I always see things a couple weeks in advance, so I never know where the series is at on the live servers - but here is an actually new episode, entitled "The Retreat."

We've got a 4th Panel for you today, a show which covers the writing process for "When Larry Met Mary."

If you are a developer, just, like...  developin' all the time, and you'd like to submit a panel for the conference, this is where you would do that.  

We have yet again distilled the news according to the old ways. This is that.

People have different thresholds regarding spoilification, something we deal with in many comics, today’s included - but the way these break down for the true Game of Thrones enthusiast is apparently quite nuanced.

We put up today’s comic on Friday because it was inconceivable to conceive of thinking that they still wouldn’t have their shit together by today. In the interim, its spicy payload has only grown more intense, like kimchi.

(just in case they get the service back up).

I’ve had a few questions about the Child’s Play Charity Golf Tournament that I wanted to go ahead and cover here in a quick post.

If you played Bulletstorm, specifically on the 360, you have probably checked out Gears of War already. I'm fairly critical of Gears precisely because I do love it, and want it to be better, so that people will see what I do. Ultimately, this will have the side effect of making me feel less crazy.  It's a long-term play.  

So it’s no secret that I am a huge golf nerd. When I was a kid I played Washington Junior golf and then ended up on the golf team in high school. Growing up, golf and art were the two things I did. I remember getting dropped off at the local golf course at six in the morning so I could play a round before school .Then on the way home, the bus would actually drop me off at the same course and I’d just keep playing until my mom came to pick me up around dinner time. Eventually it got to the point were I wanted to start putting more time into my art and less into golf. Pretty soon golf fell off to the side and I was only playing a couple times a year. I still LOVE the game though and every year I tell myself “this year I’m gonna play more!” but so far that has not happened.

Robert considers Mortal Kombat his "game," in the way that some might consider Empire State Of Mind their "jam." He's been busy repairing the business we are perpetually trying to destroy, so he hasn't had a chance to come in and see it. I'm not an expert, like some people; we tend to play the fighters of the mysterious East, though this is at least partially because those are the fighters which exist.

I just wrapped this up. 

The Wii2 rumors are getting pretty dense up in this piece. Microsoft proved that you can get pretty far dropping a new platform before everyone else is ready, to the extent that if you can do it, you should. We've aggregated the most far-out content from blogs, newswebs, and dotcoms, boiling out the excess moisture until all that's left is a kind of dense cake.

Registration for PAX Prime just opened, PAX is that videogame convention we do sometimes, and it tends to sell out so now is as good a time as any to register.  i can remember reading somewhere that we were trying to manipulate people with this kind of language, and I can assure you it isn't the case!  Every, every, every ticket gets sold before the doors even open.
