Not many people are going to get that.

And I like undergrads, fucker!!!

It's both funny and original.

Your comic is not, but at least you use proper punctuation and grammar, unlike alot of the newbs that show up here.

Have fun.

I read your comics because you said *insert clever ruse*, etc., rather than actually trying some supposedly clever ruse, such as telling us that your comics suck, or telling us that they're great, or pretending to threaten us if we don't read them, like everyone else does. Thank you for that.

It turns out that at present you only have one comic. As a rule, I don't like ongoing series, I don't like comics that exist only to introduce something, I don't like comics where the characters break the fourth wall, I don't like comics that stretch the panel background needlessly, and I don't like comics with no real punchline. So, I don't like your comic. But I do encourage you to make some more comics and show them off. If they deliver on your promise to be "funny and original", there's a good chance I'll like them.

I don't know what "Undergrads" is, but I thought your first comic was pretty good. Your second one was outstandingly good. I want to see more.

Especially since I don't mind ongoing series; I don't think your comic (even your first one) exists only to introduce something, though I do think it has a punchline; I don't mind breaking the 4th wall (as long as it's not done too often); and I can deal with stretching backgrounds (although it's true if you'd just put spaces in where they needed to be in the 1st comic you wouldn't have stretched it).

In short, I like your comics a lot so far. But with only 2, who can tell?

I like how you mis-spelled "nail" in the first panel, then spelled it correctly in the last panel, when you were asking how to spell it.

The fact that the character pronounced it wrong both baffles and amuses me.

Make more.

Good evening. (This is subject to change relative to the time of day and respective time zone.)

I concur with evil_d on the *insert clever ruse* bit. Your second comic is outstanding, and I hope you write more like that. As I've said before; it's nice to see a GOOD new strip writer. Those aren't in abundance.

Kudos!
