I mean, it’s obviously not ALWAYS like that, but even just occasionally is enough.  I’m not even making up the bit about getting a big stack of printed material from a complete stranger (which, no, I never bothered reading).

Anyway, there wasn’t a new comic last week, sorry about that.  It was a combination of multiple factors all colliding with each other.  Since the previous page was late, that meant I was running behind schedule on doing the next one before I’d even started.  What’s more, I had both Far Out There’s Fathers’ Day comic and a whole pile of Patreon things to finish up over the weekend, which didn’t help.  And to top it all off… honestly, I had SEVERAL comic ideas to choose from last week, but pretty much all of them wound up sounding uncomfortably close to some Real World thing that went down over the preceding few days.  I’m already bending over backwards just to surround my snark about anime conventions in a thick coating of fictional settings.  I do NOT feel like explaining to somebody that this isn’t trying to be some elaborate metaphor for something people actually CARE about.

…and yes, we have yet more names of fictional works that only I know the context for.  One of these days I REALLY WILL make that wiki to explain what all this stuff means!
