Latest Comics

One of the many things I am planning to do this weekend, and we'll see what percentage of these things get accomplished, but playing Metroid in the dark sounds real, real good. I'm up to my ass in some kind of discourse about it, there's a talky guy who is or isn't a big deal depending on who you talk to, or… it's ugly? It looks like a PS3 game? That's just what I read. When you become a connoisseur like me, a man of taste and culture installed in the hierarchy of elite sense-making institutions, you start fetishizing a nice HDR implementation over raw triangles. I can't expect you to understand, face down in that ditch, playing Fuck, Marry, Kill but the choice matrix consists of three different rats.

They kept making them even after I stopped watching them, and now they made even more, at such a late hour that some of the cast are ambulatory skeletons and the rest have AARP cards. I grew up in the "historical period" Stranger Things takes place in, so there's always a certain amount of stuff you just gotta put up with I guess. The things that bother me are - for the sixteen year old that lives here - pure retro candy. But, seriously though: I was under the impression that we all thought season three was kinda ahh.

I mean, I gotta make comics and stuff because it's a big part of my job. And Tim Sweeney and I probably wouldn't get along in real life; some people are literally too smart to talk to and I think he's probably one of them. I really, really want him to be wrong that AI will be involved in all future (game) production but I'm afraid he isn't.

Sometimes we swap who has the experience in real life for who has it in the strip, sometimes so one of us doesn't get in trouble with Kara, and sometimes because each of the strip's primary participants - the pieces Gabriel and I move around tactically in the comic - has access to different words and tones. Gabriel could deliver a similar sentiment to Wednesday's first panel, perhaps, but it got a strong assist from baroque language and a whiff of ancient mystery. In the case of today's offering, it's actually my neighbor - but Gabriel's exasperation made it more fun in our opinion.
