"Thank you for the dinner and a very pleasant evening. Have your car take me to the airport. Mr Corleone is a man who insists on hearing bad news at once."

Why aren't you on this list? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_...

That's kind of a sad entry that shows how sad comics are. You don't see an entry on TV shows or rock bands that accomplished the thrilling act of being able to turn a profit with their work, do you?

In any case, Girly was never really a self-sufficient comic since I make most of my living from Slipshine.

Skippy is a neat replacement for Yumi, but I wonder if you'll make one for Lucy?

Kinda weird, I never thought of her as that but I guess she sort of is. Even if pink hair is all they have in common.

I was thinking of introducing another goth girl character to my Slipshine comix, if that counts, though her personality won't be like Lucy's at all.

Will you ever put Lucy's Sexy Adventure back on Slipshine?

noooo it's too embarrassing :(

Well, here's that Gainax show that took GIR out of the whorehouse he was working in and gave him a new job!  It's nice seeing him get some work, but I gotta say it's a bit on the simple side for my tastes, what with the fart and shit jokes, but the ending is pretty ridiculous, and Gainax produces some of the only Japanese animation I can stand without wishing I was the drinking type, so I'm looking forward to more.

As for GIR, I don't talk to him much, not since that episode of Intervention where I was called in to help talk him out of his heroin and whoring, but that was pretty much a bust.  "I DON'T HAVE A FUCKING PROBLEM" was pretty much all he screamed during the whole thing and just anyone mentioning him gets that running through my head like an unwelcome reverse mantra.  Stresses me out, man.

I'm not gonna lie, I get a kick out of the stories I hear about him disillusioning fans who don't know just how much time has passed since he starred in that ZIM show, the kids running up and asking him some silly thing, making sure to pepper it with quotes or words they think will make them more relatable to this beloved character of theirs only to get vomited on and, berated and then assaulted, sometimes sexually, by a dried up, ghoulish shade of a one-time cartoon darling.  That's just funny.

He seems a little underused in those new show, but I guess that's about as good as they can hope for with what's left of his mind after all the heroin.  Hopping around and making little grunting noises is a far cry from his former glory days, but what're ya gonna do, ya know?  At least it'll make the kids happy.

Next, I'll draw them together and try to do a little better job at it

Who would you say was your biggest fan? Like a fanboy that really stood out at a convention or something. Stood out in a bad way good way either/or.

Uhhh I don't know? It'd be kinda rude of me to mention his/her name to everyone if I did. :|
