Yay for esoteric nerd revenge!
I have to say I'm liking the intermission even more than the main comic, which is saying a lot since I pretty much added it to my favorites the second I followed the link from Penny Arcade (yes...I'm one of THOSE readers). The concpet of a sub-culture that builds its entire existence around truth, and your depiction of it, is very mentally tantilizing. i've often wondered what my life would be like if all the little white lies that I deemed necessary had never come out of my mouth, and I always come back to the conclusion that if they hadn't, I and the people I'd lied to would be the worse off.
We're taught that honesty is the best policy, and 90% of the time, that's true, but we're also told that ognorance is bliss, and 50% of the time, THAT' true. The trick is deciding what to do in 40% where they interact.
But yes, as soon as we get something new from the main story I'll be very happy. What the hell is Ben up to? Right, right, I gotta wait and read, but take my impatience as a compliment.
You are an inspiration to a student at the Savannah College of Art and Design who is majoring in Sequential Art. If anything ever bogs you down while writing this comic, I hope that will serve as some happiness. You're part of what keeps me writing comics.
Stay cool down there in Templar.

Ah, I see somebody else has read and memorized "101 Anime Streotypes: Things that just happen, or that will."

Hey, I came over here from that Something*Positive ad and you made me spend my entire evening reading the whole thing from the beginning when I should have been doing homework!
Seriously, this has got to be one of the most innovative, beautiful comics I've ever read. Kudos to you!

Thank you, Alan and Stuart! Because of those comments, I'm gonna skip sleep tonight and get to work on the next page of comics. You guys lit a fire under my ass.
And psychomelody: Yeah, I've watch more "Project A-Ko " than I'll ever really feel comfortable admitting to.

This was, in its entirety: a beautiful depiction of an alternative lifestyle; an exacting definition of poetic justice; and a very solid and convincing reason why people generally prefer people not to be honest with them. Congratulations.

This intermission has been interesting, and I liked it. If there's ever another intermission, I would completely love to see something about the Wickerheads. As far as subcultures go in this comic, so far they are something of a fascinating mystery to me. I'd love to see more of them if ever there was another intermission, though I wouldn't know how that would work, because they don't say anything. It'd still be really cool.
Keep up the awesome work, this is one of my favorite web-comics (great setting, intriguin characters, sweet plot). Thank you for this continuously growing body of work. ^_^

Wow.
I don't remember how I found this place, but I just skipped back to the beginning and read it through. I found a detailed, tantalizing world described in the most elegant of manners, characters sympathetic and potent, bizarre and believable. I don't have the vocabulary to talk about the artwork, but it's simply wonderful.
I had no right to expect this to be this good -- I'm impressed.
