Hurrah! Finally, I finally saw one of my own strips on the front page when I came to this site. I can now die a happy man.

If anyone is interested, it was one this one:

NSYNC- The awful truth finally dawns on Joey by kramer_vs_kramer 10-04-01

What the hell am I doing here?

I haven't seen one of my strips appear on the front page in about two months... It was this one.

Insecurity by Drexle 6-19-01

Wow, look at Voltron go! He slays the robeasts and saves the day on Planet Aris! Form Blazing Sword!!! Wow, look at those Transformers! They're so cool! They can turn into all sorts of neat things, and can lord their might over the planet!!! Autobots, transform and roll out!!! Wow, this feeling of insecurity must be like what all those women complain about when *they* watch TV... M.A.S.K! It's the mighty power that will save the daaaaay!

I haven't seen one of yours on the front page yet, Kramer. I'll try to remember if I do, if you're curious which one it is.

Comic Contest #1 - I have no witty title for this... by BigEvilDan 2-10-01

Hmm, why such a gloomy backdrop? This is the first comic contest. It's the only allowable backdrop. Is that why I'm talking to a bug as opposed to a real character? Yup. But you may want to lay off the fourth-wall breaking stuff. The idea is to test the creativity of the artist by working within certain limits... Don't worry, gabe_billings is such a brilliant and caring person that he won't mind a little self-reference. Hmm..I guess shameless brown-nosing is an excellent substitute for creativity.

I thoght seeing this on the front page was worth mentioning.

That's an idea actually. They should do what Popbitch does, and instead of just having random comics on the front page, have comics that are in some way "approved" by someone, so the front page comics are guaranteed to be quality. This would then stop any more of mine appearing.

You reported my Evening Times one appearing on the front page, and I recently saw this other one appear:

Have you seen the old man in the closed-down market? by andydougan 6-14-01

Don't be shy, give it a try, help the baldie homeless guy! Curses and then some! I've caught that Big Issue vendor's eye. Now I'll have to buy a copy. That'll be a lovely, immortal British pound, plizz. Hey, didn't you used to be that bald twit off TV? Yeah, but I was stabbed in the back by Michael Portillo, who sabotaged my election campaign. Now I work in my dad's willy-waashin' shop. So you've got a job?! Bah! I'm not here to subsidise people.

I was quite pleased it was one of my good ones (relatively speaking).

But who would decide if they were quality?

Ah, them Brits... I don't get their jokes, they don't get my jokes.

...Trot and Cap'n Bill were free from anxiety and care. Button-Bright never worried about anything. The Scarecrow, not being able to sleep, looked out of the window and tried to count the stars.

GASP!

Anyways, I always see comics on the front page from you guys. I've only seen one of mine there and it was a really crappy one.

Mediocrity at its most average.

Woohoo! Chicka's back!

It's a real dilemma when one of your crappier comics pops up on the front page. You want to slap a ten on it, thinking that maybe, one day, voting results will be displayed once again, but you also know that it is far below the best in your repertoire...

What kind of cheese?

Oh, I can see why you are a newspaper journalist, Andy - always asking the hard questions. ;)
