Oh, that was classic.

[TripperDay]

i agree with wombat.

but, oh well, all good things must come to an end.

-snip-

regardless of the bodily damage you may well incur from your optimism,
the primary difference between Chris Onstadt begging for money and a panhandler who may either be on hard times or be on hard drugs is that the panhandler doesn't have a website full of years worth of content for you to freely peruse.

or, if the panhandler does, maybe he should get off the street and stop spreading TB.

That's true. I thought the rumors of Achewood's death had been exaggerated, but even the store is missing most of its content. I didn't try to put every item in my cart, but I clicked on a lot of them and all I found was a pack of stickers.

On another note, I noticed you were in NW TN. I was born in Trenton. Small web, I guess.

Anyone got a copy of one of the cookbooks for sale? I hate that I never got one of those.

[jay-ell]

I am cool with him not doing Achewood any more. I just wish he would decide to stop and move on to something else, instead of pretending he's going to keep it up just as soon as [personal life event x] is over.

[robot_god]

Hell yeah.  We're collectively pissed off.  That's cool.  Let's draw straws and the winner gets to pull a Lennon/Selena.  Teach this mfer a lesson.

"if i cant read new achewood strips then NO one can!"

[jay-ell]

That's...pretty accurate, actually.

On account of there's none to read.

I nominate Fanta to go postal and start shooting. He's the most likely candidate anyway, especially now that Bobby's gone.

[AugustWest]

Yeah.  If he's done, he's done.  That's fine.  If he never does another thing he should be remembered as one of the finest humorists of the decade.

But it's time to man up and either shit or get off the pot.

As long as he reveals which (or how many) of us he was as he walks out the door, I'll feel complete.

I thought he was you.

[Doc]

Actually, Bobby appears to have made his final disappearance around the time Achewood dies for good.
That would make an awful lot of sense.

[JorgeFabregas]

But wombat has supposedly met Onstad and Bobby. Maybe wombat is in on it. The mind boggles.

He's a master of disguise!

[littlefallsmets]

I mean, I got a personally-signed GoF book from someone claiming to be Onstad... one of the Onstand-ins, if you will... and he was certainly pleasant.

But even when I was a little kid and believed in Santa Claus, I understood that most of the Santas in the malls weren't the actual Santa, they were surrogate Santas covering the smaller territories and doing the recon work while Actual Santa was dealing with the big picture things like not getting me the fuck*ng USS Flagg G.I. Joe battleship playset or the super-rare He-Man Eternia playset.

Even though "Cathy" was of course generated by The Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy to set feminism back forty years, I'm certain that the Cathy Guisewhite person they propped up for the occasional media interviews was indeed a living breathing person and you could shake her hand at signings or whatever. Occam's Razor and all that, a fully corporeal patsy would certainly be a lot cheaper and easier than the alternatives.

Save the cutting edge holography and animatronics for the more high-end cases like Reagan.

Lotsa people have met Clark Kent and Superman too. Superman's got look alike *****s and friends who can shapeshift.

[pmcd9]

There was some talk on here that the end of the Philippe goes home story would have been a perfect place to end the series.  Tidy, no?  But the Citizen Kane strip is a good metaphor for Achewood.  Started out small, hard work followed by a meteoric rise to somewhere near the top. descent into madness.  Ending with a mysterious death and unfinished business.

[Limmo]

A good metaphor, but a pathetic place to end Achewood.
