it's weird, your comics were starting to build quite an interesting story, but then you done some strip about Tinman, it doesn't make sense.
and now look, Tinman has used one of your panels in his latest strip, thus confirming that he does read it!
which then begs the question, was that all you wanted in the first place? to make sure that he reads your comic? to make sure you have at least ONE viewer?
this all just seems a little dragged out does it not?
