We've all noticed how first time comic makers tend to use the nail head guy. I find it to be an interesting phenomenon. Whenever you find a first comic that includes the nail head guy, post it here.
The best part is, we can make fun of them and they can't defend themelves unless they donate.

I love this one, because he asks for the hammer, then he seems to be reading the note the second guy was reading in the first panel, then the second guy hammers a nail into his head instead of giving the hammer to the first guy who cries, "Not again!", leading us to believe it's typical for him to ask someone for a hammer only to have them instantly hammer a nail into their own head.
It's high art, people. You don't see this often.

Okay, so this is Sicarius1's second comic, but I wanted to post it. I just like how in the 2nd panel the stickman seems to be a victim to the narration, it's almost 4th wall breaking. The punchline is also gold.

I think the guy asking for the hammer in the first panel has moved to the right side in the second and third panels. That would be a lot funnier I guess.

"We are walking like things that are walking." "I am a squirrel."
That's exactly like the annoying little cartoons I draw on post-it notes and stick on the cash registers at work.

As luck would have it, I hit the random comic button and a good old nail in the head comic appeared. And yes, it was there first attempt.

I'll go ahead and make fun of myself then. This was probably my 5th or 6th comic. No spelling errors that I caught, but I do have the person with a nail in their head and for some reason, they also have the hammer in their hand. I was supposed to have done it to them, and then I guess I put the hammer in their hand.

I didn't use him until #7! Is that some kind of record?

Wow... back when it was the Low Pass Industries Comic Strip Creator... Christamighty, the actual strip maker is coming up on its fifth birthday in a few months!

I didn't get hammered until comic #7 either:

For some reason, he never escaped panel 2 ...

16538

It wasn't till nearly a month later, after several other appearances, that he got third-panel billing, but not for the hammering per se:
