There is only the joke. There is no joke.

Super Art Fight Kickstarter’s Final Days!

We are wrapping up on our Super Art Fight book Kickstarter, and can still use your help! While we have met our goal (thank you so much) we are still looking to make the book bigger and better, and are close to our next stretch goal. If we can raise another (as of this posting) $444 we will be adding an amazing comic about a prehistoric Super Art Fight to the book courtesy of Michael Bracco. You can learn more about it here.

Thank You Awesome Con DC

Thanks to everyone who came to Awesome Con. It was by far the one of the best cons I have ever been to, which is the highest praise I can possibly give to a convention that did not exist before this year. Oh, and it was less than 2 miles from my house, which also made it the most convenient convention I have ever been to. We did our amazing Super Art Fight on Saturday to a completely packed room. I’m finding YouTube vids of it and will post separately in the next few days.

For a little behind the scenes, sales were amazing. The best I’ve ever had at a convention. I had to run home on Saturday after the dealer room closed and bring back more prints and shirts to sell, because I had run out of everything. On top of that the fact that it was so close to home and I didn’t have to pay for a hotel or anything, it was flat out amazing.

I’ll write up more about the show soon, but thank you again to all who came out! As I always like to say, it’s great to put a commenter-name or site visit number to some faces. It’s heartwarming to know real people out there read this nonsense. Thank you.

More Shirts Soon

Keep your eyes peeled to the site because I’m going to be reordering a bunch of shirts that I am now out of over in the HilariAwesome.com store. If you want a women’s shirt in any size, I don’t keep them in stock but am happy to order them for you. Just email me at systemcomic at gmail dotcom with which one you would like and what size and we’ll take it from there.

Welcome to System in the Wild, where people find “The System”-style signage out in the world, or signs that just don’t make any damn sense, and send them to me. Then I post them. There’s already a lot of these posts, check them out here.

From Systemic Angela (thanks, Angela!)

Saw this and thought i should send it in. Not sure what kind of instruction this is… Use the warmth to reveal the crop circles in your head?

If you see any awesome signs, mail them into systemcomic at gmail dot com, subject line “System In The Wild”. I’ll post the good ones!

If you can also figure out a way to be a Graphene Aerogel, you’ll really have it beat. (Thanks for the link, Christopheeerr!) Also, while I was suffering from #1 but meanwhile Dern was suffering #2. Let’s hope neither of us suffer from #3 and, y’know, feel better. And thanks to Marty for help with the last panel!

UPDATE: Hey Systemics! What other ideas for effective diets do you guys have? Cutting out carbs with a knife? Jumping really high? Standing around fatter people? Slowly buying baggier clothes (As Rossmom mentioned)?

See You at Awesome Con DC This Weekend!

Yes, that’s a big damn map.  It’s also a big damn convention, and now holds the record for “closest convention to my apartment” clocking in at a whopping 1.5 miles away! Thanks to Dawn Griffin, I’m able to share with you EXACTLY where I’ll be on the map above. Thanks!

Remember, the rules of all my con appearances apply: come by the table and say hi if you read the comic, with NO PRESSURE of buying anything. I really cherish the chance to meet the people that are the commenters and numbers in all my analytics. Prove to me you’re a real person, come by! Remember the secret word, “TACOS” and get a FREE Jimmy the Murderdog sticker!

Of course, if you really want to come see me, we’re doing SUPER ART FIGHT at Awesome Con on Saturday:

5PM, Room 103A – Super Art Fight

Hilarious, ridiculous, insane and most of all, stupid – Super Art Fight is the self-described “Greatest Live Art Competition in the Known Universe”. A unique mixture of live art and pro-wrestling, we doubt it’s like anything you’ve ever seen before!

Since this ad campaign has been running in Melbourne, Australia for a couple of years now, I’m really surprised that no-one has sent it to you yet. Every time I see one, I think of The System.

You’re gonna want to click on that. It gets better. Or click here. Oh, and it won an award, good on them.
