It was not easy, getting this comic out there on time for you all. With everyone already away for Christmas, it was up to me to get this comic up before I headed home. Naturally, I forgot, and didn't realize it until i was a couple miles down the road. I pulled aside and checked my laptop, hoping to find a copy of the comic there so that I could just upload it from the parents' house, but was met with disappointment. So, I returned home, hooked my computer (which was in my car being taken to CompUSA to be serviced) back up, and am here now typing this for all of you. As if that wasn't enough, it seems there is still a bug in the comic upload script, so I had to work around that as well.

Anyway, some people have already asked about our use of the letter K. This comic should offer some insight.

Ugh again

I had set everything up so that the comic should have appeared on Sunday as per the goal of a weekly schedule, but what I did not do was make sure that the site-generation script did not have any bugs that appear only when we have two comics. The issue seems to be resolved now, so enjoy.

So about this one...

I wish to formally apologize for this comic. It's terrible. Anyway, here's a brief explanation:

The Time Traveling Sorceress Ultimecia is the vilainess of Final Fantasy VIII, a video game from Japan. She is badly developed and largely memorable only for speaking with too many K's. So she interjects from her throne room, suggesting that we rename ourselves, and curses Karl in her delightfully unique style when he refuses.

Except, of course, that we have that name anyway. Oh well. And it just reads and looks terrible. But we've got a pretty decent one for next time, so hopefully you can forgive us.
