Episodes now with transcripts

Posted: 1 month ago

I've started adding transcripts to comics. Currently only new comics will have transcripts, but gradually I'll add transcripts to the archives. You can choose to "Show" or "Hide" transcripts, which will save a cookie to your browser ("Show stores the cookie, "Hide" deletes it). Transscripts are visible on the episode pages (permalinks) only, and not on the home page.

This is the alien half of a promotional Life on Mars set 1195 Alien Encounter. I really like the Life on Mars aliens, it's a pity it didn't last long. The new Mars Mission aliens are rubbish.

This is perhaps my most political episode to date. My inspiration for it was the type of people who spout bigoted, prejudiced, stereotyped views about various groups and people, while completely missing the non-stereotypes within their midst. Or if they are aware, they brush it off with an "oh, not you, mate, of course, not you, you're alright, you're one of us".

If anybody is a Casey & Andy webcomic fan, the name Bob was chosen entirely coincidentally. However, I may use that serendipitous naming to make an homage to "Casey and Andy" when it ends later this year.
