    I was writing an email to Gabe/Tycho et all to see if they wanted to sponsor me for a Children's Hospital charity run.

    I'm walking down to Portage Avenue to watch the Gabe Day parade at noon.

    Or to get a Sandwich.

    One of those.

    So wait, does christmas in September insinuate that there is mass gift giving involved, or that Gabe is the next messiah?

    I think in Gabe's mind these things would go hand in hand.

    I think everything about the reflection is kind of off. Look at his right hand. Perhaps this is just Tycho's 'Jessica'?

    Yeah, the "haha gabe in panel 2 is hilarious" when there is no Gabe in panel 2 shit is old as hell, and not funny.

    However, tycho's facial expression the the last panel is key to this comic, and is funny. Removing his reflection would deny us critical information. Did he know there was a parade going on? Or did he just open his blinds and finally witness the festivities? Is he happy? Is he surprised? Upset?

    From his reflection we know that he knew the parade was going on, we know that he is upset with and lying to Gabe, and we know that he is very, terribly disappointed in Canada.

    you should get a helmet, duct tape a stick on it and dangle a bottle of scotch in front of your face, just out of reach

    you'd come in first, I'd bet

    See you're assuming the scotch would ever make it to the stick.

    This is one of those comics that catch me by surprise. I only see the first 2 panels, then I move down and its the parade balloon that kills me. Excellent comic today.

    Yeah, I saw the orange text box, thought about what games had just come out. I was 100% sure it was a Halo 3 comic.

    I too, was pleasantly surprised.

    At first I wondered why Gabe had grown to a god like size. You know, maybe someone went all Stay Puft with some demon but came up with Gabe.
    A float's alright though.

    The expression is in pane 1.

    And the bandwagon is a pane in the glass, but at least people aren't making puns about it.

    I'm sorry but our test lab has calibrated our equipment using the latest methods and was shown to be over 99.029485% accurate in several million runs, so at best this comic is a 105.01733333(repeating of course).

    No WAY does it even approach 109. I'm sorry to inform you but it's possible your test equipment needs to be adjusted at this time.

    Gabe I'm really sorry but I promised someone I'd do this.

    He wanted me to ask you if you'd put Lucario in as a recurring character in the strip, "like how Charles and Jesus are".

    Yes, the Pokemon Lucario.

    All you have to do is say "No" and I'll relay that to him. I don't think he's going to stop asking about it until he gets an answer.



    (But on the topic of the comic, I honestly do love Tycho's expression reflected in the window. He's still groggy and the reality of the huge balloon in front of him hasn't set in yet.)
