Weird...

So, I was looking at my analytics stuff for the main Zamo the Destroyer site and saw this:



Uh, was that a joke, or are there really people who type "cool cults to join" into Google? And if there really are such people, is it because they previously saw my site and remember the page where Zamo's trying to recruit into her cult and that's why they typed it that way, or is it that they're really sitting there thinking, "y'know, I should join a cult. That would be a fun thing to do with my weekends... maybe shave my head, hang out at airports, give up my life savings..."

Three times over the last month.

Oh well, hits are hits, I guess. Hope they enjoyed the comics either way.

I await emails on what particular shade of lime green is the correct one to dye one's mandatory spiky green mohawk and whether Zamo prefers the flowing green robes be made of a high-quality silk fabric or if cheap and crappy polyester will suffice.

Zamo's Lament

Yup, Zamo's pissed that there wasn't a comic last week. And she gives you a bit of my excuse as to why (the little bit she might have accidentally listened to while doing what most iguanas would do in such a situation: shunning the offending human).

Whatsisface is actually Dave "Rave" Ogilvie, but I guess if anyone cared to Google the Nearly Famous Music Festival mentioned on my t-shirt in the comic and look at their MySpace page blog about workshops they would figure that one out for themselves. I also attended Jeff Dawson's seminar and both were quite informative and fun.

So, that would mean "Nude Photo Guy" is Nivek Ogre from Skinny Puppy and ohGr. And it's true: I do have a nude photo of him as my laptop's primary desktop image (which is quickly swapped out for a plain black background when I have to hook my laptop up to the projector to present something in one of my classes.)

Of course, Zamo calls him whatsisface because she wasn't listening, but the reality is I probably listen to more of Rave's work than Ogre's.

And yeah, I realize there's a bit of a continuity issue where last month Zamo was stoked about seeing Ogre in concert and this week Zamo refers to him as just "Nude Photo Guy" as if she's never heard of him - oh well. Such is the iguanid attention span.

Zamo's Lament

In news that might appease Zamo, I already have tomorrow's comic drawn and ready to go. And I have the script for next week's ready, too.

About the Election

So, this week Wilhelm tries to bait Zamo into giving an opinion on the recent election in the States, but the response isn't quite what Wilhelm expected.

Turns out Zamo can't be bothered to be racist, having jumped right up to being speciesist.
