Sometimes I experiment with things like “shading” and “reflections” and “nicer artwork” but often it comes out looking like poor Heidi’s hair in panel one. Sorry, site patron! Sorry it looks like your head was dipped in oil or something. [April 8th, 2013]
I just realized I really like the third panel in this. [January 22nd, 2013]
When I was a kid — scratch that, to this very day my older brothers delight in making me laugh when I get the hiccups around them. Because my laughter, interrupted by hiccups makes them laugh, which in turn makes me laugh more, and hiccup more, and it’s this crazy perpetual laughter situation. [January 22nd, 2013]
The answer of course is to be Canadian and use proxy servers to access American websites. Not that I would do that. Unscrupulous people do that. Not me. [January 22nd, 2013]
Sadly, I don’t think anyone noticed that the truck in panel 2 has a beard and is named “Norris”. Eh? Eh?? [January 14th, 2013]
The problem is that we’d watch like three or four episodes in a row and without fail I would doze through at least one of them. And honestly, not every episode is worth remembering anyway. [January 11th, 2013]
I’ve probably talked before about this occasional, odd impulse I have to just straight-up lie to my readers. I don’t know what it says about me.
BUT this comic was actually kind of encouraging to me because of the outcry it inspired. It also made me wonder how (when? if?) I’d actually end the comic, if it ever comes to that. [ January 11th, 2013]
I still do this regularly; visit the main page of my site, but try to step outside myself and pretend that I am a first-time visitor. What impression do the first few comics make to somebody who doesn’t know me?
Usually I’m satisfied, occasionally I am alarmed. I mean, I often like to paint myself as a bit of a jerk for hilarity purposes, but part of the reason that’s funny is because people know I’m not really like that.
Does the irony always come across if people don’t really know me at all? I’m not always sure. Still, it can be an illuminating exercise. [January 10th, 2013]
This comic really is too vague. Looking at it now, I have no idea what I would’ve been talking about when I wrote it, and it’s really not super-well written. Or funny. The only redeeming factor is the first panel. Blah. [ January 10, 2013]
Ordinarily the gun would have been taped to my back like in Die Hard, but since there is no surface area to speak of it has to be the back of the head. That’s why that thing is like that. [October 3, 2012]
