Don't take this strip too seriously - no way would any self-respecting Apple fan trade their baby for a black iPhone 4S.

Remember how a few weeks back I talked about the "two-person-talky-panel" (to use the technical term) that crops up in most gaming webcomics so the writer can explain the joke to filthy, non-gaming laypersons? Well this is the alternative. The "caption-which-explains-shit" (again, technical term, write this down) is a mainstay of British newspaper comics. Without these little tidbits explaining the context, eventually even the best strips from seriously top-tier cartoonists begin to resemble maddening fever-dreams.

So we're going to experiment with this format a little bit. We're about to embark on a more-involved storyline featuring Erin, and I don't want to mess with that continuity by having her occasionally transform into a walking, talking opinion-stick that I use to bludgeon people who disagree with my point of view.

In other news, Cory will be taking a holiday the week after next, so I'll be working with a guest artist or two. We'll (probably) be running a small competition to pick the artist(s) and it'll (probably) be paid work. More on this next Tuesday.

As always you can follow Cory and Grey on Twitter and see more of their work on their Tumblr.
