Achewood / "We've returned to 5 strips/week!"

« on: August 20, 2003, 10:45:11 am »

Yowza.

So onstad is now going to do 5 strips a week, PLUS serializer, PLUS ray's place, PLUS whatever it is he does for the variety hour. there went all of the theories that this was an attempt for him to be more "regular" in strip output by replacing some strips w/ text-only material.

frankly, i'm betting that chris has been having a really good week, you know, the kind where you feel like you can do INSANE work and get shit done. so he's setting high goals for himself. ah well. i give it 2 weeks.

in the meantime, i am intrigued by the forthcoming tuesday "diary" strips.

Achewood / Five Favorite Strips - The Results are IN!

« on: August 07, 2003, 06:55:09 am »

long time reader of the old forum, i now register to take part in this lovely exercise.

5. Antiques Roadshow
4. What is the saddest thing?
3. Ass in your #####.
2. French Fry
1. DO YOU WANT SOME FRITATTA a.k.a. Porno

i completely disagree with the sentiment that the fritatta alt-text is better than the cartoon. this was the strip that really sold me on how genius achewood could be: that a strip could completely devolve into a character ripping off his head and screaming a total non-sequitor, and that i would completely buy it, is i think the ultimate testament to how good onstad can be.

i also need to give an honorable mention to this strip, because the phrase "so many whales" actually became integrated into the speech of my friends and I as a synonym for "a lot."

yup.
