What has happened here? Maybe… A: Sylvester is (as usual) trying to catch Tweety but discovered that Pepé has made himself comfortable in the backyard and is trying to trick him into lowering his guard by pretending to be a lady skunk. B: There is no trickery, maybe Sylvester is genuinely interested in a romantic relationship with Pepé? C: Maybe it started as A and then turned into B?

(Personally I`m leaning towards scenario C.)

Sylvester the cat was created by Friz Freleng, designed by Hawley Pratt and later by Dick Ung. Tweety was created by Bob Clampett, designed by Rod Scribner and later by Friz Freleng. Pepé Le Pew was created by Chuck Jones and Michael Maltese and designed by Bob Givens and later Robert Gribbroek.

All of them are owned by Warner Bros. This is just silly fanart

And as usual: here`s the line art

Marjorie Liu became the first woman to ever win the Best Writer Eisner Award at 2018's ceremony, held Friday night at San Diego Comic-Con. Liu created Monstress, a fantasy tale about race, class, slavery, and giant tentacle monsters, with Sana Takeda on art. The book took home five total Eisners at the ceremony: Best Writer, Best Painter/Multimedia Artist, Best Cover Artist, Best Continuing Series, and Best Publication for Teens (13-17).

The other big winner of the night was Emil Ferris, writer and artist on My Favorite Thing Is Monsters. The staggering debut comic from Fantagraphics gave Ferris three Eisners - Best New Graphic Album, Best Writer/Artist, and Best Coloring.

Sharing the Best Writer award with Liu was Tom King, writer of Batman, Mister Miracle, and Batman/Elmer Fudd Special, a sentence no one in their right mind expected to say on stage at an award show. Mister Miracle also gave penciler/inker Mitch Gerads his first.

The sole controversy of the night was the failure of Den of Geek to secure a write-in win for Best Comics Publication. The winner of that category, The Comics Journal, successfully blocked our grassroots campaign for victory by pointing out that there is no option to write in nominees who are not on the ballot. The Establishment can stand in our way for only so long, though, so expect a landslide victory for Den of Geek next year as a reward for successfully choosing at least two of this year's winners.

Congratulations to all of the honorees! For a complete list of Eisner winners, keep scrolling. For more from the CONTINUALLY JOBBED geniuses at Den of Geek, stick with...shit. Uh...keep reading, true believers!

Ashe Co. NC Genealogies and Histories #northcarolinapioneers

Ashe County Genealogy Resources: Wills and Estates 1801 to 1903

Ashe County was created 18 November 1799 from Wilkes County. The area that became Ashe County was part of Anson County, Rowan County, Surry County, and Wilkes County. Both Alleghany and Watauga Counties were formed out of Ashe County. The county seat is Jefferson, North Carolina. The Ashe County Courthouse in Jefferson was destroyed by fire in 1865, however, the surviving records are contained here. The Will Books reflect inconsistent years, suggesting that there are gaps due to the loss of records in the fire. Indexes to Probate Records
