Knee: That's a grand gesture, Itchy! Are you going to have yourself frozen? Or preserved in formalin?
Itchy: [Standing underneath the T. Rex skeleton] Actually, I was hoping to be fossilised.
Gosh, it’s been a long time. I’ve forgotten how to do all these little steps, so I hope it all comes out in the end.
Google tells me that the email subscription service is (or has already?) come to an end, so if that’s the way you subscribed so far it won’t work in the future. RSS should still work, and for example I use feedly.com for reading content like that.
Poor Itchy. Locked down; and days until the shopping arrives.
I think the normally even-tempered, long-suffering Knee is starting to show signs of stress, cooped up with Itchy all day.
Wishing you all good health.
There’s no joke here, I just thought that Itchy and Knee deserved to have a bit of enjoyment now and then. And the idea of their round heads in round space helmets was irresistible.

Today’s comic stars a very young Itchy. Maybe this is how he became the way he is…
Before you say anything, this cartoon passed my primary test filter. Which is: to make Karen laugh.
I don’t remember drawing Itchy with such an open smile before. I didn’t know he could!
Another interesting talk at the Oxford Skeptics in the Pub meeting — Mark Lynas is an eco-activist who came to the conclusion that GMO is not necessarily bad, and that Organic isn’t necessarily good, using the power of critical thinking. One interesting point he made is that the degree of scientific consensus supporting GMO safety is roughly the same as that supporting climate change. So if you think critically you have to accept both (or possibly neither?)
Itchy may not know much about art, but we know what he’s like.
Knee’s Picasso is the “black jug and skull” (1946).
