Because of it’s similarity to Jimmy the Murderdog, I got sent many links to it. Thanks to Systemics Tim Odell, Dann Malihom, Jamie Baldwin, Carly, and Rob Russell who all sent word of it my way. You know you’re doing something right when 5 people all send you a cool picture of a dog within 12 hours of its posting.

So here’s the Poochy of murderdogs, I’m gonna call him Benny. Benny the super rad dog.

This comic started as a joke about the people who wear pajamas to fly versus those who wear suits, but I decided I liked the sillier approach. If you like the original idea better, here’s that original comic (largely inspired by Kristen):

And what IS the deal with airline food?

Awesome Con Next Weekend!

I’ll be there and so will many other Art Fighters! Here’s the details:

Happy holidays, all! And sorry for the lack of consistent updates, but the new System website work is in full swing, and I’ve prioritized it ahead of comics lately. It’ll be back on track soon I hope, as we’re entering the time of year where I actually have some time.

Meantime, go spend time with your family! And by “family” I mean “video games”.

Has your future self ever come back in time to stop you from doing something? Or have you ever wish they had?

Howdy New Systemics!

Anyway, a couple important things! First of all, thanks to everyone visiting the site after SXSW. If I met you or you saw one of my talks or you picked up a card, say a quick hello in the comments. I’ll do more of a full writeup about the trip in a separate post that people who are sick of hearing about my trip can more easily ignore.

Looking for more System Remixes

I put out a challenge last night to remix an old System comic with new dialogue. I’ve already gotten a few responses but I’M LOOKNG FOR MORE! More info here »

Howdy New / Old Shirt!

Remember the “bike sniper” shirt? Just in time for the spring biking season and after a bunch of requests, I’m going to start stocking it again. For the next few days it is back into preorder sale. Go check it out and preorder info here »

Super Art Fight DC This Friday

I am super-proud to be able to say that this Friday night (as in tomorrow), I will be helping to bring the ridiculous gospel that is Super Art Fight to DC. If you’re anywhere near the DC area, come check out Super Art Fight at The Red Palace, featuring DC’s own burlesque dancer revue between bouts. Yes, that’s right, saucy ladies and Super Art Fight in ONE PLACE! All the details you need are RIGHT HERE »

“I’m so serious I’m using abbreviations” needs to get used more often. Also, I hate the phrase “in this economy” so g-ddamn much. So much so, I’ve made a drinking game out of it! If you ever hear anyone use the phrase, you shout out “DRINK!” and take a drink. Of anything. Anything at all.  Why do you shout? So people know you’re making fun of them, of course.

Remember that Venn Diagram shirt? It’s only staying this cheap for another couple days. Shirts or GTFO! See what I did there? I knew you would, you guys are smart cookies.

More comicky goodness on Friday, all. As always, thanks for coming by the site and sharing some of your boring day with my website.
