I'm not one to toot my own cornet but I have been responsible for several "web-comic firsts" over the years. I was the first person (I think) to have a message board for their comic, back in 19-oh-99, I was the first person to call a fellow comics creator an "extremely rude, upside-down headed bastard", and also the first webcomics creator to have to apologise for the previous comment. I believe I'm also the first person in webcomics to have to be physically restrained from punching another comic's business manager for moving tables around in a restaurant when I was trying to enjoy my dinner.
I'm not absolutely sure I would have punched him, I imagine it would have been more of a flying leap, then some grappling. But I am positive that I am the first. I'm not proud, but I'm pretty sure my red mist was justified.
So today, another webcomics first! When you look at the comic, you'll see. Once again, I'm sorry. I always regret my firsts.

I like the blog and I definitely like the comic. What can I say? Life is peachy. And you, Mr A, are the peach.
First instance of severed limb stumps in a web comic? Hmmm.
Dear SWTG
with all due respect to you, your good name and your opinion, I would be a lot sadder spending many thousands of pounds on a book I didn't like myself, than I am about you not buying them.
I'm a bit confused--what's this changing-art-style business about? I've read all the content on the website, and while I have all the books except Teatowel, I haven't read but half of them yet--BUT a quick flip through the aforementioned ninja section in the book didn't make anything egregiously different from the web content jump out at me....
