Well, here’s something different.

Writing and drawing this was the most fun I’ve had working on the comic in a long time. I’d been leaving some cryptic messages about a new format on Twitter, but I wasn’t really sure what form it would take until I sat down and got to work.

It also meant the most time spent working on a single comic in a long time. This took almost as long to create as a whole week’s worth of strips.

Which is why the schedule might be changing around here. As much as I love writing with constraints, I feel like I’ve pushed the [mostly] three panel strips as far as I can right now. I wish I could do three comics this size each week, but that’s just not realistic at the moment. I think I can do two though, so that means no Wednesday strip this week (and probably next week). I’m not sure if that is going to be a permanent change, or just some time to play around, but I’ll keep you updated.

By the way, here is the Pekar/Brabner interview.
And the “Finally” is blatantly stolen from Dave Kellett, but you know that because you all read Sheldon already, right?
