I personally think this is one of the funnier comics in the whole series. Panel two makes me chuckle every time I look at it, and it’s all due to Puck’s appearance: that near-death state of illness that we’ve all […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This one went down in history as the notorious ‘thong one,’ and thus earned a certain level of infamy on campus. For a whole year after this strip ran, the new head editor would always make a point of asking […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This was a concept that I returned to multiple times over the course of the strip: Satan as president of McNiven University. It was a light-hearted stab at Peter George, president of McMaster University, who in actual fact is a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
