Hourly Comic Day 2012! (Click all the way through for the large size.)

Firstly, Lucy Knisley wins the day!

I didn’t think too much on scale or detail… so I ended up with lots of problems. Maybe next Year I will make a template. Since I wasn’t sure about the text being legible, I didn’t add much, but here are some notes…

Panel #1-3, typical slogs through can’t-create blocks, and thoughts of putting my eye out.

Panel #4-5, I was reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.

Open Letter to John Green:

Thank you. Thank you for “The Fault in Our Stars”. Thank you for your part in building the Nerdfighter community. Thank you for being BFFs with Hank, as well as being his brother. Thank you for making an adorable kid, caring for and loving him, putting even more of the Green brand of awesome into the world, hopefully leading to many generations of fighters of world suck.

Panel #6, didn’t work. Off to bed.

Panel #7-9, At the end of a week long circus of rotating pain and medical issues, this night, my back just would not stop seizing up. A bit after 7, I managed to nod off, but was up again at 9 when my back, belly, and knees became unbearable and woke me up. So I sat up for a while on the edge of my bed. For some reason it is the only comfortable seat in the house right now.

Panel #10, Woke up, brushed my teeth, then realizing blood was spilling out of my mouth. Periodontal problems recur now and then (I do what I can, but no dental coverage, and still lacking a diagnosis otherwise for pH issues), but this much blood was kind of new.

Panel #11-12, SO hungry, but too tired and sore to do much cooking. I’ve also decided that the sammich shop next door is the best sammiches I’ve had since living on the east coast.

Panel #13-17, pretty self-explanatory.

Panel #18, Dammit, Roderick. (Listening to YouTube posts from his recent show in NYC.)
