Cameo-ish thing on Shortpacked

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

Cameo-ish thing on Shortpacked

Not sure if it's supposed to be a jab exactly, but I found it amusing. And nobody seems to have pointed it out yet, so here we go:

Okay, okay. I'll stop accusing you of having class. But I WILL argue that I thought it was funny as hell. :)

And I will support said arguement.

I don't get "toy fandom". I suck.


The part I did get was funny though. :)

The joke is that it's two of Willis' characters drawn as Greg might do so. And yet two years in the future, said character is still bitching about toy fandom, as he has often done in previous strips.

You'd have to go back in the wee time where Willis had a comic about himself.

Therein, you'd understand. Somehow I do.

Shortpacked is quite a cool comic - especiall with the store story lines and the transformer. I'm going to have to catch up on Willis' comic.
