– Sorry this one is late. I’m still sick and it’s causing all kinds of problems. I keep thinking I’m better, only to later realize that I’m not better at all, I just had a fever and THOUGHT I was better. I’m trying hard to recover, but each day is awful in it’s own way. Today I’m coughing non-stop and sneezing up red and yellow snot clots. Anyway, this strip was colored by Red Marlin. We should have new strips all next week.
– My friend Jaymz Bernard has launched the Kickstarter for the first collection of her sci-fi comic Devil Spy. You may know Jaymz as a regular contributor to Combine, or from Willem or Split Screen. Devil Spy is pretty fantastic and I urge you to check it out.She’s about 1/4 of the way funded, with most of a month to go. If you like sci-fi comics or want to support comics by women, please check out this project! Here’s the link.
Now that, is a friend
Ouch, when the local game store knows you better than your best friend.

Perhaps it was her hair that did the actual stealing…
Bearded shop guy: (into phone) Yeah… yeah… it really looks like she’s telling the truth… okay… okay… thanks… ‘bye! *puts down phone* Well, head office has accepted that you’re not in direct control of the actions of your hair…
Modest: :-} Yay! *puts away sushi coupon with a sheep drawn on it*
Bearded shop guy: …but, we are entitled to prescribe and demand that you take any action of a reasonable nature in order to control your hair and preclude such happenstance in future. So… any ideas?
Freckled shop guy: *searches social media* Hey… there’s someone offering a solution right here, and it’s just across town!

“No, seriously, it was the snake girl who puked on the cash register.”
Yeah, that excuse is a little hard for the boss to believe.
I don’t remember these guys.
They appeared briefly in season 1, and were the focus of a 3 part story in the extra comics in the Season 2 book.
