I got a letter from a ‘fan’ telling me how “Doctor- ‘omg u has cancer’ jokes are lame” – I say fan, I guess the tone and profanity suggests otherwise, but I like to pretend I have fans. But just to show I can take a hint, and even joke about myself, voila, today’s comic.

For those of you that have been following me on Twitter (you should, it’s cool) you’ll know that I have been serious issues with my computer, largely due to failing hard drives, I have actually pretty much had to start from scratch, the only things left over are the peripherals and the computer case. That meant transferring lots of files, installing lots of programs. The good news is, I’ve pretty much got most of what I need transferred, in total terms I lost about 10% of the files, but most of it was replaceable. The bad news is, for some reason, I can’t install Adobe CS3, the program I use to make the comicy goodness. I have tried several times today to get it working, but to no avail. So, a day late, I present you with a half finished comic. I drew it last week whilst a friend and I had some spare time, I like the joke, but the art is a copy and paste job, sorry about that. But it’s the best I can offer ye. God only knows what I’ll do for tomorrows comic, probably install GIMP or something for a one off.

This also explains why I might not have replied to your comment, email, or in the forums. I’ll try to get on to that ASAP, but what with the upgrade the coursework, the dissertation, the getting ready to go back to university, it probably won’t happen till this weekend.
