I love overcompensating, but it does sound like j-ro's going slowly insane. I blame all the Art Bell that he listens to. That shit'll rot yer mind.

See I've been more into him since he stopped wigu and went overcompensating full time. I read plenty of storyline comics so I dig random non-sequitors now and then.

Yes!  See, anyone could write a story if they really had to.  There are principles, and structure.  It might be a lame story, but you could do it.  But those random flashes of insanity... those are precious.  You can't make them happen.

Noooo! Overcompensating is brilliant.  Dinosaur comics has too many words.

I feel less fanboyish after reading the news section today on DC:

Quote from: Ryan North
Achewood was really great yesterday! I love that comic and that episode in particular. Usually when there's a really great comic I'll email the creator to say "Hey, I really liked your comic today! Thank you for making it exceptionally awesome!" because I use a lot of exclamation marks because they're free. But I didn't email Onstad, thinking, man the dude probably has enough emails already, and PERHAPS IN RESPONSE TO THIS, last night I had a dream where he called me.

We chatted about things and I told him over the phone that I liked his comic and he said he liked mine too, and it was REALLY WEIRD because I've never dreamed about a cartoonist before, and I honestly don't normally have dreams where people I respect tell me I'm pretty okay. My subconscious is not that transparent; my dreams are customarily the standard dreams of men of my age and position: wild, unattainable dreams of courting a lady of breeding without incident and of settling sensibly in the Hamptonshire.

anyway embarrassing personal details aside i really liked yesterday's achewood is what i'm trying to say here dudes and ladies

As much resepect as I have for Ryan North I don't think comapring favourably with him really is that great a water mark for fanboyish nerdishness. Bascally all the dumbrella gang are huge dorks and are not ashamed to show it, if there is a bell curve for geeking out then they are the tiny wedge at the far end.
Not that we'd have them any other way.
