The Code

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Or in this case a “perfect day” is about how many frozen pizzas you can eat before passing out.

Arthur truly aspires to greatness.

We got the idea for this comic from MOSTLY true events. Kris and I were out getting dinner a la tacos when he reaches into his pocket and pulls out that exact fortune. When I asked him why he carries it, he told me “To remember…”. I then pointed out how today he drew a web comic for a few hours then went to his college class. Then got tacos.

The taco part is pretty good.

I guess.

This is probably the fastest we've done a comic from inception to completion. It was almost finished in one sitting, but by the time 3 am rolled around we found it hard to stay focused.

It's funny, I technically don't have to stay up with Kris while he finishes drawing these comics late at night, but I sort of feel…

you know, useless if I don't.

Guess that makes me a good partner.
