Wow! So here we are. 400 Boogieland comic strips. 400 fun adventures w/my BWC Family in comic strip form! It is a great accomplishment that I am very proud of & thankful for. Believe it or not, over 50 real life Boogieland Family members have taken part in the fun & received the comic strip treatment during the course of this strip so far & I thank each & every one of you from the bottom of my heart! I couldn't have done it w/out you! We did it people! The most recent real life characters, appearing in this very strip, are Shady & Kayden Pheonix. Shady, who is a popular DJ in addition to holding many wrestling titles, expressed interest in joining the fun when I met him at a Boogie appearance/private party in Altavista, VA. You'll have to ask him about the tongs reference yourself. Kayden is a former BWF Heavyweight Champion who I have had the privilege of making many great wrestling road trips w/but he still scares me a little, er, a lot! Thanks guys for being a part of the first 400! A big thank you to Mike Mars for contributing the beautiful piece of artwork you see above to commemorate this cool milestone. I love how he made it a 'bust' to reflect the name of the strip. Nice touch Mike! Keep up the awesome work! I'm expecting to see you on the shelves of comic shops everywhere & in the rings of the top wrestling companies in the world any time now! A very special thank you to my mom Faye for reading every Boogieland strip from day one & frequently leaving comments. Not to mention everything else you have done for me in my life! Thanks Mom! I love you! & a deeply heartfelt thank you to everyone who has ever read a Boogieland strip, left a comment, liked a post or helped out in any way. It is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much to my Boogieland street people & the entire BWC Family. & of course, I have to personally thank Boogie & Angel for believing in me & allowing me to do this comic in the first place. I appreciate all that you've done to get the word out about our comic strip adventures & beyond that, I thank you for all the real life adventures we've shared & especially for your love & friendship! I love you Boogie & Angel! Be back this Thursday, Oct. 2nd, when we begin a new storyline & start on the next 400 strips! There will be lots more fun & adventure along the way & hopefully a lot more real life BWC characters along for the ride! Don't miss it! See you in Boogieland! I highly recommend a visit to the real Boogieland in person this Sunday or any Sunday, from 12 noon to 4pm. Admission is free! Click HERE for more info. Thanks for reading! Take care!

Thanks Dale! I think it's wonderful that we've both been able to consistently maintain our long running online comics. It's amazing how quickly the years fly by! Yes, Boogie always seems to have a great attitude to fit any occasion & that's just one of the things I love about him! Thanks for the comment Dale! I'll be over on your site each Wed. to keep up w/Watusi's great adventures! http://watusithetalkingdog.wordpress.com/
