COMIC SCHEDULE FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS: Comics this week will be Tuesday and Thursday. Guest comics will run next week while I get everything in order for New England Webcomics Weekend.
I got a chance to meet Danielle Corsetto at STAPLE this weekend in Austin, TX. All of the girls in this comic are from her most EXCELLENT comic “Girls With Slingshots.” I highly recommend it. STAPLE seemed like a fun, non-threatening con, and based on Danielle’s endorsement I think I will exhibit there next year.
I was visiting family in Austin, but my wife and I managed to sneak away and finally see “Watchmen.” There was WAY more dong than I expected, but I thought it was tastefully done. Floppity, yet tasteful. I am waiting for someone on YourTubes to put out the “ALL DONG” special edit of the film.
I really enjoyed the movie. It was slow at times, but it seemed appropriate. The story and characters carried a lot of weight and it would have seemed phony if they sped through the narrative. I’m anxious to read the comic now and see what I think after taking it all in. I got the feeling from the movie that I knew where the “comic issues” began and ended. The tension seemed to rise and fall about 12 times during the film. Did I mention the dong? There was a lot of it.

Sweetness! Joel you did an amazing job of getting the GWS girls translated into your own personal drawing style and still maintaining their characteristics! Way to go!

And First!!

Hahaha! I am indeed not disappointed! The inflatable sheep was a nice touch. I love josh's expression in panel 3. Also love Jamie's hat. Also love those Staple pics! Ten more days.

I'm having a faneurism. Combining my two favorite webcomics is too much for my feeble brain!
Also, I second what Krav said about translating Danielle's characters to your style.

I agree, on both counts. This is great Joel!
March 10th, 2009 at 8:03 pm
Although I've never read that comic, I think I will begin to now. That looks awesome.
Josh looks like teh sex in Dr. Manhattan's panties. Maybe it's just me.

Two Josh dong jokes in two strips? I think I'm in heaven!
March 10th, 2009 at 8:11 pm
I mean within two weeks!

Carice (brown hair/glasses) totally made me think of Daria!

On a side note I'm actually surprised there isn't a marketing tie-in with Hollywood and the sex toy industry. A baterang viberator perhaps? Lightsaber dildo that lights up and makes sounds…
March 10th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
They are my 2 favorite too! I'm so excited! Why is Daria there ? lol

I don't really read GWS (but I've been seeing it more and more lately cause of all the DCorsetto talk) and I recognized it was GWS cause of the girl with the big rack.
Sad, I know.

At first, i thought this was just a throwback to Daria. Not odd at all if you are the sort of person Joel presumably is.

Fucking machines have that one covered – perspex shafts lit from the inside, usually pulsing or rippling in time with the motors.
With the lights off it's truly a spectacle!

Well, there was this: http://watchmencomicmovie.com/021609-watchmen-mov...

I'm endlessly amused by the fact that the "Cake toppers" tag resulted in an advertisement for legitimate cake toppers on the side-bar of this page.
March 10th, 2009 at 11:27 pm
I noticed that as well.
Great comic, as per usual!

Blue Penis in your comic! Won't someone think of the children? They shouldn't be exposed to this or superheroes making whoopee with the boobs and all! This comic is shocking!
Children should only be exposed to guns, knives, bone-breaking karate moves and blood, lots of blood.
March 11th, 2009 at 3:03 am
Awesome! You got the GWS Girls perfectly! I haven't seen The Watchmen, yet, so I can't really comment on the accuracy of the forth guest ..er..cast…member.
March 11th, 2009 at 4:15 am
At their core, they're all josh-dong jokes.
March 11th, 2009 at 4:40 am
Does…does it give you cancer?
March 11th, 2009 at 4:58 am
Just your penis.
It also irradiates any STD and will teleport you into any brothel.
March 11th, 2009 at 6:38 am
what i want to know is why i haven't painted myself blue, and then made a horrible "I blue myself" tobias joke.
March 11th, 2009 at 11:55 am
Aaargh, I'm missing out. Damn you, AdBlocker!
March 11th, 2009 at 12:03 pm
Sweet comic today. Huge fan of Girls with Slingshots myself! Manties!!!!
March 11th, 2009 at 2:12 pm
So when are you going to dress up Josh in the "bro" or a "mansier"?
March 11th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
Ok, so when I originally clicked over to view the comic yesterday, I saw the glowing blue prosthesis and freaked out (being at work and all). Well, it occurred to me this morning that I didn't get a chance to check the comic out in the comfort of my own home last night, so today I said eff-it and came back.
It's not too bad actually. I love the fact that Josh is actually wearing just the Dr. Manhattan panties and nothing else in returning them.
Plus, I think I have a new webcomic to add to my daily read. Joel Watson, you rock in every way imaginable!

Which most likely explains the healthy readership amongst gay males.
March 11th, 2009 at 4:44 pm
Hehe… it's an "I Love Ewe"
March 11th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
Love the backgrounds in this one.
March 11th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
The smarmy look on the blow-up sheep gets me every time. Well done, again!
March 11th, 2009 at 9:34 pm
That might be the only thing that could top Gaytos…
March 12th, 2009 at 3:31 am
I saw Watchmen tonight. Didn't like it. Wasn't surprised.
Love the comic though-great job once again!
March 12th, 2009 at 5:06 am
Yeah think of the children Joel! Children should be seeing penis in church…not on the internet!
March 12th, 2009 at 5:06 am
Not that I'm saying Josh has boobs….
March 12th, 2009 at 5:08 am
If you are under 18 please return to the internet for your porn. LOL
March 12th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
i will pay you money to dress up as exactly that for Halloween. or whenever, really. i'll even buy the paint.
March 18th, 2009 at 9:16 am
it's like a Daria / Doug love child
March 19th, 2009 at 5:11 am
Just found you from GWS and I've read the entire archive. Love the strip and it's going straight in my RSS reader!
March 19th, 2009 at 5:44 pm
Thanks, Robert. I will make sure to compliment Danielle on the quality of her readers when I see her this weekend. It seems like nearly everyone who follows that link is reading the whole archive.
March 19th, 2009 at 5:44 pm
In all fairness, I got that from a print danielle did of the porn store. her joke, not mine.
