Been really busy.

Here are my latest:

[willmj]

are you going to these as a book because I love them!

[Gunwhale]

hey will. you know, i'm thinking about taking a graphic design elective class next semester that's a directed study project, so i can turn this into a book. either way, i've been wanting to for a long time, but i've been waiting till I at least get to 100.

i'm glad you like em.

Hey everyone, I've just updated my blog with two new strips.

Check it out.

These are consistently funny, and that's not easy to do! A lot of clever punchlines. I really loved the "He always steals my ideas" one.

I'm glad you stopped with the final panel of just text. I think it distracted from the enjoyment of the punchlines.

You totally should collect these.

Keep 'em up. I can see this garnering a following!

Seth, thanks for the nice comments.

You really think the (sometimes) final panel in German takes away from the strip? To be honest, I do it because I wanted to do something different from most strips, and also to echo the German in the strip's title. The translation usually explains or adds to the punchline, but I don't do one if I don't have anything good. I can see how it can be distracting though.

I was planning on ending the strip when I graduate next year, and then collecting them, but my teacher keeps bugging me to do it now.

I actually liked the German at the end. I couldn't say why.

As for collecting them, I can't offer advice one way or the other, but I would definitely buy a copy, myself.

Mr.Average-Wow dude, thanks. I'll definitely start designing a book. Just don't know if I'll publish it now, or wait till I graduate.

In the meantime, however, there are two new strips on my blog:

Strong as always!

About the German thing... if you think it adds to the uniqueness, leave it in. I found it a bit distracting, but not a big deal.

You definitely need to collect these!

[andrewwales]

Add my vote to those liking the German at the end. It does make it unique. I agree with Seth -- these are consistently funny. I think you should put them in book form. And, why stop making them after you graduate?

[andrewwales]

I also meant to comment on the strip where they are trying to make their car troubles go away by throwing money at the problem. That is so pointed and funny!

[Gunwhale]

Andrew: Thanks man. I appreciate it. Well, I'm thinking I'll stop it because by then I might have a lot on my plate, such as getting a job and working on other projects. Who knows though, maybe I'll just change up the format and updating.
Regardless, there are two new strips on my blog. Take a look:

Hahaha, these are still cracking me up. I like his expression at the end of the moths one.
