I bet you didn't expect to see me again.

I tell you, I forgot what a frustrating experience trying to upload these comics is, and it's not helped at all by the fact that in the year since I last posted a comic technology has marched off a cliff.  Something (I can't determine what exactly so I'll just blame Vista) has turned Alec's once-perfect back-end into a saggy, misshapen disaster (such, alas, is the fate of all our back-ends.)  I spent almost as much time fighting with all these new tools as I did drawing the episode.

I think some of you may not like this one.  Don't let it get you down, though.  Just think about it like this: the smelly libertine inside you has been there all along.

 Also: some new art, if you're interested.

  2. Welcome back!
    Thanks for the comic...I found it a while ago, and it was like somebody said, "Here, kid, try this crack," and I did, and they kept giving it to me, but then they went away...probably to prison...but now they're back, and they called at 2:00 am and I was like "WHAT!?" and they were all "Soooooo...you want some rock?" and I said "yeah" because it's good and I missed my crack....er, comic.

  5. finish the comic with "and then he woke up and it was all a dream and he wasn't a robot after all". You're already halfway there!!

  13. We'll, we are all still here. Don't plan on going anywhere, anytime. Ever.


    I'd hate to think what I'd miss in this solar system if there were no RSS feeds.

  20. Super!
    Thanks for the update. We don't mind waiting - the results are so good.
    (Although I will admit to being piqued as to where this particular plot thread is leading....)

  21. I had to come back to read this again and make sure I had not hallucinated this. It is good indeed to see an update on one of my favorite comics.

  26. I can't say I didn't assume something along these lines was coming , but I didn't expect them to warrant a single strip. Hopefully there shall be more.
