it probably isn’t necessary to hurt yourself

OH HEY

Posted by monstergear on February 27, 2008

Seeing as how the 300th Comic Spectacular went really well, I’ve been thinking of setting up a similar thing for Fridays. I made a gmail address, and then you can send your questions into it, and then every Friday I will pick one and write a comic where I answer it. The idea is foolproof, no? Of course, if nobody’s interested or e-mails me, I’m off the hook.

Send all relevant queries to:

journalcomic at gmail dot com

(Not a link because, you know, spambots. And I don’t want to answer THEIR questions.)

New Feature FTW!

And, it’s not cannibalism! The other guy’s eyes just float home (going “pew pew pew” the whole time) and then he comes back, good as new!
