Hey people! LocalYokel here. I spend my days running background checks on people and performing various research tasks. I am very good at what I do. My employers think I am omniscient and that my work takes enormous amounts of effort and skill... so naturally I have lots of time to look at webcomics!

Also a big fan of Girl Genius, Sinfest, Two Lumps, and xkcd.

Long time lurker, giving in at last.

I'm a native Angeleno, but I grew up in New York. I hacked around with comics when I was younger, but I have since found other ways of starving to death. My childhood and youthful comic influences include Mad magazine (when it was GOOD, remember?), Peanuts, Pogo, DC war comics, The Spirit, Asterix, Tintin, Andy Capp, Herblock, BC, Classic Comics Illustrated. I never dug superheroes (or heroines, strangely); grownups running around in their underwear just seemed silly to me then. I don't see much I like out there now, but I'm a very big Love & Rockets fan.

I don't care for any of the other webcomics I've seen, mainly because most of them are badly drawn. This is a blessed exception, and I guess that's why I'm hooked. I haven't seen such hilarious expressions on character's faces in many years. Thanks Giz, keep up the good work. (PS: any chance for a crossover guest shot by Hopey Glass in this strip? She and Zii would get along like a house afire.)

I like the artwork for all three strips and like the Menage a 3 story so far. I'm an Eagle Scout AND proud member #273 of The Vanity Club :-) http://www.vanityclub.com/ So there, BSA!

Let's see. Where to begin?

My name is Brandon. I'm 31 years old. I live in Carrollton, Georgia (41 miles SW of Atlanta). I'm a fan of webcomics, y'know the USUAL suspects: Something Positive, Two Lumps, Least I Could Do, Theater Hopper, Joe Loves Crappy Movies, etc. Imagine my shock when I stumbled upon this absolutely wonderful comic. Never thought I'd ever find another webcomic that I looked forward to reading as much as I did Krazy Krow's (now-defunct) Krakow...but hey I did!

More about me? Aw shucks, I'm flattered that you'd ask!

I like movies, good anime (I've recently discovered the Godliness that is Appleseed Ex Machina), video games, reading, DC comics, pro wrestling, heavy metal, dogs, history and watching TV. I LOVE historical documentaries, Futurama, Family Guy, Reba, X-Files, etc. I live with my crippled aunt because she needs someone to look after her...and I guess I'm elected huh? Re: I'm a 30 something pop culture nerd who likes anime, video games, comic books, movies and TV. If you haven't yet run screaming into the night...congrats, you are a cool person (No matter what anyone may say, so called normal people can be "pricks").

Gisele, thanks so much for starting up this comic. I've been a fan since like the third strip and I'm hopelessly hooked. What can I say? Menage A 3 is a masterpiece!

:D

Kid Kool (1988) for the Nintendo Entertainment System is GROSSLY underrated. Sure the concept could've been presented a little better, but it doesn't deserve the hate it gets in some circles.

Boring. All the best heavy metal concerts pass it by because Atlanta's known for having a crooked promoter that once tried to rip off Ozzy Osbourne.

Related by a stretch, but I used to play D&D with a metalhead from Atlanta. According to him, there were a decent amount of gigs back in his day, though, he was orientated towards the more extreme styles.

I didn't say "none". Just a lot pass though.

Okay, I might as well.
My name is Anthony, I am 16, and am a budding novelist. Right now, I have no job and am not in a relationship, but I don't really mind.
I am working hard in school, and I hope to get into a good college. The internet is the only thing that keeps me sane.
I am a caffeine addict, my favorite source of caffeine being Monster, and I have no plans on ever breaking the habit.
I like classic rock and metal, good manga, and sleeping.

Might as well introduce myself...

I'm semifamous... literally. Had a somewhat popular online celebrity gossip column in the 90s, then went to work for 6 years as an editor with a major movie site, but mostly because a joke I wrote 11 years ago has become an urban legend and still circulates around the Internet.

My artistic skills are rudimentary....

I'm gonna be forty, and not in some far distant time, but real soon like. Have a toddler-age son, another son due to be born about a month after I turn 40, and somehow I found and married a cheerleader with a deep inner geek who likes all the geeky stuff I do.

I write, program, and do mediocre art.

And that's me.
