Another “bankruptcy” cartoon

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

This cartoon ran in today’s NYT Op-Ed section and, while not about the bankruptcy process, definitely ties into the bankruptcy theme.

Strip #7 – Debtor education

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

A reminder that we still are seeking STR.I.P. Financing so that we can continue to publish future strips of Bankruptcy Bill (and preferably with more frequency).  Please contact us to discuss sponsorship.  And thanks to everyone who has contributed and/or bought some merchandise.

Thanks!

-Bill & Struck

p.s.  Regarding copyright issues, our legal counsel, IP Aileen, says:  “Other bloggers/websites/publications:  You are more than welcome to post Strip #7 on your sites as long as you also include all of the text, links and images in this post, including this paragraph.  If you don’t, then we’ll find you and make you sit through a mandatory debtor eduction session presented in Pig Latin or some other non-Western language.”

Original bankruptcy lawyer cartoon?

Saturday, December 13th, 2008

Turns out there was at least one bankruptcy lawyer cartoon before Bankruptcy Bill.  Can’t tell what year it was published, but given the woman’s outfit, perhaps the 1970s?  Just a guess, as fashion is not our field of expertise here.

Still seeking sponsors/advertisers

Friday, December 12th, 2008

mockforfoodReminder that we’re still seeking sponsors/advertisers.  With a little STR.I.P. Financing, we could be putting cartoon strips out several times a week.

Who would make a good sponsor?  Anyone interested in reaching the community of bankruptcy professionals (one of the few populations that still has buying power).  Or anyone in the bankruptcy community who would like to support continued growth of this cartoon.

For those of you fortunate enough to be subscribers to Bankruptcy Court Decisions Weekly News & Comment, take a look at the November 25, 2008 issue for a nice article on Bankruptcy Bill written by Kate Colangelo that’s running on page 6.  (No, not that page 6.)

And for those of you who are not subscribers, hang tight as we’re seeing if we can get permission to post the article on this site at some point in the near future.
