Comic: “The New Thing in Advertising”
The words are from three Five Iron Frenzy songs: “Abraham Lincoln Beard (First Movement),” “Abraham Lincoln Beard (Second Movement),” and “Abraham Lincoln Beard (Third Movement).”
Yes, I know Baldie’s glasses lense is too big in the fourth panel, so don’t tell me. I also know that one glasses lense is bigger than the other in the first panel, so don’t tell me that, either. The oversized lense in the fourth panel was unintended; the different-sizes lenses in the first panel was intended.
News: Minor updates
- Titles of posts that contain comic-volumes now begin with “Comic:”
- Titles of posts that contain news now begin with “News:”
- I have created an archive listing all the comic-volumes sans blurbs or images. Handy for finding comic-volumes. Updated Fridays.
- I have also created a current comic-volume page. Handy if there’s a lot of other posts on the main page. Updated each time there’s a new comic-volume. Of course, you could also hit Cmd+F (Mac) or Ctrl+F (Windows) and type in “Comic:” to find comic-volumes.
“Be very, very quiet.”
These are the first of the aforementioned “dump” images. Man, does that phrase sound wrong.
News: Flickr’d!
I have just finished moving any comic-volumes that were on IMGboot to Flickr. IMGboot was great in theory but poor in execution. Not to say that I hate IMGboot—I’ll still be using it as a “dump” for random images and CVS/comic sketches—but when it wouldn’t accept a comic-volume, I knew I had to use Flickr.
Comic: “Piehole-Auditory Medicine”
This is based on an old joke of mine. In fact, it’s based on the one funny comic from summer 2001—which I still won’t reveal, since I’m going to redraw it and use it one of these days.

It was living hell for me to get this comic uploaded. First, IMGBoot wasn’t accepting the upload. That’s not really a problem, since I registered a CVS/comic account on Flickr. So I logged into CVS/comic’s Flickr account and went to the upload page. It was taking an eternity. I really wanted Becca to see it, though, so to make sure she did, I emailed it to her.
Turns out that I sent the email to my teacher by mistake. So I sent him an email telling him to ignore it and then forwarded the comic to Becca. I forwarded the “ignore” email to her instead. After she told me, I forwarded the comic to her and Flickr’d the comic by email.
