Webcomics update for 11/14/08
Time for the new installment of Steven Weissman's in-progress pages from "Blue Jay," an epic 32-page story from Chocolate Cheeks, the next collection of the Yikes! gang's adventures. In this week's episode: getting to the bottom of things by climbing to the top. (Note: last week's page is also still up, since we had to update the page yesterday for scheduling reasons.) This is also a great time to catch up on our current 5-day chunk of Martin Kellerman's Rocky, updated Monday-Friday! As a reminder, registration is no longer required to read our webcomics; they're free for all!

World Peace Hulk
James Kochalka couldn't have done it better. Hard to believe this gentle soul would be waging war against the world a mere 28 years later.

Oh, and NEVER accuse the Defenders of being intolerant.
