Ok folks, as the above image states, there’s a new Member’s Section strip up today, finally.
That said, I have a question for you. One of the things I’m working on during this hiatus (because believe me – AFBlues doesn’t stop) is the next book, which should be released early this year.
But I need your help. Yes, yours.
One of the biggest sections of this book, other than the 50+ never before seen strips and glimpses at my various other comic projects (Mike & Josh and The Adventures of Sam Cash), is a section about the main characters of AFBlues. Kind of a bio thing, if you will. But I want to know what YOU want to know. So post here what questions you’d like answered about each character. Stuff like “Who inspired them,” “Who would play them in a movie if I got to choose,” “Why do they look this way…” You get the idea. The most frequently asked questions, as well as the ones I find most interesting, will make it into print. Others just may be answered here.
Also, if there’s anything you want to see in the book, throw it out here.
Thanks in advance, and I hope you’re all doing very well!

How about some old drawings you scribbled out when you were a little kid
… as far as a question… What did Ken Dahl get his college degree in?
Should I count myself lucky that I’ve never met a fighter pilot?
As a crew chief that HAS to deal with them, yes.
Which character would be which, if the AFBlues and JP characters were swapped?
I’d like to see my career field CONTRACTING in the book.
Will we see this book as a digital download option in lulu?
It’s not being published through Lulu – this is a legit publisher. But I’ll explore digital options with them.
No, no! any digital option is fine. You’re the control tower, I’m just asking for clarification on the targets. hu-ah.
Do it as an interview versus a bio. Hit the highlights name/rank/DOB (first appearance)/hometown and then do five or six questions that are specific for each person. For example, Ken should answer about how women and fighter jets are similar and Lana should answer what’s the best shot a guy has at getting her digits.
Few questions from me:
Do the characters have long term goals or aims? (Or to put it another way, any of them want the next generation shuttle replacement?)
Aside from Top Gun, what military/aviation film or moment do they rate?
Who is to blame? And yes, I do have a vested interest in this one being someone that gets blamed for scrubbed sorties a lot
id like to see dealingw with ken and his dad whilst growing up as an air force brat and the trouble he most likly got hif father in to maby dealings with SF

sorry comp messed up didnt think it went
How was Leia inspired to join the Air Force?
Her father was Kidnapped forever ago in the AF, she sets out on a quest to find him
I definitely want to know more about Bert. He seems like a decent guy.
What I would like to see isn’t so much as content as it is on organization. I’m guessing that the book will have some of your older stuff in it, so my suggestion is this: instead of organizing the book chronologically based on when the strip was originally “published” here on the site, I would say have one section of the book strictly for the storyline strips, in order, and another section of the book for the non-story related strips with similar themed ones grouped together (IE all the Star Wars ones together and such). As for the Bios, I wouldn’t mind knowing what it was that made Ken want to be a pilot instead of a wrench turner like his dad.
Is this hiatus about SOPA lol
I’m surprised no one suggested but here goes.
What size bra does Leia wear?
In addition to the above:
- hometown
- any college credits / major / degree / school? (some NCO’s I’ve known had more advanced degrees than I did)..
- hobbies
- married / kids?
- Downrange tours?
- “greatest accomplishment”
- “personality quirk”?
You get the drift…color in their lives a little…
Thanks for asking!
What is the difference bewteen Barbie and his jet’s engine?
The answer will be posted in the members section.
boxers or briefs?
Innie or outie? You pick the body area!!!!
I wanna know about the crazy uncle (as yet unseen) that broke the family mold and joined the ARMY (God forbid)!!
Hey Farva. How’s about some strips about aircraft maintainers? That would make for some awesome interaction with Barbie.
I’ve suggested this before, and I think it would be a hilarious storyline, would have Barbie forced into a tour as an ALO assigned to a straight leg infantry battalion and having a Romad NCO who happens to be related to Coffman
Who would play the main characters in movies if you could pick?
How about a section on why he dislikes the AWACS so much.
do you think that Barbie will ever be put in a postion where he has to fly AWACS in his future endeavors.
