Notice that one of the twins is wearing short sleeves and the other long sleeves? I mentioned considering making this their permanent attire in a recent strip.

It's Almost Upgrade Time
I tried to find a good one, but I couldn't find a variation on the shading that looked right on me.

If We Could All Do Something Like That...
Since the twin under the blanket doesn't have a brand-new arm, I figured she wouldn't be very interested in moving it around or showing it off, so she's wearing long sleeves. I've actually considered making this part of their permanent attire.

So...They Know Now
They're talking about this strip, if you can't remember.
Since people, when they get new/replacement limbs/body parts, they appear to want to move them around as much as they can, I made Heidi move her arms around a bit more than she normally would have. I also decided to have her wear short sleeves, as though she's showing her new arm off.

What About Finding the Golden Twinkie?
As I mentioned in a previous post, I think I've found one webcomic host I think I'm going to switch IWMA to.

Apocalypse-Proofing Time!
I really actually have no idea if garlic is supposed to ward off zombies. That's why I added Julia's line "Garlic?"

In A Pre-Apocalyptic World...
I've actually started seriously considering moving IWMA to its own domain, as well as a new host (such as SmackJeeves).

Is That The Same Pink Pony Julia Saw In Her Dream?
In case anyone's wondering, Moe just cut a hole in the front of his present with a small utility knife.

That's a Heavy Present
Wow, I...didn't really realize that 17 kilograms was actually almost 37.5 pounds when I did this strip...maybe I should've stuck with "17 pounds" like in the original sketch.

*Sigh* Double Posting Again
I came up with these when we bought OUR Christmas tree yesterday. For some reason, "price" was the last one to be added to the list.
Also, I wonder where Lily is in today's strip?

Who Let The Grinch In?
I always seem to do that red jagged talk-bubble thing whenever someone's talking angrily (even jokingly, as here).

Art Imitates Life
This happened to me not too long ago. All of these objects broke within a WEEK's time span. Although, not quite in this order. My order was actually whiteboard (which actually wasn't a whiteboard), stereo, sweat pants, pen.

Eight Beat Panels In One Strip...
I figured this may also work in a daily strip, due to the HEAVY amount of beat panels, but I later reasoned that making it a Sunday made it funnier, as it displayed the length of the staring contest better. Also, I think Lily's hair got longer near the end of the second row.

Ah, The Perils Of Cartoon Anatomy...
For those who weren't aware, Movember is Moustache (or Mustache) November, which has something to do with prostate cancer awareness.
Originally I was planning on doing this strip much earlier, although I later realized it would work best as an ending to the month, and moved it to today.

The Day the Trash Can Came to Life
The title of this post (and, indeed, this strip itself) came from a story I wrote when I was much younger called "The Garbage Can That Came To Life."

Pizza Time
This strip was originally a "cheese snack," and a mouse grabbed a HUGE hunk of cheese (i.e. bigger than a human), and someone else said Julia's line. I changed it to this because...well, the original idea was actually made by my brother in his own family comic (which can't be found anywhere public, unfortunately).

Julia Finally Dreamt That
The reason I say "finally" in the title is because, in an earlier strip, Julia said that not even her dreams would let her become President of IWMA.

The Final Catch Up
Yes, Charlie has a mustache. It's for Movember (Moustache November), for prostate cancer awareness.
I actually was considering running for President again–then I could repeal that Amendment Moe made that the President can bug me whenever I do something minutely incorrect.
I don't think I drew the podium right in the last panel...
Yay, we're back on track!

Catch Up Part Seven
When I first drew this, I was going to have Irene sticking her head in from the side. But almost immediately after I drew that, I realized that since they're underwater, she COULD be hanging upside down. I almost never get to do that, so I decided to seize that opportunity.
I've never seen one of my characters appear so calm around an eraser. (I haven't done eraser jokes for a while, either.)
Yay for the Muppets!
Not quite sure if I was able to digitally capture the transgreen effect...
The Election Week strips will appear sometime tomorrow.
