Can robots catch H1N1?

edit: This is a guest comic, due to gabe being sick. Apparently with 'pax pox.'

    I have to admire a man who is willing to make so obscure a joke in a syndicated comic strip

    takes a lot of balls to not appease the garfield/cathy type

    So I take it Mike and Jerry were both killed immediately by swine flu at pax and this is the terrible future of Penny Arcade then?

    gabe is sick with whatever the fuck was infecting people at PAX, so he's sick and sent out some requests for guest strips while he recovers

    this is one of them

    I've always believed that Foxtrot was the best newspaper comic since Watterson quit

    By this point there have been enough PA comics that we should be able to write a program that analyzes the previous comics and extrapolates new ones.

    Of course they'll all just be WoW dick jokes.

    Kind of a shame he missed out on the webcomic era, it seems like he'd have liked the creative freedom.

    Foxtrot is a great comic.

    Easily one of the best in the newspapers. Just a shame he doesn't write it everyday now.

    Other quality newspaper comics:

    Get Fuzzy
    Pearls Before Swine
