    I agree, with one possible exception: People will go to stupid lengths to keep their feet from getting wet!

      If your feet are wet enough it can be pretty uncomfortable.

      It's raining here and I have holes in my shoes. That's my excuse for missing class. I agree with you both.

    Well, in a boxing match or something you'd wanna keep your nads safe.

    "Quick! Protect yer nipples!"

    I know what I'm doing next time I end up in a car crash…

    Also, I love the first panel. "Bucket o' Razor Blades" … Nice.

    It's called a welding hood. I know, I was a welder for many a year. It's not a mask, not a helmet. It's a hood.

    And some of 'em are downright sexy.

    …

    whoops! did I say that outloud?

      If it's covering the top of your head I would consider it a hood but technically in this strip what they have are masks.

      All my strips are penciled and inked on paper, which are then scanned in. The 'ol fashioned way.

    Love it! I noticed you're writing style is kind of like an essay applied to comics. Pannel1:Main idea, P2:First point and example, P3: Second Point, example, P4: Final point and example. I think it's very cool and crafty, is that kind of how you you blue print them or am I way off with the essay thing? Either way great comic everyday!

      I just write them as if I was talking to a friend and trying to make him laugh. They usually end up in the essay style that you mentioned.

      I think the reason why we all haven't done panel 4 is because we'd waste waay too much time stomping around saying "Klaatu barada nikto"

    I disagree. I think that, at least for guys, the junk is an oft-protected body part.

    The reason we cover our faces is instinct. We cover them because they harbor our eyes and our brain.

    You should protect your nipples. They are very sensitive.

    Unless you already got in a car crash and had to get your nipples replaced with cyborg nipples.

    For the welder’s mask, you could either go the “Dead Space” route and add some vents or just work off the Chzo Mythos.
