He appears to be somewhat in his "Gothic Dance" getup.

Weird.  It does remind me though, that most of the daily-strip style web comic guys seem to be absent/skipping days right now because of comic-con.  James Kochalka was off for days too.

As was Jeph Jacques.  Interestingly, Jeffrey Rowland did not run guest strips, which may fuel his descent into madness.

It is lame for us readers. DS has guest strips, Overcompensating was off, Lore wasn't updating his blog, Dr. McNinja was out of town, no explanation for the lack of Ask a Ninja, no movement on Scribs, and Little Dee is in reruns to allow comics.com readers to catch up.

Onstad doesn't need any stinking comic con as an excuse to skip days.  Those guys are just pussies.

I really can't picture Ray calling his junk his "dingle", or using "LOL" as an actual exclamation, in real (well, Achewood-real) life.

or, you know, having a man perform oral sex on him.

...that is what is going on here, right?

Plus, omg, why is Ray wearing Versace sunglasses from like 6 seasons ago? Where are his standard vintage Vuitton shades?

Did the dude writing that strip forget what comic he was guesting for?

I think the joke is that when the comic creators go away (even though onstad didn't go away?) the characters perform oral sex acts on each other.

even though one of them is a *****.

even though when he says "are they gone yet?" the oral sex acts have started.

even though a batman tattoo on his "dingle" would not look like that at all-- it is, at best, in the general pubic area.

The completely unknown guest cartoonist is bitter at the relatively greater fame of the Penny Arcade authors and takes his frustration out on them by making their creation a fellatio whore.

Dude, PA is big business.  Those guys are loaded.

I think the point is that they're already huge whores.  It has nothing to do with the artist's frustration.

Even a first year student of economics knows that success isn't a zero-sum game. PA's success doesn't stop this unknown from achieving success. Thus stooping to ad hominem (or, should I say, ad cartoonem) attacks betrays a lack of understanding of the nature of success as well as substantial personal bitterness on the unknown's part.

Success is measured in more than dollars for one, and for two there's more to that than just hard work.  Even a first year econ student will tell you that Capitalism is bound to create people who "lose" as well as "win"; it has to just to survive by its nature.

I'm not saying that this childish "ribbing of" isn't anything more than that, but I'm not sure how much economic jealousy is really factoring into the mix.  That being said... PA still makes me laugh.
