Jeez.. Your doctor sucks.. That’s awful.. And this isn’t too personal for me, it’s an autobio comic, it’s up to you to show what happens in your life, who are we to judge? There are far too many commas in that sentence.

TCAF sounded amazingggg. For the record I am not sick of seeing your face at Expo you big doofus, why the hell would you think that?!

Well it happened in March and no I didn’t get much drawing done then. I think it was probably anxiety or panic attack, but no one medically trained bothered explaining it to me. Even when I asked.

the art has definately improved but i don’t think it’s because you put more effort into it- it’s just a nice natural improvement =))) i guess as we get older /more exprienced our drawings grow into themselves!
yes i agree it’s interestign to have a longer plot than usal and pretty serious =0 i wonder how long ago this actually happened? since would have you been able to draw in this condition? Dx i was wondering if it was anxiety but you don’t strike me as a nervous person who would be effected that badly, at least.

Oh no! I hope that everything gets to be okay in the next comic… and in real life too. Mostly real life.

I don’t know what you’re worried about Marc, EVERYONE has seen your penis.

I think people who complain to you that something is ‘too personal’ for the comic really shouldn’t be reading a diary comic. (Unless they are actually in the strip that is.) Its about your life, surely you get to decide what goes up.

Also, how glad are you that you aren’t called ‘Ellderby’?

Having the doctor I had since being three years old poking around my penis is one of the most humiliating things to ever happen to me.

I second the “ongoing plot” idea – you’re gonna become like your own soap!

You know Jake, I didn’t really rush the other ones. I think the arts getting better, maybe, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t put the same amount of effort in. I guess I’m looking at spot blacks more and experimenting with new tools.

I hate having to show my penis to doctors, when they say “it’s nothing I haven’t seen before” I question if they’ve been looking through my bedroom window or something…

Ongoing plot is an exciting development for Ellerbisms! Also, the new-er art looks pretty tight. you aren’t rushing these and it shows!
