They changed the Firefox layout and (trying to sound relatable, panicking a little) I feel like that episode of Star Trek where Worf tumbles through parallel universes until he doesn't recognize the bridge controls and his failure to raise shields lets Bajoran separatists damage the Enterprise

ah yes, human a la mode qwantz.com/index.php?co...

T-Rex: What's the average number of arms per human being? Two?

T-Rex: Because if you agreed when I said "two", you are an UTTER FOOL!!

T-Rex: Humans sometimes lose limbs in accidents, misadventures, or irresponsible bets, so the average number of arms per human is actually LESS than two! FRIG, right?
Dromiceiomimus: Frig!
T-Rex: Exactly!

Utahraptor: We were thinking of the median: the middle number in a sorted set!
T-Rex: Yep!

Utahraptor: Or maybe the mode - the most common number across an entire set.
T-Rex: Also plausible.
Utahraptor: Well, you have certainly shown us an interesting if somewhat counterintuitive fact about averages!

Narrator: LATER, SCIENCE CONSTRUCTS A PERFECTLY AVERAGE HUMAN:
Off panel: As you can see, as expected, it has slightly less than two arms, legs, eyes, ears, nostrils, and gonads.
T-Rex: I CAN see that!

Doomquest is an evergreen story, meaning it's in continuity, but not in the CURRENT moment. So rather than taking place "now", it's taking place in the not-too-distant past when he was, for one thing, not dead

Same comics, just a larger presentation! So if you ever look at your book and say "hmm, I wish it were larger, if only there were some way" then I have GOOD NEWS

T-Rex: Ghosts! Are they real? Science says no, but the headless bride who walks through walls in my house -

T-Rex: - as if following a floor plan that was lost in a past renovation -

T-Rex: - says yes!
Dromiceiomimus: How does she say yes without a head?
T-Rex: Sign language.
Dromiceiomimus: Ah.

Utahraptor: You know sign language?
T-Rex: Learnt it for the bride.

Utahraptor: Last question: how does she see YOUR signs without a head?
T-Rex: She doesn't, but I trace letters into her palm.
Utahraptor: Okay. Well. I'd love to meet her, if that's okay.

Narrator: THUS:
Off panel: She's nice, but you must get tired of her excusing herself to use the bathroom, then walking through walls to get to it, but that's your kitchen now and then there's ghost pee in the kitchen.
T-Rex: ...Yeah.
T-Rex: *sigh*

if you believe in yourself you can work within the existing constraints imposed upon you to, in some cases, accomplish a subset of your dreams www.qwantz.com/index.php?co...

Off panel: If you believe in yourself, you can do anything!
T-Rex: ...I can?

T-Rex: I CAN?!?

T-Rex: Okay Dromiceiomimus, I believe in myself, utterly and completely, and what I want to do with that belief is get boats for hands so I can walk around and say "wow, these boats sure are handy".
T-Rex: HAND-y, Dromiceiomimus.
Dromiceiomimus: I got it, yeah. I guess we COULD make some boat-shaped gloves that -
T-Rex: NO! They have to be REAL.

Utahraptor: You want to cut off your hands and replace them with ACTUAL full-sized boats?
T-Rex: I believe in myself!

T-Rex: BUT: they still have to work as hands too. They must be actual boats that are also flesh and allow me sensation.
Utahraptor: How about this: if you believe in yourself, you can do SOME things, not all things. Perhaps not even MOST things.

Off panel: But you can do approximately as many things - and perhaps even slightly more - than you could if you DIDN'T believe in yourself.
T-Rex: Okay you know what that's actually WAY more reasonable

IN THE BIBLE HE'S MOSTLY JUST A PLACE AND NOT A GUY BUT REST ASSURED THERE IS IN FACT A DUDE NAMED "JORDAN" JUST OFF-SCREEN IN SEVERAL IMPORTANT SCENES THAT I DIDN'T WRITE ABOUT / HE DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING BUT HE DOES NOD HIS HEAD REAL VIGOROUSLY AT ALL THE BEST PARTS www.qwantz.com/index.php?co...

T-Rex: The following is my list of Country Names That Could Possibly Be People's Names Too!

T-Rex: #1: Chad!

T-Rex: This is an easy first place, because I knew a Chad once.
Dromiceiomimus: I knew a Chad too, and he wasn't even FROM Chad!
T-Rex: That makes him a true Chad, because otherwise he might've just been trying to rep his country.

T-Rex: #2: Mali. I don't know a Mali, but if I met someone who said "hey my name is Mali" I'd probably say "oh cool!"
Utahraptor: Huh!

Utahraptor: I'd probably say "Sorry, Molly?" and she'd say "No, Mali" and I'd say "Oh okay."
T-Rex: Either way, a solid contender! #3 is Kazakhstan, because I would like to know a guy named Kazakhstan.
T-Rex: "Kaz" for short.

God: SORRY DID YOU JUST RATE KAZAKHSTAN AS A NAME ABOVE JORDAN OR GEORGIA BOTH OF WHICH ARE ACTUAL IN-USE NAMES
T-Rex: ...Maybe?
God: JORDAN EVEN APPEARS IN MY FIRST BOOK THE BIBLE AND THERE'S A SEQUEL TOO BUT JORDAN'S BARELY IN IT
God: WOW

I like how this suggests there's TWO death-themed strips. Because there were! I didn't mean it that way it just happened but I promise the patreon isn't all death ALL the time!!

in my talk today, as an example of the strange things you can do in comics given their sequential but also spatial/simultaneous nature, I included this gonzo panel from 1950s Batman, which I just love in all its weirdness! Yes, I have more intentionally clever examples, but something about this...

part of a page from a batman comic. In one panel, batman leaps from off panel onto a diving board, the motion lines of his rebound travel across to another panel, where we see him finish his leap and crash into the crooks to save the day

I didn't lie!! They REPRESENT the collapse bridge, but any metal from the actual bridge is of course long gone. Though there are "legacy rings" available from retiring engineers that maybe still are?

you can't spell "crisis" without misspelling "cry" www.qwantz.com/index.php?co...

T-Rex: Ah yes, the perfect activity for a lazy afternoon: take the demographic data for people born when and where I was...

T-Rex: ...and use it to calculate my life expectancy!

Narrator: BUT THEN:
T-Rex: Wait wait wait. It says here... I'm more than HALFWAY through my life ALREADY?
Dromiceiomimus: I mean, in all likelihood - yes, absolutely. T-Rex, we're all not gonna be around FOREVER.
T-Rex: But - but - I DIDN'T KNOW! Nobody told me there was more behind than ahead now!!

Utahraptor: What would you have done if you'd known?
T-Rex: I dunno, have a party? Have a CRISIS? BOTH??

T-Rex: Man, I had SUCH PLANS for my midlife crisis too. I was gonna buy a motorcycle, then marry the motorcycle, and then try to convince my ex-spouse from before the motorcycle to be in a poly relationship with the motorcycle.
Utahraptor: It's never too late!

T-Rex: It IS: I missed the middle of my life, so now any crisis I have must be a POST-MIDLIFE crisis!
Off panel: I've never heard of those.
T-Rex: NOBODY HAS, because they're not a thing!!
T-Rex: I MISSED OUT ON MY ONE CHANCE TO HAVE A SOCIALLY-ACCEPTABLE CRISIS!!
