demiurgentI've snarked some new strips this week. (I'm making an effort to hit strips I've been reading -- or recently been pointed to -- on Snark of late. Just... well, because I'm in that mood.)
I just did ones for Anywhere but Here, the Green Avenger and Candi. And they went over well.
As it turns out, they're all on Comic Genesis. Which has nothing to do with why they came up. ABH I was pointed too recently and I devoured it. Abby's comic I've been reading... well, for a while. It was a matter of time. Candi was more recent than Green Avenger, but it's also regular.
I admit, when I realized Candi was also Comic Genesis, I alluded to it in the subject line of the post.
I've now received my first piece of angry e-mail about doing it. To whit:

I have to admit -- I really, really love the HAH. It takes class to throw in a HAH.

This email is a desperate cry for medication.
