeth heal stat and may your cold scram quickly. May there be no nerve damage either.

Wait, your special treat isn't going to be a Brandon Cronenberg Antiviral-inspired "treat" right?

Oof! That sounds ROUGH. Right now the pain is very manageable thank god, but the combo with the cold has been zero fun

Ooh. That's a lot of Toronto for MAD magazine!
