Yay for new comic, albiet out of order. I'd like to thank online tanslators for almost all of Puppet Pal Nietzche's dialogue. Sometimes comics have to go through 15 or 20 different storyboards before we're happy with them. This one went through two. This is probably the first time alot of you have seen Proffesor Spoerl, our midget philosophy professor, but it's not the first time he's appeared. You should see him again in some of the upcoming archive strips.

Penguin Knife fights is also a running doodle in my notebooks. Usually I'm pairing up different penguins, that look ultimately the same except for their costumes. My favorite match up to date was The Batman Penguin vs The Penguin Penguin. I was toying with the idea of doing another comic dedicated to Penguin Knife Fights, but the last thing I need is another project I don't work on in lieu of playing Star Wars: Kights of the Old Republic 2

By the by, I don't know if I told you guys. Ryan moved up to Maine. Chuck quit his job working all wierd hours and started working a 9 to 5 job like me. Why is this important? Most of these DC comics were written primarily by Ryan and I. Ryan tends to gravitate more towards darker, intentionally offensive humor. With Ryan in a more difficult position to work with, and Chuck around more, I'll be doing more storyboarding with Chuck than Ryan. Chuck, is much much better at posing a goofy scenario and building on it in a logical way. Both things are major factors in the style of our humor, but jsut expect more of these to be Chuck influenced than Ryan influenced.
