Nothing special, but with today's strip, I couldn't resist.

It brings a tear to my eye.

Have you posted it over on the Sluggy boards yet?

Psycho Smiley · Post by **Psycho Smiley** » 2004-11-21 07:26pm

Yep. Everyone was posting the tribute art in the reactions thread, so it's there too.

Nine months or so. And blast it all, the website isn't loading.

No surprise. We're near the end of the biggest story-arc yet, in length, content, and individual comic size. It kicked off May 19th and has been running almost constantly since.

Oh, and according to many, Ian's "Meanwhile in the Dimension of..." Saturday strips have been going steadily downhill, but you can't just skip them because they have become part of the continuity.

*Down*hill? If he goes any further down he'll pop out the other side of the planet.

Sorry, I was being diplomatic. I forgot where I was. It's shit. Especially the last one.

I dunno, I kind of liked the one with Hell freezing over when the Sox won the series.

I personally don't mind the MITDOP. It doesn't hit the mark as often as main Sluggy, but for the most time it's a good laugh. Just no more "balls" *shudder*

Though even the balls saga had the brilliant "we still got it!"

MITDOP lost all quality after the two storylines merged, then diverged again.

I'm just about through May in the archive. Personally I prefer the Dimension of Pain in Pete Abrams' style. With the other guy it's just lame.

So I take it this new storyline started here? Another alternate-dimension story?

Psycho Smiley · Post by **Psycho Smiley** » 2004-11-22 06:20am

That's the one. Just wait. It gets complicated.

Thats a great desktop. I think I'll use it for a few days. Thanks!

MITDO* is getting terrible lately. Its like Ian just dosn't understand the characters at all. The hell freezing over was funny, but if the sox wouldn't of won the series, then I dont think the saturday strips would of made me laugh in about six months.

I would rather have the title with Mosp, actually, because she was consumed. Torg chose not to be.

Flakin · Post by **Flakin** » 2004-11-22 09:47am

Yeah, not to take this off-topic... but todays strip just rocked... Torg's face in panel 4 as he overcame his anger....

Almost a Luke Skywalker moment.....

I might make a new avatar out of alt-bun.....
