Lost Unintentional Adventures of Danders: Reconstructed, Part II, With Bonus Material

Thanks to Beth Broadwater and Daniele Seiss of the Washington Post Magazine, I lined up some old issues featuring Danders' final unintentional adventure and scanned 'em. So once more, here ya go-

But wait- there's more-
The issue of May 20, 2007 featured a cover piece by my old friend Joel Achenbach on the 2008 election. And guess who illustrated it? No, not Steve Brodner ( he was busy). Here's a clue-


Hey, not bad! It's not Brodner but it's not bad. That McCain on the stump is the best of him I've drawn (the one on the cover is mostly gouache slathered on thick, a good sign he gave me fits). But what happened to Obama's eyeballs?

Wait ... do I have to leave an actual comment? I was just being pointlessly argumentative ...

Mr. Thompson - I actually cut a deal for the ancillary rights with Danders shortly after this originally ran. Your cut (a coupon good for $1.00 off
a 50 lb bag of Sam's Club Hamster Kibble) is on the way.

P.S. Your presence in the Post is missed every day, Sir.
