If you always wondered what happens during our delays, this pretty much sums it up. Kyle came up with this idea, and originally spun it talking directly about the comic being late- breaking the ‘third wall’ as it were. I wasn’t sure how that was going to relate to the Backspace universe so i tweaked it just a tad bit avoiding the subject, but keeping the premise intact. You can still see the ‘Backspace mug’ here and Kyle and Casey are wearing different shirts. I thought this was pretty funny- it comes from the film “Let The Right One In” which is some foreign vampire flick (i think) but i can let Kyle talk about that more here. I really like the joke setup where the vampire basically tricks Kyle into inviting him in, and it’s totally something Kyle would do on accident. heh heh. – Jeremy
Heh I love this. Having my character being the one calling Kyle actually stems back to out college days when I was director of the comedy troop Friday Night Live. I was pretty much known as a hard ass that most people didn’t like. I only did it because I took pride in our shows. Well I guess the same thing is starting to happen with Backspace. I just hope I am not quite as bad this time around. Am I Kyle? Anyway enjoy!
I think the Transformers logo on your t-shirt kinda looks like your characters face. Doesn’t it? I just noticed the bite taken out of the Apple logo too- heh heh. The way this comic reads it’s almost like Kyle has a vampire stake handy for situations like this, as if this kind of thing happens like every couple weeks lol. The fact that he has the time to turn the vampire’s skull into a drinking mug just exudes the time wasting factor here
I wonder what bone the handle was made out of?
I have to fix that tail on the word bubble in panel 3… grr….
While your fixing things is there anyway to make the comments automatically show instead of peeps having to click “comments”?
By the way, to those who are readers of the comic… LEAVE SOME COMMENTS M’er F’ers
I looked around for a plugin for that and the setting and couldn’t find anything to autoshow comments…. search engines turned up zip on the topic too. :p
Love this one. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Alex, glad you enjoy!
I enjoy backspace but not that Casey guy. He reminders me of an NHL Flier fan. I think you can do better. p.s. Who does the coloring, very poor!
(;^}
Just kidding. I enjoy BACKSPACE and think you all are very talented. I even have a MANCRUSH on Casey. <3 p.s. Do you sell bobblehead dolls?
Ha ha, speaking of not liking people there is this guy I work with (Tlaw) who is a real twink. All he does is talk about how he wants to make sweet sweet love to the Dallas Cowboys, not the cheerleader, the cowboys themselves. Thanks for the comment!
I couldn’t think of any reason for anyone to buy an ‘ipad’ other than sheer laziness. Like, if you can’t crack open your laptop to surf the web kind of deal. If it had a built in camera, and ran OSX- definitely. We’d use it to illustrate and color the comic, but as is it’s a giant iphone. Apple FAIL.
“I haven’t slept since the last harvest moon”
Jerm’s my granny loves gramp’s (I PISSED AGAIN DEAR) “ipad’s” because now when gramps wets himself while napping on the sofa it does not soak through.
p.s. Could be harvest mite’s (chigger’s) keeping you up.
@ Tlaw, i think there’s an app for that!
HAPPY belated 50th BIRTHDAY to my DALLAS COWBOYS! 01/28/60

We need to shy away from the football stuff. Jeremy is a Buffalo Bills fan after all and I don’t want to hurt his feelings.
It isn’t easy being a Buffalo Bills fan… but even Bills fans feel sorry for Detroit Lions fans. So the real question here is how do Detroit Lions fans get up in the morning?
They thank God they are not a Cleveland Browns fan! Bree, rump, bump!
The real ? is. How much tweating could Tweaky Bird tweat, if Tweaky Bird could tweat, tweat?
I should ask why is the picture of me either a head less snowman or a faceless snowman with no lower body?
Or should I try to be cool and say my AVATAR?
LMAO @ Casey- that was an awesome update.
Well Mr. Lumbra or Mr. Crossyourheartbra I dont care for your excuses. You have one job to do, do it! Or maybe a phone call to the Phantom’s is needed, if you know what I mean?
Is it mid-week yet? UPDATE: Feb. 1st 2010 look for it later in the week, maybe midweek. What is the 5th on the month if not mid-week? Backspace is about to get some backlash if Casey does not get back to his job! Have a nice weekend.
hey now, is this really necessary? how’s about some good old mohammed cartoons? you know the kind! or maybe…. the mohammed bumper sticker, “honk once if you love mohammed; honk twice if you want my suicide car-bomb to go off.” or….that classic knock-knock, “knonk-knock! who’s there? idontgottalottacash. idontgottalottacash-who? allah,bless you!” damn, they don’t write ‘em like that anymore(praise allah!)
