'My Cage' Comic's Contest Winners Include a Cake Baker

By Dave Astor

Published: March 07, 2008 11:15 AM ET

NEW YORK Three winners of the "My Cage" comic's fan-art and fan-essay contests have been announced.

"Oddly, all three entries ended up being from Texas," said Ed Power, who writes the 2007-launched King Features Syndicate strip. (Melissa DeJesus draws the manga-influenced comic.)

Chris Holm won the art contest -- the drawing can be seen [url=[link] photobucket. com/albums/o118/mycagecomic/?action=view¤t=MyCageArtContestWinner. jpg]Here[/url]-- and Eduardo Soliz won the essay competition.

Soliz wrote, in part, that he likes "My Cage" because "I see my reflection in Norm, I see the silliness of day-to-day office life, but more importantly, I see the relationships, friendships, and love that somehow keep a ship called 'a business' afloat. "

Norman Platypus is the lead character in "My Cage."

The third winner -- Stephanie Falleri -- entered the art contest by baking a cake picturing Norman and cupcakes showing the rest of the comic's young-adult-animal cast. "It was outstanding, but it wasn't a drawing, so we named her an honorary-mention winner," Power told E&;P.

The baked entry can be seen [url=[link] photobucket. com/albums/o118/mycagecomic/?action=view¤t=MyCageCakeWithExplanation. jpg]here[/url].

"All three winners," said Power, "will appear in the strip as the prize."

OF course, gorilla Poop + unsuspecting kids = greatness. Almost and unfair advantage in humor.

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens every day

Indeed!

I actually found out about them through a friend who was all into Swedish music (or European stuff for the most part). I then found out through DDR quickly enough and learned more about them through there.

very good, perhaps i should follow your example and make a drawing for them as well. It's funny because i didn't discover them thru DDR like everyone else. But thru a carnival toy my nephew had. The fan-art/support they see from the US awaiting their debut here should energize them for an exciting show.

God came down from the heavens, and He said to the chicken, "Thou shalt cross the road." And the Chicken crossed the road, and there was much rejoicing. ;D

Thankyou oh so very much for the watch :D. Your gallery, as I'm sure many others have said IS AWESOME. I appologise for my momentary outburst of awe-struckness... Is that even a word? Doesn't matter, well done.

No worries. I still like meeting people from the area, San Japan-related or not. I can set aside that struggle pretty easily. Life still goes on!

Sorry didn't mean to unleash any bad spirits. I just msg'ed everyone i could from the forum that had DA accounts just to get to know the community. If you don't go then that's cool. It would be ok if you would still like to talk. I could always use local anime friends to critique my anime attempts.

Hi there! I just read your comment on my page. I used to be staff with San Japan, but due to the most horrible of inner turmoil with the staff this past year I have since resigned my position as Historian. I'm not even sure I'll be attending. But, hey, we'll see what happens! Hope to hear from you soon, though!
