If you count the squirrels, then all three sides are crazy. Don't want to leave anyone off the crazy list.

Camp Cook 1: "Up to now, I wondered why our cookbooks even had a penguin section."

My son really liked the beautiful crossed out and corrected to awful. I could have saved myself some word balloons up top if I'd known that was going to be the takeaway.

This is one page where the characters influenced the art. When I conceived it, I thought everyone would run away from the flying swords. Then, when I thought about it, Prince Mo and the Chief Ninja aren't the type of guys to run away from anything. So the final drawing has them acting accordingly.

Remember at the beginning of this story, how I said my son asked for lizard, ninjas, and swords that move all by themselves? Finally got to that last one!

On a totally unrelated note, they landed on the comet! The Philae lander touched down on it today. Granted, this has nothing whatsoever to do with the Lunch Notes, but it was so groundbreaking I felt I couldn't let it go unremarked. Can't wait to see what it finds out!

Coming Soon!
The original Lunch Note Project might be long finished, but now I have another kid in school! And, while he may not have needed to be entertained at lunch, he DID have a sister who got a whole lot of notes, so he wanted some too.
When I asked him what he wanted the story to be about, he said, 'Lizards! And Ninjas! And swords that move by themselves!" So the title wasn't too difficult to come up with.
A few disclaimers:
Despite having ninjas in it, I did little (translate: none) in the way of research into Japanese armor, weapons, etc. Not that I didn't want to, it's just that if I took the time to do so it would have ended up as the College Notes Project. And besides, this is the Land of the Lizards, and not Japan, so I guess they could have any kind of armor, since it's not in the least historical.
The same goes for lizards. Other than looking up geckos, and a Gila Monster, these are not based on actual lizards. Although if there were sword-wielding lizards, I would have looked them up in a heartbeat, especially if it were on YouTube.
