Bleh. Not everyone who expresses a negative opinion is a troll.

If that’s the comic that Scott wants to make, and he’s got the fans to sustain him doing it, then all the more power to him. Me, I miss the whimsical, more thought-out cartoons of earlier days, and which, incidentally, could make me laugh from time to time.

Dear troll,
Scott has done incredible things with his comic, and if you cannot grasp that there is more to comics than the funny last panel punch line then you are missing the point. I consider ExtraLife to be one of the deeper, more intellectual comics on the web. The fact that you don’t understand it is, in my mind, a testament to Scott’s greatness.

One of my favorite things Scott ever did with his comic was a few months back when he did the time travelling video game arc. Gems like these are what keep me coming back. Most importantly, Scott is doing this comic the way that HE wants it done, and is being true to his own style. I say kudos to you, Scott. Keep up the awesome work. And to you troll, go back under your bridge and keep your comments to yourself.

Not every comic has to have a punchline or cater to everyone’s personal taste. If a couple of aimless comics allows someone to stretch their brain a bit and quiet the raging muse in the mind, so be it. It helps clear the brain for future endeavors.

What a waste of time, even considering this is the Internet.

I’ve been thinking of unsubscribing from the ExtraLife RSS feed for a while… The flea story is just another example of how pointless and unfunny it has become. Experience Points has firmly jumped the shark ever since every other joke is a duck joke.

Keep up the good work on the EL podcast… I still love every second of it.

EDIT BY SCOTT: Yikes…pretty harsh, even considering this is the internet. Sorry you feel that way. Couple things: I’m gonna draw what I want, when I want, so there’s that. Secondly, If anything, Experience Points has jumped the Duck, not the Shark.

But please, in future, please come to sites you, in theory, no longer read, and take time to post a flame-worthy comment. it’s appreciated.

I thought the joke was that they reached the flea collar and they died. At least that would have sort of been funnier than.. nothing.
