By my counting, I have passed 434 real comics (excluding holidays, one-shots and a poorly disguised filler. I have updated (post-updated) this comic every MWF without exception. There are days where I dread making the new comic. There are days when I have three ideas ready to go all at once. Yet it never gets old. After nearly three years, the hardest part? Writing the strip. I have to tell a story, advance the plot and tell a joke - all in four panels. There is nothing in my life that take more time and and more concentration.
Oh, and the word balloons are a major pain in the butt.
Can't forget that.
