2014 Sneak Peek

We are just starting the Shrimp-A-Palooza storyline, so that will be going on for the next few months.  After that though, things are going to get weird.  Here is a quick peak of what’s on tap for the coming year.

  • Once the music festival wraps up, Shrimpy is going to find out the true cost of being overworked and finally hire some help.  We’ll get to see that process as well as a bunch of new characters.
  • No sooner does Shrimpy hire helpers to lighten his load than he, Sluggy, Wormy and Fred take a trip to Atlantic City for a restaurateur’s convention.  There they take in the sights and all that Atlantic City has to offer.
  • On their way home, the guys meander around New Jersey, taking in the creepiest of creepy sites and we get to learn a bit more about Fred.
  • We finish out the year with the Body Modification storyline where Sluggy tries to maximize his new, busty figure while Shrimpy gets an ill-placed, ill-advised tattoo.
  • A couple Eat @ Shrimpy’s art books, containing the colored covers for the series as well as other goodies.  Look for the announcement for the first art book soon.
  • In a few months we will be starting up the second annual Eat @ Shrimpy's Bracket!  More details on that coming as we get closer to March. 
  • There are a few non-shrimp things in the works as well.  Longtime collaborator (and brother) Nik and I are working on a couple things that I can’t go into too much detail about just yet, and I am currently in the design and draw process of a tabletop card game, featuring over 150 individual illustrations.  Look for the card game hopefully by next holiday season and the collaboration between Nik and I will hopefully be coming by the middle of the year.  I will release previews of each of those as they become available.
  • Don’t forget that Broken Hand Wine Design is still fully operational and ready to serve, so if you want a one of a kind gift just drop me a line.

As you can see, it’s going to be a busy year for Shrimpy and the gang.  If you have any suggestions of things you want to see, especially regarding the Tuesday articles, feel free to let me know in the comments section.  If you want copies of any of the strips published over the last year for your own personal collection, contact me and I can get that out to you.  I hope you all have a great new year and thank you very much for the time you take out of your day to stop by and see what the guys are up to.
