The idea of Oreos falling from the sky came from a comment from an old post.

Jeones Fours
Genghis Kute. I like that.
Merlin's caption is supposed to say MUTATIK Merlin, not MUTATK Merlin.
POC stands for Plain Old Charlie.

Presenting Moe's Tricks
I've had the last panel sketched out for about 10 months now, so I thought I'd use it now.

When Pets Collide
This came from an old strip. The ears and tail aren't destroyed because, since they can stretch the way they can, they're a completely different substance.

The Bottomless Pit
Moe's Halloween basket really IS a bottomless pit! Maybe that's why it took him almost 6 months to eat it all.

Death
Do you think this means that Moe's life, and therefore the blog, will end soon?
I sure hope not! I've been doing this strip for 6 and a half years now, AND I'M NOT ENDING NOW!!!
Even though I want to. But willpower overcomes want!
Willpower Overcomes Want...hmm...maybe I should make a T-shirt out of that!

Arfril Fool's Day
I wanted to try to do this strip as far away from April 1 as possible. I was originally intending to do this joke yesterday, but since I wanted to keep it far away from April 1, I moved it to here and did the Parenting Tip yesterday instead.

Disagreeing Teens
The point of the strip was to have Julia tell Michelle something where she wouldn't be able to ignore it or take it personally, but I kind of had a hard time trying to get that idea out of my head.

Save The Earth. For Reals.
I should've written, "So reduce, reuse, recycle, and you can help save the earth!"

Jocken Matey Fred
All of these ideas except the first two were taken from Pat the Pirate, from my old strip Pat the Pirate.

Wiggle Wiggle
I was originally going to draw the middle panel with a squiggle pen, but the ink didn't really work.

The Pie Thrower
We're working on a design for our own Pie Thrower. Coming soon!
This idea was originally extended to what the Pie Thrower looks like, and how to use it, and the side effect that happens if a pie gets thrown on the machine. But what happened to the machine when a pie got thrown on it was kind of a ripoff of the movie Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, so I just used the opening.

He Ate All But One Slice
I think he left one of the slices because there were too many anchovies on the other slices. By the way, he doesn't like anchovies.

Hellooooooooooooo
I created the first panel to explain why he was doing the "hellooooo" thing. I also doodled a bit of stuff after this thing. In it Thidwick managed to untie himself and the long lips whipped around Bob. Then I stopped doodling.

He Likes Candy
I actually did the candy line myself (minus the evil laugh). I was even eating the same kind of candy, a green Life Saver.

It's In Gray
Happy April Fool's Day! And in case you're wondering, no I didn't color it for real and then scan it in black-and-white. I actually colored it all in shades of gray!

They DO Look Related
The reason all three fish/merfish look the same is, well, that's the only fish I know how to draw.

It's Radiating Good Job Rays on Them!
I tried as hard as I could to try to make it look like the urchin was shining on Nemo and Bubbles in panel 3. Do you think I succeeded?

Now SHE'S Blushing
I was originally thinking of just having her hair just contain as much as it looked like it could, when I drew Monday's strip. But then I drew the mermaid-goes-inside-Nemo's-tail-fin-cartoons, and then it suddenly occurred to me to give the same properties I gave his tail fin to the mermaids' hair, just like I gave the same properties to Merlin's ears and Bob's tail.

BURGLAR ALERT. BURGLAR ALERT. BWAAP! BWAAP! BURGLAR ALERT. BWAAP! BWAAP!
I thought it'd be kind of funny to give Nemo's tail fin the same properties as Snoopy's doghouse. Small on the outside, huge on the never-seen inside.

He's Blushing
As I said on Sunday, it's getting harder to think of urchin jokes. So I switched to this temporarily and let my comic strip brain gears go in a different direction.

He Seems Stubborn
I was originally going to have a silent second panel, and then have Bubbles just go "AAAAUUUUUUGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" in the third. But something about the joke I actually used seemed funnier, so I changed the original to this and added the caption to the 3rd panel.
3/15/10
Oh. So He Doesn't Have 666 Urchins.
It's getting hard to think of urchin jokes.
As a side note, this is the blog's 1200th post!

Wait, He Has 666 Urchins?
I used the numbers 13 and 666 on purpose. Both are considered unlucky numbers (sometimes, at least, for 13).
It's not very easy to create actual hand poses with bare fins. That's why I change them to tiny (or sometimes enormous) hands whenever necessary.
I thought it'd be interesting that Nemo puts his urchins in his tail fin. But where does Bubbles hide his? Find out tomorrow!

She Has Urchins In Her Eyes!
He's using a new stopwatch, so I colored it purple instead of yellow.
I like the urchins in her eyes. They're like the cliché of the $s in someone's eyes.

Humaid?
I was originally going to have him shout "WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?" but I can't remember what made me change my mind.

Besides the joke, what is the funniest/best thing about a comic strip?
I was thinking "the timing." I also like the interaction.
