I cam here hoping for/expecting an explanation of yesterday's comic, but nooooooo. I guess I should have expected that by now.

Apparently, the Canucks are excited about you.

You're just going to keep harping until we get a new Robo-Joe toy, aren't you?

Then where will you set your sights? Scoop? Female Range Viper? A Crystal Ball/Psycho Orb 2-pack?

...of course, none of those are really more ridiculous than the Codename: Montezuma's Skeleton army-builders you already made fun of. It needs to be something quixotic...

You're going to demand a Hector Ramirez figure, aren't you?

I just want a new version of all my favorite 90s clods. Metalhead. Cesspool. Maybe a Septic Tank for him to drive. Oh, and DEFINATELY the 90s version of the Snow Viper. You know, the one that traded in the snow shoes for a snow board.

He was re-issued in decent colors with the snowboard back in 1998.

G.I. Joe collectors suck. We're probably gonna get a convention-exclusive "Plague" pack or something.

Fired editorial cartoonists should go on a wave of old-school political graffiti.

I am now picturing unemployed political cartoonists scrambling up ladders with cans of spraypaint to deface the highway overpass connecting the two Microsoft campuses with a stinging "Wasteful Government Spending."

Depends on how much traffic their site will get! Basically no people go out of their way to read editorial cartoons. I think they're a dying medium.

It'd be really awesome for me to be wrong, though!

The Robo-JOE vs. Destro print becomes available to buy online when? You seem to have forgotten that information, sir... and I need to purchase one badly.

I'm concentrating on the Joe convention at the moment, but if you Paypal me the usual $25, I can get one to you next week!

Dang, they really are fired.

I wonder how well Ethan's going to settle into any new work he finds.

Not like we're ever going to find out. The comic is still called Shortpacked! and they proved to Galasso that the store is still viable. He's just going to start over with a new crew. The new cast'll probably start either monday or monday after next.

I'm now taking bets as to what character from a previous Walkyverse comic will turn up. Me, I'm looking forward to DP451 running the customer service desk.
