Welcome to Chapter 13, “The Sidekick and His Gal!” This one is a gonna be nice and short and much more intimate and smaller in scale than the last chapter. Who needs a break? I sure do. I know Marc does. Be sure and check back on the new blog post below for a link [...]

Tangerine quoting Gandhi? You better believe it. I really love how different this chapter feels already, compared to the last one. Marc handles the quiet stuff just as well as the big action.

This strip is a fun one because it catches new readers up with what’s going on while also placing a few easter eggs for longtime readers to catch. That ticker at the bottom of the screen isn’t just for show! Can you name the references? Bonus points if you can provide links. Don’t forget to [...]

I know you guys are always on the lookout for the small details in the strips (and with good reason!), but Marc has really upped the game. There’s some nice, subtle stuff going on in this strip that wasn’t scripted but that Marc threw in there because he’s the good kind of comic artist–he’s not [...]

I thought everyone had forgotten that invisibility is one of his powers! Big thanks to Marc for pulling out all the stops for this double-sized episode! Been a lot of talk [...]

You know what’s the worst thing you can do to someone? Anyone? Just go up to them and say “I know what you did.” Doesn’t matter if you really know or not, we’ve all got things were ashamed of or trying to hide. Things we’d rather people didn’t know about us. Sometimes, I think about [...]

I’d alway meant to check back in with Tom before now, but I could never really find a good reason for doing so within the main strip. Readers with long memories will remember that it was Tom to whom Jerry told his origin story. You see that and Tom’s reaction to Jerry’s origin, starting here. [...]

What happens when one fan favorite (Swifty) makes fun of another fan favorite (Soviet Sam)? My guess is: their awesomeness cancels each other out and now you all hate them. (Or very much not.)
