Raddish

I'm really effing proud of this one. Sorry not to be utterly self-deprecating this go around, but I am.

Ben appears for the THIRD time here, which makes him a bigger character than either Cthulu or Powerbook. Hey, where are those guys these days, anyway? I think I'm trying more these days to keep the strip slightly more grounded in reality. Do you guys want 'em back?

Fiona made a good point on the last real update, which was that I don't portray "myself" nearly as fat or schlublike. I kind of think it's conveyed a little more clearly here.

Did you see yesterday's miniupdate? It's there! And it's...a comic!

See you Friday!

Variation

I think a small amount of strips with fantasy characters could be amusing. That is to say that it could be good, but it shouldn't necessarily overtake reality.

HEY! *I'm* one of those seniors with a shitty Goatee!

Get the hell off of my comic.
