Wonderful strip, totally agree re framed strip. I'm too lazy to purchase a frame and cardboard backing or whatever it takes. I'd love to gift the framed strip as a gift too!

Thanks.

I thought about asking folks on Twitter if they had any topics they'd like me to play around with for the next days comic.

Never thought about selling framed originals. I'll have to consider that.

Liked the interview. I also am amazed at how much expression you can put into the square faces. My favorites are Morning Me 05/07/10 & Getting Up For Work 05/21/10. Not that there is a theme going, but …

Yeah, Bug couldn't be done syndicated (Game Shows 05/17/10 &Not So Sexy 05/19/10), but that's part of what makes it relevant to adults, instead of toddler tripe.

Re: Having a hard time coming up with ideas occasionally: How about allowing fans to submit ideas (with a disclaimer that they are not owed any form of remuneration)? Even if they only came up with 4 variations on a base idea, you would still find words and art to make it funny.

Impressed that you do your own lettering, as well as the art. Now if you only sold the original art *with* frames (raise the price to cover it), I would be a sucker to purchase. I'm just to lazy to go to a frame store for that unique size. But with your art all being sized alike, you could probably cut a deal with a frame shop.

I was happy that someone linked to your strip about the ugly kids and I'm not subscribed via bloglines. I really like your simple style. And yes, I did notice that the girl bug is simply the guy bug with a wig. In fact I like the fact that her wig is simply two scrolls on each side of her head.
