Wednesday Morning Mailbag

For some reason (perhaps it’s because I’m posting cartoons again on a (shock! horror!) regular basis again, the page views and unique visitors count for DorkTower.com are going through the roof. Which also means I’m getting a ton of e-mail from readers. Some of whom seem to be…erm…very new to the strip. Or at least […]

NEVER pick up a Duck in a Dungeon…

Back from London. And I’ve really got far too much work to be doing this morning to be posting to LJ… But… DUCK OF DOOM DISCOVERED!

Thinking on Stinking

Friday’s Daily Reporter ‘toon: **** And a nice e-mail with a cautionary tale: Comments: I love the current strip series. I’ve encountered far too many gamers that had only passing familiarity with personal hygiene, if even that. I had a friend, a fellow gamer, that I had invited to play in a game that I […]

Today's the Fourth of July…

Today’s the Fourth of July Another June has gone by And when they light up our town I just think What a waste of gun powder and sky – Aimee Mann This being the Fourth of July, let’s talk British snack foods.

Mixed feelings, but I’m finally finishing Munchkin Impossible, which, for some reason, took far longer than I ever thought it […]

England 2 – Sweden 2

What a miserable English defense in the last minutes of the game. The last goal was meaningless. At least as far as World Cup standings went. And I guess I’d prefer to see England take on Ecuador than Germany next round. But still…bleah! Oh, well. On to cool stuff OTHER people are doing… **** From […]

Speaking of…

Dork Tower #34 and Dr. Blink #3 are IN DA HOUSE! They should be in some stores next Wednesday, most stores the Wednesday after that, and all stores the week after. Bug your Friendly Local Games and/or Comics stores to get ’em in now, if you should so feel like it. It’d be much appreciated, […]

Oil and Water and Wipeouts

Today’s cartoon went up late on Dorktower.com. Sorry about that. I’m trying to get to the point where the Monday/Wednesday/Friday ‘toons are up first thing in the morning. Fingers crossed. **** Many people asked if posters made from Monday’s cartoon are available. Well, they aren’t, for several very good legal reasons, but you could probably […]
