This comic is autobiographical. Although granted my original idea put forth was pretty bad. Be glad we excised that part from the final script.
I'd also like to claim a little bit of credit for this one. I noted that Karl and I had been lead author on some of the comics. (See if you can guess which ones.) I therefore suggested, being a proponent of even participation, that Jon write one. The result is what you see here...
Jonathan actually HAS had a significant authorial role in a comic prior to this one. Indeed, this fact has already been covered in a prior rant ON THIS VERY SITE. Free your minds, one and all.
