Creating the bulletin board o’ evidence was a fun exercise in diving back into the history of the strip and thinking about the things Spy Gal would see as relevant. Pretty much the same thing the readers saw, as it turns out! I love the way Marc drew Jerry’s reaction in the third panel. That’s good stuff right there.
How did Joel Schumacher’s Batman and Robin make me into a better human being? Find out in my new blog, “My Breaking Point.”
My buddy Scott King runs an excellent webcomic by the name of Holiday Wars (along with two-time SuperFogeys Origins artist Michael Odom!) and he has something REALLY special lined up for the next three weeks that I thought you guys just had to know about. Here’s Scott:
HOLIDAY WARS launches GIVEAWAY!
To celebrate the launch of “Holiday Wars” Book 2 we are doing a massive three week contest where we will be giving away some awesome daily prizes; including a Kindle, and a Nook Simple Touch.
“Our readers have stuck around for almost two years now and we thought this was a nice way we could give back to them,” Holiday Wars writer and creator Scott King said. “Sure we are doing traditional prizes like gift cards and ebook readers, but I’m particularly excited about giving away copies of Scrivener and Manga Studio since HOLIDAY WARS was partially created in both programs.”
A full schedule and list of prizes can be found here: www.holiday-wars.com/pics/prizes.jpg
In addition to the giveaway contest, we are also launching a new website and a Kickstarter to fund the printing of Book 1 of “Holiday Wars.”

‘No one has ever seen them together’
The clue most of us missed. ;(
And yet it’s the most obvious!
Rule one of being married: Don’t laugh at your wife’s conspiracy theory.
That should be in a book somewhere.
Should add a subcategory for women who can phase her hand through your your rib cage and pull out your heart if she so felt inclined to do…which she might do when she find out what you did.
Which, except for the phasing part, applies to all women toward their men. But you know they’re thinking it. lol
“That’s a dealbreaker, ladies!”
wow jerry over react much? she is on to you son.
Perhaps my memory is faulty but has the Third Man really made enough appearances for that kind of logic? Bingo Knight could be the Third Man by the same line of reasoning.
I’m a little curious as to what that thing is that looks green and shiny and appears to be in a little plastic bag (just above the question mark at the right side of the board).
That’s a fair point, actually. Third Man hasn’t really made that many appearances. You know what… that’s such a good point that I may need to alter the dialogue a little bit…
As for the thing in the bag, see Scott’s comment below.
Done.
@gnrrg — I’m going to guess that was the special bullet that Jerry was shot with.
She’s almost there with her “Where does he go?” posting. Jerry better start finding some good distractions or he won’t be laughing that nervous laugh of his for long.
Jerry, Spy Gal’s too tough to be belittled away from an idea.
LOVING today’s strip, guys!
Btw, Brock, love to read your blog. Can’t comment for some reason though. When I do every single page of your blog is replaced with a blank, white page that says, “Invalid key [6]. Back” or “0″ on it.
Smooth move, Ex-Lax.
DAG, what a punk. He really proves, over and over what a giant tool he is. How many strips is it gonna be before Vanessa actually just hauls off and decks him? Not too many, here’s hoping.
Agreed JE Draft.
