Ding!




Thus begins the new storyline! Woot!

For now, please forgive my lack of "depth" in the colorin'. I'm toyin' around with some new ideas style-wise and it might take me a few trys to get it right. So, you should simply revel in the fact that I actually got this puppy done!

The reason behind its extreme lateness is the fact that I was stumped on how to render my original idea for this strip. However, my muse (the most wonderful woman on this planet or any other, near as I can tell) and I were discussin' the strip and she had the idea to change it from Ray lookin' at both his bills and a gaming mag and then puttin' two and two together to him checkin' the mail and complainin' on the phone about said bills and gettin' the mag. The idea for the new sponsorship for a Professional Gaming Team was the original drivin' force behind this story, so it all fit together pretty nicely.

So, Sarah, I'd like to dedicate this strip to you. Thank you for helpin' me get started again.

The rest of you? What the hell, guys?! Sheesh!

Anyway, enjoy, all! Later!

Frag Away, Guys...Frag Away...

From this point on, all the strips featured in this blog with be from the above cover's storyline. Can I put together a professional gaming team and will we be good enough to earn the $10,000
sponsorship? Stay tuned (or, y'know, keep refreshin' the page) for Only a Geek: Fragging to Fame and Fortune.

Consti-dated

I came up with that insult a long time ago and, in Pete's deffense it wasn't used on him originally. However, I like pickin' on Pete (he gets his kicks in, too, y'know) and I just thought he'd look funny with a huge red handprint on his face. Guess what, Pete? I was right...heh.

Jail Bait

It happened on the way to our cars after work one night...but this conversation did happen.

CosPlay

This was actually just an idea I had. If Shaun was asked to dress like his favorite videogame, this is what he'd come up with. What can I say...the man loves Pong.

Work Woes

This one's pretty self-explanitory. For the love of all that is Holy, please do not point out that Nolan's right shoulder is horribly dislocated. :D

I Am a God


This was the first OaG done in the current "style". The joke is an actual conversation between myself and Nolan. It happened in a GameStop; I was buyin' a game and Nolan was checkin' out the display box for Oblivion. Nolan has since bought and thuroughly defeated the game itself and all but the Shimmering Isles.

Jest to Get Us Started


'ello! The main goal of doin' this blog is to have a specific page for Only a Geek: Fragging to Fame and Fortune. However, I'm not quite finished with the first in that story arc and, thus, have decided to post a few of the older OaG's to keep you guys busy for a bit. Y'know...if you haven't already read them and hate them. Heh... Enjoy.
