First things first: there may, theoretically, be a new "Web Comics Roundup" shortly, which you should probably read.

...unless, of course, Alex doesn't write it, in which case you probably shouldn't read it. Because that would be impossible. In fact, if you succeeded in reading an article that was never written, you would probably destroy the space time continuum or something.

Speaking of which, I have been informed by one of my colleages that, apparently, there is somebody lurking about town who looks exactly like me. Not only that, but he has a full-time cashier job at the Barnes and Noble, and I'm told that he dresses like a banker from the 1930's, complete with a pocket watch, suspenders, and stylish bowler derby.

Naturally, I am insanely jealous. I suspect that this fellow... hereby referred to as "Shojua Eekne," is an alternate-reality version of myself, possibly from one of the 1930's gangster dimensions. I have made it my goal to hunt down this "Shoj" and engage him in a battle to the death. Once I am victoriuos, I will take his bowler derby and absorb all of his super-human gangster-related powers!

MWAHAHAHAHAA!!!
