One final remastered and expanded Shakespearean bingo card today. I’ve saved my favorite genre for last: history!
I haven’t worked it all out, but I suspect this is the easiest card to get “bingo” on, given the preponderance of Henries, Edwards, Richards, Yorks, Lancasters, and Gloucesters.
Here’s the original:
Many MANY thanks to my pocket dramaturg, Kate Pitt, for collaborating with me on these. Two heads are often better than one, especially when one of them is Kate’s.
I’m taking May off! Because I really need to. There may or may not be some fun filler content, depending on <gestures vaguely> circumstances. Either way, I’ll see you back here in June for some more Shakespeare fun!
Let’s continue with more remastered and expanded Shakespearean bingo cards! Up today is tragedy.
The free square used to be “very poor life decision” but that proved harder and less satisfying to draw than a big ol’ pile of bodies.
Here’s the original:

Just over six years ago I drew a series of bingo cards for each of Shakespeare’s major genres. They weren’t perfect; for starters, they were a 4x4 grid instead of the standards 5x5 grid. So, to celebrate Shakespeare’s birth month, I decided not only to give them the old “remastering” treatment, but also to team up with my pocket dramaturg, Kate Pitt, to add nine extra squares per card. Print them out and bring them to the next Shakespeare play you see!
Here’s the original:
I keep picking things to “remaster” with the idea that they will be quicker and easier to do than original comics, to give me some time to work on other projects. I keep being proven wrong.

The final installment of my remastered Shakespearean Selfies! It’s been super fun to revisit and update these. I’ll have to do some more soon…
And here’s the original:
If you’ve enjoyed this, make sure you check out Shakespearean Selfies, part 6, which didn’t really need to be remastered.
MOAR REMASTERED SELFIESSSSSSS
And let’s take the Wayback Machine back to the original:
Wasn’t going to be able to improve on the bear, so basically just copied it.
Yes, it’s MORE remastered Shakespearean selfies!
Check out the original here and marvel at my primitive pen-and-ink attempts to draw “insubstantial”.
Pretty pleased with my action-blur on Casca, tbh.
Let’s continue on the great Shakespearean Selfie remastering project…
Have to admit I found drawing a six-pack on stick-figure Antonio to be HILARIOUS.
Time to once again revisit and renovate some old classics! Let’s polish up some Shakespearean Selfies!
And here’s the original, from waaaaaaay back in 2013, just a few months after I started Good Tickle Brain.
You’ll note that back then I hadn’t yet settled on the “triangle and circle” stick figure aesthetic I prefer again, and actually wasted lots of time drawing CLOTHES and stuff. I’ve learned a lot since then.
