In another disturbing example of how the Hulk Hands have taken a toe-hold (thumb-hold?) in popular culture, Neo-Raven from the forums posted a link to a recent NWA:TNA Wrestling contest where the phony forearms were used.

First things first. TODAY IS YOUR LAST DAY TO PRE-ORDER APPAREL! If you want to pre-order a shirt, baby doll or hoodie – MIDNIGHT TONIGHT IS THE DEADLINE! After that, I send the artwork and the order into the printer and we go about the task of getting you your shirts.
Orders have been strong, but if we can make one, final push, it will position me closer toward my goal of having a standing inventory from which I can send you the shirts directly upon receipt instead of having to arrange a pre-order and making you guys wait.
Many thanks to those of who have purchased shirts already. I appreciate your support! Hopefully in the future I will be able to maintain the store more long-term than opening and closing it based off inventory.
Now, regarding that pesky web comic!…
I felt kind of bad of making you guys wait for the punch line that should have rightly been included in Friday’s comic. So today I’ve treated you to twice the tattoo action for one low price!
I’m pretty happy with how this arc turned out – especially revealing that Judge Cann is a Star Wars nerd. People wondered why he wouldn’t understand the reference Tom made to his name back on May 9. All along it was because he was a Star Wars nerd and not a Star Trek nerd! See how it all comes together?!
At any rate, while the “nerd justice” storyline has concluded, I plan on talking about Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith for a good long while, so buckle up for that. Clearly, there is a lot of content to mine out of what will probably be the biggest blockbuster this year. Can you believe it’ll actually be in theaters in less than 3 days?
Jared and I went to Iowa’s largest non-Imax theater this weekend to purchase tickets in an advanced pre-sale for the midnight showing of Episode III this weekend. I didn’t want to see this movie in some generic multiplex. I wanted an honest-to-goodness MOVIE experience.
This theater is great. It doesn’t share screens, there’s only the one and it’s huge. The auditorium seats 800 and there’s not a bad seat in the house. At this point in history, it’s almost a throwback!
Makes me kind of sad that there aren’t more big screens like this anymore. There really should be. Don’t you think people would pay MORE for an honest movie-going experience? You’d think with the rise of DVD and satellite televisions, theaters would make a return to form and create an immersive experience. What about those old movie houses in the 50’s that had those great themes? Jungle movie house! Egyptian movie house! There’s an audience for this kind of thing, I swear. If I had the money to put behind an idea like this, I totally would.
Anyway, Wednesday night Jared and I are going to stand in line after work with our reserved ticket and tough it out with our nerd brethren for the last midnight showing I will likely subject myself to for a long time. Honestly, there isn’t another franchise that I can think of where I would do the same thing. It’s going to be a real treat to sit in a theater with 800 other people and know we’re all like-minded and ready to devote our whole attention to whatever flashes across the screen.
When you think about it, that’s what the movie-going experience SHOULD be. But instead you get cell-phones and crying babies and a girls volleyball team sitting behind you giggling like idiots for two hours. No respect at all. But when the lights go down on Episode III, I know the 800 of us are leaving all that disrespect at the door.
It occured to me that Jimmy needed some kind of souvenir from his wilder days – and not something easily faked – because even though we know modern day Jimmy as forthright and kind, there needed to be some evidence to back up his claims as a womanizer. A poorly thought through series of tattoos seemed like the appropriate solution.
I imagine a lot of women will probably look at this comic and be really, really turned off by the idea of a guy sporting a sleeve of crossed out names permanently etched into his arm. But there’s something to be said about the appeal of a bad boy, too, right? Oh! But who could hope to tame him?
There’s not much more for me to talk about today and I feel conspicuous cutting today’s blog short. But at the same time, I stayed up WAY too late last night working on the comic after my night class and I’m pretty sure my eyes are focusing in two different directions.
So enjoy the comic and be sure to come back bright and early on Friday for another BIG REVEAL from Jimmy’s sorrid past! Wanna take a guess as to what the big reveal might be? Leave your comments and we’ll see who is right!
