Damn you, Brooke McEldowney!

It was a Doper- I can’t remember who- who introduced me to Pibgorn. It quickly became my favorite comic. Every morning, I go to work, check out the day’s Pibgorn, and then face my day.

But noooooooooooooooo, my little daily pleasure is apparently not acceptable to you, Mr. McEldowney. First, the comics started appearing later in the day. And today, it’s 6:38 PM, and today’s Pibgorn has not yet appeared.

I can’t imagine what you’ve been doing that could possibly be more important than finishing my Pibgorn for the day. If you don’t have time to draw AND jerk off, then you’re just going to have to keep it in your trousers. Get back to that desk, buster, and I mean right now!

You know, no one asked you to make me fall in love with this redheaded fairy. You didn’t have to draw her at all. You could have spent your time in any number of ways. But you started this story, and, Bubba, you’d better turn your strips in on time every day from now on, or you’ll have a cranky reader on your doorstep with a pen and a whip.

You mean the newest one is still not up? I looked first thing this morning, as usual, as I perused the news and my favorite comics, and couldn’t find it at that time. Maybe he drew one too provocative and comics.com censored it.

It was probably Ukulele Ike who introduced you to it. He was the first one I remember mentioning it, and 've been hooked ever since.

Never heard it. Clicked on it. Seems promising. What’s the premise? I assume that knowledge of the backstory is issential.

Well, helpful, anyway. The premise is that the fairy world is real. Evidently, some paranoid types in positions of power have obtained a glimmering that SOMEthing beyond thier ken is sharing the universe with them, and they’ve been making some efforts to study what specimens they can capture. It looks like that phase of the project may be coming to an abrupt and inconclusive conclusion, though.

BTW, if you’re a reader of 9 Chickweed Lane, you will be interested to know that Thorax and Pap made a brief cameo in to the current Pibgorn story line about two months ago. I’d like to see them back.

Also I concur with the OP, word-for-word, in fact (except, of course that it is MY being deprived of the next chapter that is the crucial factor in making this an unacceptable situation – no offense, FQ; in fact, mad props for taking the initiative with the Pit thread).
