I love shameless self-promotion. I only wish I had a movie/book/website to insert here.

I like living!!!

BRILLIANT!!

I don't believe it.

Product placement: always entertaining. And what color was Rodney's uniform? That is pertinent.

Hmm...Rik said a naughty.

This one is my new fav after "how to confound your alien captor" and the moby dick book review.

What, no one patted Rodney down for the amulet?

¡Olé!

Brilliant! You know what DC did in this case? They left a cliff-hanger and let people vote if they wanted Jason Todd to live or die.

This one is really brilliant! Very nice! Thanks Scott.

Pheww! That was close. I wasn't even sure how the storyline would work without Rodney.

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterEinstein

Pure fricking genius.

In a can.

Of win.

Alas, poor Rodney! I knew him, Horatio.

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterdvtaylor

Absolutely love it.

I bet the slaughter-bot was cool looking. Why did Rocket Hat have to destroy it? The details are unimportant!

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJames Yeamans

So are the people in the strip aware of the head Moon Man's resemblance to Ric? Also, since I don't recall Rodney ever being a character before, can I assume he doesn't get no respect at all?

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterHari

WELSHYYYYYY!!!!!

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered Commenterp

I'm NOT dead yet!

I read the first panel 4 times before going on, just to heighten the suspense. This is, by far, your best work.

And I love that all of the comments are anonymous on my screen right now.

Nice use of Gaussian blur

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJD

I am reminded of
"NOT LENNY!"

January 7, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterEric

is that mullet boss hugging someone in the bottom middle on the left? Why is he blurry? I knew he was gay.

*giggle* nothing like trying to promote your own book by saving an unknown mechanic's life.
