Any time I can make a Jafar reference, it’s a good day. This was a very simple idea, but apparently things weren’t hard enough for You already and we had to ramp it up. In Going the Distance, our main character, “You,” has to manage to make his way to delicious cake. Sounds simple, right? But there are deadly spikes to deal with, and a host of other problems that appear each time. Let’s just say You fails more often than You succeeds. After all, it wouldn’t be much of a quest if You could just get cake whenever You … Continue reading Going the Distance 035: Get the Point?

So many questions. If the spikes are delicious, why is You eating the wall? What makes the cake so deadly? What makes the spikes so tasty? Why didn’t we ever do a comic where the spikes became teeth and chomped on our hero? We may never know the answers to any of these. In Going the Distance, our main character, “You,” has to manage to make his way to delicious cake. Sounds simple, right?

But there are deadly spikes to deal with, and a host of other problems that appear each time. Let’s just say You fails more often than You succeeds. After … Continue reading Going the Distance 033: ‘Cause I’m TNT

Lee figured that from a top-down view, the obstacle course wasn’t that hard at all. Sometimes life is just a matter of perspective. In Going the Distance, our main character, “You,” has to manage to make his way to delicious cake. Sounds simple, right? But there are deadly spikes to deal with, and a host of other problems that appear each time. Let’s just say You fails more often than You succeeds. After all, it wouldn’t be much of a quest if You could just get cake whenever You wanted, would it? For more background on the comic or info … Continue reading Going the Distance 032: Circle Circle Dot Dot

This is another example of a comic that didn’t make the cut. Unless You is Inspector Gadget or Mr. Fantastic, I’m not sure this is possible. And this comic is about reality, dammit! In Going the Distance, our main character, “You,” has to manage to make his way to delicious cake. Sounds simple, right? But there are deadly spikes to deal with, and a host of other problems that appear each time. Let’s just say You fails more often than You succeeds.
