A kernel of truth

My last two comics each contain a kernel of truth. My cat decided he needed to mew nonstop for an hour or so each night for about a week. He has since stopped.

We were considering getting one of our nephews a toy Indiana Jones bullwhip. Two Christmases ago we got him a Batman mask, but instead of gloves, it came with a chest-plate covered with fake muscles. If you pressed the Batman logo in the middle, it played the most hilarious sound ever made by a toy. A heroic voice would say "Look out, evil doers! I'm Batman!" Then there were sounds that were meant to simulate powerful blows landing Batman exerting himself, but sounded more like Batman being pummeled. Awesome.

Speaking of gifts, you know what makes a great one? MY BOOK!

I think I pre-ordered your book like 100 years ago -- and I never got it!

Seriously?! Did you order it from Amazon?

I just searched through your archives, and I think what I did was order it the first time you said we could pre-order it, which was via Dark Horse.
