And Jim typed all these words, saying . . .

I am the Jim thy North, which have brought thee into the land of Keenspace, out of the house of suckage.

Thou shalt have no other comics before yours.

Thou shalt not fail to make unto thy fans any service, or any likeness of thine characters, or the characters of others, as to be pornographic in nature. Thou shalt bow down thy female characters to them, show cleavage to them: for you the artist must be a servicing artist, visiting the nudity of thy characters upon the fans unto the third and fourth generation of them above minority age; and shewing T&A shots unto thousands of them that they shalt love you, and keep reading your comic.

Thou shalt not take the name of super-popular webcomics in vain; for the fans will not hold him guiltless that step on the toes of the entrenched.

Remember the holidays, to make festive strips for them.

Six days shalt thou labour, and make thy comic: but the seventh day is guest strip and fanart day, for thou, and thy pens, and thy paper, thy scanner, and thy art programs, and thy hard drive, and thy viruses that are within thy computer, for in the seventh day shall the fans provide guest strips and fanart, for thee, and all other manner of fanstuff, and you shall rest: wherefore the fans will greatly appreciate this, the showing of their work.

Honour thy fans and thy webhost: that thy days may be long upon the interweb which technology thy master giveth thee.

Thou shalt not spam.

Thou shalt not commit copyright infringement.

Thou shalt not plagiarize.

Thou shalt not flame thy fellow webcomic artist . . . unless they're being a real prick about something and it does seem as though a creator war wouldst raise thine own popularity.

Thou shalt not covet thy fellow artist's webhost, thou shalt not covet thy fellow artist's popularity, nor his scanner, nor his art programs, nor his hard drive, nor his ass (unless thou art a female and he is super-sexay . . . or vice versa), nor any thing that is thy fellow artist's.

Except covet his fanbase and try thou to steal members from it at every convenient happenstance.


And having typed these things, the Jim thy North did go forth and feast upon many sandwiches.

AMEN

If I start a new comic, I'll hide it.

Genesuess!? I'd really like to read that.

Speaking of Seuess, I still want a zike bike by the way.

So, this would make you a hypocrite, huh, Roland?

Nyo.
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

The Jim has not yet updated his writing for a new world mindset to embrace the hot lesbian and man-lovin' action. Don't worry, however . . . it should only take a couple thousand years to get up to speed with all the latest societal advances. ;)
