Back to the story arc! Ever notice how retailers seem to try really hard not to let you know about their competitors? It always kind of bothered me, even when working in retail. I’ve always thought that it was better service to get the customer what they want, regardless of where they got it. I mean if it were me, I’d be more willing to go back to the super helpful place first. But I guess I’m just weird.
Two SUPER DUPER important bits of News:
ONE: My buddy Dave Hughes over at Battlebarge posted a filler comic I did for him! Go give Battlebarge a read, It’s great stuff! So great, in fact, that when I get the new Links section up and running, his is gonna be the first one there!
TWO: Remember to come back Sunday for an EXTRA ELITE Special Super Extraordinary Sunday Edition comic! Kind of like a Epic weapon in WoW, only for comics. I’m tellin’ ya, it’s gonna be fantastic.
Really.
Oh and don’t forget to keep voting for HHFM on Top Web Comics! We’re in the mid-to high 200’s at last inspection!! (new incentive Monday!)
Ok, so I’m sorry for interrupting the current Omnissiah arc for two days in a row, but this happened to me the other day, and I just HAD to make a comic about it. There are so many things we do and say and accept in our current life, and they strike me as little more than ways to calm the masses or distract us from what’s REALLY important.
Things get so hyped up that before long everyone thinks that whatever we’re talking about is a great idea or at the very least, terribly important, and we all lose sight of what’s actually happening. It’s like some demented shell game we all play on ourselves to make us feel better.
-Rant Over-
Hey Everyone! TWC has us ranked in the mid- to high-200’s!! that’s JUST FANTASTIC. I’m SO excited. So excited in fact, that if we make it to the first page, ranking somewhere between 1 and 100, I want to make a thank-you gift for you all. Any suggestions? Requests?
Finally, this is my second reminder that there’s an Extra Special Sunday Edition coming this week, so be sure to tune in on Sunday…It might even have something to do with Mother’s day.
I’m just saying…
See you Friday!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! a day near and dear to anyone who lives even vaguely close to the United States’ southern border. A day MADE for eating taquitos, burritos, quesadillas, drinking and generally having a good time.
So, HHFM has been around, updating religiously for a whole MONTH! To celebrate, there’s a bunch of cool stuff going on this week, including a double-length comic, an EXTRA-special SUNDAY comic, and a brand-new EXTRAS section up, with a button for it over there on the left. Check it out and go ahead, pick out a banner and add it to your forum signature or website. Use one of the avatars I’ve made. (Some are even previews of upcoming comics… dun dun DUUUNNNN). More extras are coming soon, as soon as I get them done!
See, and here you thought that this was gonna be one of those webcomics that showed up, updated a few times, and then vanished, didn’t you? Admit it, I know you were thinking that. Lemme tell ya folks, I’ve got an update schedule all the way through to JUNE (and growing). I told ya… we gots PLANS.
Finally, HHFM has jumped all the way up to 360 on TWC! Isn’t that fantastic?? Go click on the button and let’s see how high we can get it!
Have a happy and SAFE Cinco de Mayo, everyone. And we’ll see you Wednesday!
From the TMI file: in a game called Warhammer 40,000, technological know-how has devolved to a religion, where ‘tech-priests’ call on ‘machine spirits’ to ‘heal themselves’. Their machine-god is known as the Omnissiah, and they have to learn and follow ancient rites and prayers to revive and appease the machine spirits.
We call it cussing at the machine while we fix it.
Anyway, I’ve only gotten one poor, lonely single email about wanting desktop images… so unless I get more, it’ll be put on the backburner for a while so I can get other things finished. Either way, you all get more content, and I’m happy to do it.
As far as emails go, that one lonely email is sad all by himself. He needs friends to keep him company, (and to prevent me from singing to keep him company). So drop me a line! I’ll be sure to read it. Probably even respond to it! (gasp)
Someone asked me yesterday what voting for HHFM actually does, so I thought I’d tell you all as well. You know, in case you were wondering… or even if you weren’t… I would be ecstatic to make it to within the top 100 comics of TWC, because that puts a link for us on their front page. It’s a tool to get more readers, which encourages me to write more comics, so we can get more readers, so I write more… well you get the idea. I’m trying to turn a vicious cycle into a vortex of web-destruction that sucks everything into my comic, and thereby rule the world. So far, HHFM has made it all the way to the mid-450’s on Top Web Comics! So Clicky the Linky and add another vote!
See you next week!
