Hi C-Brat friends,
No Captain Jim this week. In fact, it may be a while before we see one again. Here's the note I received from Dan...
---------------------
Hi Jim,
I wanted to let you know that the Captain Jim comic strips will be created on a slower basis for a little bit. A gentleman from a comic book studio contacted me a while ago about possibly drawing for him, and I have decided to pursue some of his work since I feel that I am ready to move to the next level. Therefore, I will have to put some of my other projects to the side while I do this. It doesn't mean that I am stopping the comic because I still believe in its future, I just would like to start making money. As I get an opportunity to draw a Captain Jim here and there, I will get them to you. I apologize to my faithful readers who look forward to reading the comic strip each Monday as well as you and Joan. I have enjoyed doing the strip and it has helped me get to this level. Anyway, I will update you on my progress with the studio as I move along with my drawings and hopefully gain a contract with it. ...
----------------------
Dan is a hard-working guy and deserves all the best. Besides teaching and coaching (his baseball team had a perfect season this year), he has been doing weekly comics for us and the school and various graphic arts projects. I hope you will join Joan and me in wishing him all the best. He has appreciated all the nice comments and encouragement here.
Of course, I have a vested interest in him doing well... I'm expecting he and Steph to take care of Joan and me in our old age.
Best wishes,
Jim B.

While I have certainly enjoyed the "Captain Jim" strip every week, I understand the necessity of doing something that pays once in a while. From the content of the comic strip it is obvious that you weren't paying him Jim.  I'll look forward to seeing the strip's occassional return. Tell Dan "many thanks" and "best wishes".
