the matt yokom takeover: part 4

NOTICE: while i take a brief sabbatical from c&b and other aspects of internet life, my good friend and artist matt yokom is taking over cow & buffalo! i’ll be back sometime in november. -mike

Well, with Mike still on vacation and taking a break from his hectic life of daily blogging and drawing, I will take this time to make lists, a thing Mike does every once in a while on this site. I’ve known Mike for a long time and I still can’t figure out if his love for list making is a hobby or an action that will soon manifest itself into an extreme case of obsessive compulsive disorder. But by reading Cow & Buffalo all these years (and especially the Death Peach Saga) I think I already know the answer! So here’s my list in honor of Mike:

Music:

  1. Plankeye
  2. David Crowder Band
  3. Skillet
  4. The O.C. Supertones
  5. Tie: Wallace & Gromit Curse of the Were-Rabbit Score (Julian Nott) & Edward Scissorhands Score (Danny Elfman)

Movies:

  1. Wallace & Gromit Curse of the Were-Rabbit
  2. Sword in the Stone
  3. Braveheart
  4. The Dark Knight
  5. Kung Foo Panda

Books:

  1. The Bible
  2. “The Art of” any animated movie
  3. Pilgrim’s Progress
  4. Parable 1 (coming this December)!!
  5. The Art of LOTR by Alan Lee & John Howe

Mike Moments:

  1. Watching the same Spider-man Silly String Web Shooters commercial from our separate rooms and hearing each other yell, “Awesommmmme!” at the exact same time.
  2. Actually going to Toy’s R’ Us that day to buy them and permanently silly string up the dorm room halls in a ‘no-hold-barred’ duel to the silly-string death. Mike won.
  3. Mike teaching me how to play racquetball (never played before) and me winning 90% of the time.
  4. Hanging out with his family whenever they come to Cleveland.
  5. Driving for donuts and Slurpees at two in the morning listening to Steve Miller Band.

See ya next week! -Matt!

    Even Andrew was wearing a chicken on his head, which is strange…
    I think I know what’s going to happen, at a certain time all the chickens will turn evil and bite their brains out, that’s where the zombies come in!
    Anyway, cool comic!

    I forgot to ask, you should put a penguin named Karpolo in to one of your comics.

    YES! You have officially done a great job! You’ve drawn Andrew into your saga! I may be partial, but hey, such is life. :) Oh, and I LOVE Alisha, simply because she loves Andrew! :)

    Now, we need to talk about your list… Braveheart is not number 1. Sigh, this needs to change. ;) Mike and I have talked about this. I mean, it has something for everyone: it is a love story x 2, action movie, saga, tragedy, military prowless, history, a little comedy, great one liners, great inspirational speeches…. the list goes on and on! ;) Think about it. :)

    Karpolo – i had no idea of your love for penguins, maybe next time i get a shot at c&b, a penguin may find its way onto the farm :)

    Andrew – yes, yes, the giraffe made an appearance (sigh)…but thats it! haha. less giraffes and more goats! i do love braveheart, it did have everything….but mel gibson is on the annoying list with tom cruise. And thinking more about it, i think i may replace Kung Foo Panda with The 3 Amigos…
