Money Funk goes Comic

Dream Come True!

I was thrilled to find out I was going to be written into the next PF Comic! I love comic books! So this is seriously a dream come true. I LOVE YOU Brad for writing in my character.

Fred from Credit Card Daily sent me the Sneak Preview via email. I was so giddy when I opened up my email!

Look at those bedroom eyes? Francis, the awesome illustrator of this comic … Thank you for making me look so dreamy!

See… way back in the day, Brad (Enemy of Debt) and J. Money (Budgets are Sexy) had this ‘friendly’ credit card debate on my post, 6 Financial Things I Wish I had Known When Starting Out in Life. It was a great debate. So Brad referred to the post when submitting his story line to Fred at Credit Card Daily. Awesome!

Check out Credit Card Rewards or Credit Card Regrets, Part One of this PF Comic. It also stars:

Don’t forget, Part Two of Credit Card Rewards or Credit Card Regrets PF Comic #5 will be:

  • On the 2nd of June where they will reveal what Enemy of Debt’s next move is to the J.Money’s zany gambling habits!
  • What has happened to Baker?
  • Will Money Funk be ok?

Serious Awesomeness! And J. Money, shame on you! That knock out with the skateboard had to seriously throw some pain on Enemy of Debt! ;)

Sam, I met Brian last month at the DC blogger happy hour. His new job is keeping him busy with long hours. I didn’t get a sense for when he’d be posting again.

Very glamorous. You may want to consider getting that tattoo if it doesn’t already exist!

How fun!!!

Christine, congrats on the comic strip. Make it part of your header..? ;)

Now a header… that’s a good idea. Let me GIMP it and see if it’ll work.

Whoa – spicy! :)

Congrats on becoming animated – is this your first celebrity appearance?

**Do you know – are these comics hand-drawn?

Reply

Yes, hand drawn by Francis. Too cool, huh? And it is my first celebrity appearance. It’s a very awesome first appearance! :D

Hey Christine!! How in the WORLD am I just now seeing this? I just got an email for a google alert with my name in it and your post popped up. why didn’t it ALERT me when you actually wrote it? LOL

Let me just say that it was my pleasure to include you in the script Christine. Fred has asked me to collaborate with him some more so expect to see some more of my favorite PF Bloggers in whatever Fred and I come up with. :) It was definitely FUN!!

I was so honored to be a part of it and I am just really glad that Fred allowed me to be. When he asked me to write something I seriously had no idea how to write a comic book script. It’s WAY different than writing a blog post about money. LOL It was definitely an experience, and I am just glad you are enjoying what we all came up with. Fred and Francis freakin rock!!
