Just because it needs to be said; Thanks to everyone for helping to put Theater Hopper into the Top 10 at TWC!!!
It happened sometime over the weekend, and I am on cloud 9! You guys are too cool for words. Thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it. Let’s make sure we don’t slip down the list – be sure to vote every day!
The timing of this achievement couldn’t be better. Why? Because tomorrow is Theater Hopper’s ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!
The whole thing kind of snuck up on me. I kind of wish I had something planned. But now that I’ve made myself aware of it, I’ve been re-energized!
I have a giant “to-do” list for the site that I am planning on taking care of soon. It includes an advertisement system, updates to the forum and new merchandise. I’d like to do some t-shirts, but pre-orders are going to have to happen first.
Anyway, I’m just saying that after kind of plodding along for a little while, I’ve got another shot of juice to keep me going.
Thanks so much to everyone who has helped me along the way. I never really thought I would make it to one year, mostly because I abandon these kinds of projects in favor of something new.
But the interation with people has made this so rewarding and I don’t want this to stop. For the first time, I really feel like I’m doing something that is communicating with a lot of people. I love talking to you guys, sharing ideas and debating with you. It is by far the largest perk of doing this site.
Thanks again. You guys are the best.
So, Arnold Schwarzenegger is now the new governor of California. Good work, left-coasters. You’ve now supplanted Florida and that whole “hanging chad” debacle as our nations greatest embarassment.
I think voting a former Austrian bodybuilder into the highest office of your state probably wasn’t the wisest move, but it’ll make for some great late-nite fodder for the rest of us.
Some might view the Schwarzenegger election as a triumph of the openness of American politics. I view it for what it is – a big, freaky circus greased with the money of special interests who thought they could win over the worlds 5th largest economy with a little star power. Looks like their bet paid off.
In less scandalous news, Cami and I are finally getting around to seeing School of Rock tonight after work. I missed it over the weekend since I was at that convention, but I’ve heard nothing but good things.
Frankly, I don’t see how it could fail. I’m a big Jack Black fan and you know that director Richard Linklater will do it right. I’ve enjoyed all of his movies immensely.

Eagle-eyed readers may have noticed that I dropped the Frank Miller-inspired high contrast look of Sin City in a return to form for today’s comic. What can I say? You can only ride the wave for so long.
I’m a little bit O.C.D., so I had reservations about switching styles back to normal in the middle of the week. But honestly, there was nowhere else to go with it. All I really wanted to do was push the arc to the point where I could cast Jimmy as That Yellow Bastard. And now I’ve done it! It’s time to move on.
Besides, you can only go so long paying homage to another artist’s style before people say “Okay. That’s enough.”
The events in today’s comic are 50% true. Mitch ∗did∗ actually fall asleep near the end of Sin City and sheepishly admitted so. We didn’t strand him in the theater parking lot because…
