This week’s strip is due completely to the kind intervention of Chris Butcher, who pointed out (rightly) that it was probably a bad idea to take a week off my strip while in the middle of trying to build my audience with a goofy promotion. I couldn’t think of anything to make a strip ABOUT though, and was in the middle of trying to get ready for Jim Rugg and Chris Pitzer to stay in my house. So I wrote Chris into things, and in the absence of an actual story idea it was easier to just make him lose his temper.
Really Chris, just calm down, come on now. I didn’t really do him justice, although I feel like the last panel actually looks like him, which was frustrating–since that was the last one I drew of course. What can you do?
And here I thought that Canadians were a noble and gentle people. At least I understand where it comes from in my family now.
Dude your lettering and panel layout is immaculate it stands out every time I read a strip recently.
I like your little manga influence.
Good one. The "* translated from Canadian" part almost made me shoot coffee out my nose.
