    Jerry looks like what I imagine Chris Sims looks like at the hotel bar during Comic Con

        Some weirdo with a raging hard on for Batman, calls things awesome and neat too often, and likes to drink comically oversized cocktails while threatening comic book writers

            Pretty accurate, but at San Diego I only drank White Russians and Rum & Cokes, and they wouldn’t make them comically oversized no matter how hard I begged.

    Not to start shit, but my limited experience with certain Comics Alliance people indicates that they are somewhat not-nice.

      Somewhat not-nice? Like a two, if on a scale of one to five five is real nice, four is somewhat nice, three is neither nice nor not nice, two is somewhat not nice, and one is real not nice? Like that?

      Man if I cannot split hairs I don’t wanna split nothing.

      And there goes our chances of getting coverage on Comics Alliance. THANKS, PAUL.

        Not while Chris Haley and Curt Franklin have a monopoly on it. Heck even a high schooler gets more coverage than you guys. Doesn’t that make you sad.
        P.S. I love Mocktopus 2nd fave after The Rack

          Dave, I was making a joke. Chris Sims is one of my best friends. I actually quite like the Comics Alliance gang, and not just because Laura bought me a cocktail that one time.

          (It’s because she bought me two.)

          And yes, more coverage would be nice, but I’m chuffed that Haley and Franklin are doing so well and that young Huffman is turning into a legitimate force for good.

            I understood that you were joking. I was joking as well. Only 10% of communication is verbal this is why message boards are so frustrating. I love War Rocket Ajax, Comics Alliance, Agreeable Comics, Lets Be Friends Again (although to be honest sometimes there are too many inside jokes that make it hard to pick up in the middle), and Mocktopus. I discovered all of these things through one another and they all make my internets a much better place and I wish the whole gang nothing but success and Eisner Awards all around. I hope I have now saved face in case I ever meet anyone in this clique.

    Paul,

    We don’t have to be nice because we’re all incredibly attractive. Those are the rules.

    Paul,

    I was totally kidding. I’m the only good-looking one.

    And from what I know, everyone is actually really nice, but sometimes misunderstandings happen in the world of Internet communications. Perhaps that was the case with you, so I encourage you to give us CA people another chance!!!

    Aaron smug look means he has completed getting corrupted by fame and power. Lydia and Rick look like they are going to enjoy themselves. Jerry looks confused over the whole thing.

    The views expressed by certain disgruntled art monkeys do not necessarily reflect those of Agreeable Comics. Again, the CA Smallville Recap is always great, and the site has many other worthwhile features. I check it often and am entertained despite whatever. Thank you.

    At first I thought Lydia was rocking a pompadour for her formal look. I was saddened when I saw it was not the case.
