[sidenote] Calvin and Hobbes is the best.  Pessi, I'm sure, agrees. [/sidenote]

I'll definitly be entering this one. Great topic.

Yo loominus, i think its kind of unfair making the compitition open to hi-res and lo-res backrounds. What makes a great LO-RES backround is differant from what makes a great HI-RES backround. Its your call, i just think it makes it a wee bit to0 open ended. I LOVE the theme though...Go Tracer Bullet! ;D

Oh yeah! If you haven't read Calvin and Hobbes, you haven't really read a newspaper comic.

It's a San Francisco type alley.  For those of you unfamiliar with the city, there's an extreme hill at the far end of the street, hence it looks like it leads to open sky.
Not really where I would like it, but it'll do  for the deadline.

Anyone else planning on entering?

Aren't BG Blitzs usually two weeks? I think people tend to enter more in the second week, though I may be mistaken......

[less subtle hint] extend the deadline [/less subtle hint]

Of course I love Calvin and Hobbes. Tracer Bullet there was put in there from a book. I didn't trace it, but the pose isn't mine. And fans of the series may well know whose eyes are peering back at Tracer from the alleyway.

I am sorry I didn't get to spend more time on this blitz. I had other entries I had sketched up, even this from a different view. I also know that sprites, such as Calvin here don't belong in background blitzes... well, then it's part of a cutscene.
