People's Journal: FAQ.

From left to right: Andy, Fnord, Epsilon, Bloodtoaster, Goomba, Inny, Ghost, Xemn, Lyll, Wendy, Megas, and Blob. Anyone left out was too busy to show up on the day when they hired the camera guy.

Inny is a young homeowner, aspiring evil villain, and a member of both the 2993 Conspiracy and Project Meme Control. The administration of both organizations thinks its funny to send their operatives to live at Inny's house.

It started as an egocentric blog way back near 2001, and migrated back and forth until 2003 when it was finally established. Initially, it was half comic, half blog. Around May of 2004, the blogging part was dropped, due to lack of interest. The "official" first comic featuring Inny and Fnord, sucked, and was part of an informal "who can draw a comic faster" competition on the IRC.

I keep a collection of stamps and backgrounds, and for each comic pull off many "copy + paste" actions. A typical issue takes between 30 minutes and an hour to produce. Inny and Fnord are the only original artwork, everything else is hopefully covered by fair-use.

Ironically, I still use real life events as the basis for a wide set of these. Of course, it's very exaggerated and jumbled up, so no one character can be compared to any living person. However, a clever eye who knows the full story can catch the elements. For instance, at the end of october and start of november (2005), I actually had to lay insulation under my house, and had joked with family members about the house getting up and running away.

Purely entertainment on my own part. If you don't get a particular joke, you can bank on it being used as a way to horrify people that I know personally. I'm revealing my schadenfreude now, because everyone involved has already figured this out on their own.

I don't keep one, because I wouldn't be able to keep up with it. However, my going rate is about eight issues a month, which would put it about every 3.875 days. I never sit on these either, so as soon as I'm done with one, it's uploaded. There's an RSS feed that automatically updates, so your best bet it to subscribe to it and check it at the end of the week.

Sure. Spread the word, vote on it, whatever you want to do. Just, bear in mind that the reputation of my comic is reflected by how annoying my fans are. That means don't irritate the hell out of people. I've had this happen to me before, where I have to take the blame for how annoying my fanboys get, even when I don't know any of them.
