How would I go about getting permission to print a comic and posting it on my dorm room door?
Can I just ask Simpson on this forum?
Getting permission
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.
Math is NEVER overrated. Math is the key to upholding the modern world.
It takes language to build a society, but math and science to build a world.

Re: Getting permission
Yeah, I'd say you can just do it without asking permission.How would I go about getting permission to print a comic and posting it on my dorm room door?

What you want to do is personal use, so you could probably even crop the bottom copyright, comic name, and website url off if you wanted to. But of course, I myself wouldn't, out of respect and so people could easily find more if they liked the strip.
Now if you wanted to do something more along the lines of put a strip or a piece of one in a poster to promote an event, you'd have to get permission (I'd probably send a PDF of the poster and ask if he approved
). If you go farther and make money off of it.... well that's a bit of a no-no, unless it's clear the majority of the effort was yours and the O&M character or strip just fits in perfectly, as a little afterthought. Even then DCS should probably be compensated with a little something.

If they didn't, then I'd be in a lot of trouble by nowArtists like when you do that, in fact.

Now, do these same courtesy rules apply for posting O&M strips on other people’s doors?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows: –
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." – The City's gone, –
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.
We wonder, – and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragments huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
--Horace Smith.
