Webcomic Saturday Market

SabreMau

Take the MAX train (Blue or Red lines; the Yellow and Green lines pass by a few blocks over) downtown to the Skidmore Fountain stop, and visit Webcomic Saturday Market! Here, you will find an eclectic assortment of artisans, displaying an infused organic palette of stuff and things they thought up.

That was a pretty good end to the last thread.

Uh, did anyone rehost those last daisy Persona 4 comics? Photobucket hosting died for them.

Winning means being first all the time.

Edit: Also, reading this comic



led me to reading the wikipedia article for aqua regia, which in turn led to me learning that

wikipedia wrote:

When Germany invaded Denmark in World War II, the Hungarian chemist George de Hevesy dissolved the gold Nobel Prizes of the German physicists Max von Laue and James Franck in aqua regia to prevent the Nazis from confiscating them. The German government had prohibited Germans from accepting or keeping any Nobel Prize after the jailed peace activist Carl von Ossietzky had received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1935. De Hevesy placed the resulting solution on a shelf in his laboratory at the Niels Bohr Institute. It was subsequently ignored by the Nazis who thought the jar—one of perhaps hundreds on the shelving—contained common chemicals. After the war, de Hevesy returned to find the solution undisturbed and precipitated the gold out of the acid. The gold was returned to the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the Nobel Foundation who recast the medals and again presented them to Laue and Franck.[5][6]

It'll never catch on.

The Spice Girls, however, will be popular forever.

Then there was that French short film a couple years back that adapted Lackadaisy characters into a 3D animated story about a cat burglar. Click Video -> Le Film -> play button for the subtitled version.
