The lesson is 'take two steps back'. That would have worked our surprisingly well if he could just peg the distance properly.

Slapstick has just never been my forte. In the early going I was trying all sorts of things, in the interest of finding out exactly that sort of thing.

Still, in the center right panel, there's a bit of a social comment, which was more my thing: in the 1990s, there was a lot of that kind of thinking. There was a prevailing attitude that technology was not neutral, but 100% positive in all cases. In particular, people in my own field were insisting that comic strips that featured a lot of technological bells and whistles were inherently superior to strips with a more traditional format like this one.

Well, guys, guess who's still here?
Um, not you? Ozy and Millie, ended. I Drew This, canceled. Raine Dog, assumed hiatus'd. Girly, unknown and mostly recycled Ozy and Millie jokes anyway.

Girl is going to be released in the traditional comics format - newspapers. It'll have a website too, but then all comics have those now.

Way to clarify that unknown status there, you. Way to open the box and find the metaphorical cat isn't dead. Way to be.
