I was watching the Season 3 DVD today, and the highlight of the History documentary for me was seeing scans of some of the original, childhood Sam and Max drawings - The 'Surprise Poster', the original version of Bad Day On The Moon, and so on.

Have any of these been published or released anywhere? I'm willing to pay money for childhood scribbles, here.

Me too, now that I'd think about it. I'd love to see the ORIGINAL original Sam & Max comics.

That'd be interesting to see... Are they at all published in 'Surfin' the Highway,' or is that all just official work?

Ha, I just found the ones that were shown on the DVD on the Telltale site (for those who haven't seen them yet):

What I particularly appreciate about this one is how in this one crude, off-model drawing, you can see their personalities are pretty much worked out. Max is talking about how much he enjoys violence! Sam is saying something slightly clunky and needlessly wordy in support of violence! IT'S THERE. (Although I am foxed by what Max is wearing in the 'original' comic. I'm not imagining that that's a dress?)

And I'm linking these so I don't enormous up the thread any more - Here's a page from the original Bad Day On The Moon, (http://www.telltalegames.com/images/summer/history1/summer_oldbadday.jpg) and here's a 1980s college newspaper strip (http://www.telltalegames.com/images/summer/history1/summer_collegestrip.jpg).

So yeah. I want more.

Aaaah, I see it now. ...You have to admit it's hard to tell. (Especially since, if I've learned anything from classic cartoons, it's that cartoon rabbits are great at crossdressing.)

I always thought it was a potato sack.

If nothing else, this discussion does explain why Max decided to give up wearing clothes.
