The character in this strip was Armaan’s artistic interpretation of a fairly regular customer who would come into the store wearing—I kid you not—tin foil wrist bands and helmet, and a toy (?) ray-gun. He liked to talk about Star Trek tech as if it were real, and his trips to the mall seemed to be focused on finding parts to repair his spaceship. I miss him.

In case you missed the other two links to today’s strip, here’s another one. Ah, Pokemon cards. Never before has such worthless crap been purchased in such ridiculous quantities. I have nothing against card games, I was once a hardcore MTG player. But Pokemon is such a bastardization of the trading card game genre that I will take any opportunity to ridicule it. And so I did.Week one was fun, I can’t wait to do it again.
