at the comic story the guys were like I hate that show you I do have a life you know! And im thinking no no you dont

Nobody's judging anybody -- it's the irony of the gang making fun of the Big Bang Theory when they're a motley group, that's all.

Dude big bang theory is awesome... its not talking about comic book geeks...its about people who are social misfits. And hey if u have a problem with it stop watching!

No need for the back and forth, guys. Besides which, I LOVE the Big Bang Theory. Next to The Odd Couple (yes, I'm dating myself) it's my favorite sitcom ever.

Thanks, InstigatorGIRL. I'm hopeful that people will enjoy the strip as it goes on.

EdGross - 3/7/2010, 6:58 PM
No need to whisper. You're among friends here.

hahahaha ED@! Poignant, ironic and veeeery funny!

Big Bang Theory is a riot! The 3 leads are very good!

But yes, ANYL@, it's unfortunate how some folks try
to peg people into categories when people are way
more complex than that!

I'm a college graduate, loudspeaker designer-
manufacturer, commercial artist with a degree,
architect with a degree, trained writer/scriptwriter,
songwriter and musician (play bass guitar and steel
guitar) and played for a short while in minor
league football.

I also was a general construction contractor and a
bodyguard-bouncer.

When I was in High School some people thought it was
odd that I was a Jock and played on the Basketball
and Football teams but still was in the chess club,
the poetry club and drama club. I looked like a Jock
(6'6" 270 lbs. and worked-out) but half of me is
what everybody else in school called a GEEK & NERD!
So I know where you're coming from ANYL@!

It's stupid to shove people into categories but it
works for TV sitcoms! lol

Hi guys,
I'm a brand new member to this community, but however by no means a newbie to comics. I have been reading this site for a few months now, and this discussion made me want to join in. I can entirely relate to the stereotypes or "labels" that people unfortunately place on people. I also think that the mass media placing this label on comics/and comic-related movies is what has kept comic books from being regarded as a serious form of literature. Now obviously there is some genuine crap and stuff for kids, but to me that is no different from the situation with books. And I am certainly not attacking books, it just drives me crazy when I mention to a co-worker what I am reading, and when it happens to be a comic I get an indifferent reaction. Any thoughts on this?

Awesome strip, Ed!!! ;)

Dudes. Can anyone of you go up to the top of the thread, read every damn comment and actually [frick]ing compute why Anil seems to have a whole sandcastle in his vagina??? Cause honestly... where the [frick] was all that even called for??? Dude sounds like a dude that just came out of his closet with a torch and a pitch fork in hand saying that being gay doesn't necessarily make the dude a bitch.

Relaaaaaaaax guy, we all like you, no need for this shit. We cool bra, we cool ;))

Hey guys,

I am new here as well and thought this strip was really funny. I really dig that show and always enjoy it when comic book references are made. I especially liked one episode where sheldon tried to talk to a comic book store owner about who would make the better Batman replacement, Jason Todd or Dick Grayson. I just got finished having that discussion with a friend when that episode aired....only it was Dick Grayson and Tim Drake because Jason Todd is douche....

@Anil......man, you need to relax and not get your pussy a$$ feelings hurt so easy. Seems like everyone likes you and no need to get so defensive

Here's a question, who gives a f*** what anyone thinks of anyone? So someone calls me a geek. So what? The sun still rises tomorrow. Who cares if anyone stereotypes you in this regard. We are who we are, and if someone has a problem they can play a game of hide and go f*** themselves.
Shaman - 3/8/2010, 11:28 AM
I like to hide and [frick] myself.
EdGross - 3/8/2010, 11:34 AM
I actually thought that was pretty clever, too.

with you @NEWBLACKROBIN - DEADSHOT is a glorified sniper lol 640-553(yes i know he has more to offer but in the end thats really what NOLAN would have HIM be not with the costume and all plus 70-432 may have shown up aalongside CATWOMAN back in the day but he was also already in GOTHAM KNIGHTS so if he is IN this film,220-702 it makes GOTHAM KNIGHTS useless crap!)

642-436
