I was reading the last weeks worth of comics, and I noticed some people having issues with the ad.
This raised a different question for me, which I’m hoping someone can answer.
Does AdBlock+ have any affect on page views for ads? I’m not really familar with the whole tech side of them, but my understanding is that the publisher pays Adam every page view, or a certain amount of page views.
I’m only asking because I would gladly disable it for this site to help support it if it does affect it at all.
That comment was hardly long, and to answer his question, it depends on the agreement between the advertiser and Adam, could be number of views to number of people who click the view. I could be wrong since I’m a teenager.
Oh. My. God. It’s… it’s… The GLAIVE!!! I think I’m gonna cry.
I’d hoped and prayed you’d reference Krull some day. INSTANT favorite.
Also, I had to go back and double check Mon and Tue for Odyssey themeness. How bout random nonsense 2 days followed by 3 days of highly focused nonsense?
We saw Krull back in the days when people went to movie theaters. The hero’s men were getting killed like flies all around him, and when he met the biggest badass monster, and FINALLY pulled out his magic weapon, somebody behind us said, “‘Bout damn time.” That was the highlight of the movie for us.
Ha! But I thought Colywyn didn’t use the Glaive because Ynyr specifically warned him not to:
Ynyr: Do not use it until you need it.
Prince Colwyn: How will I know when?
Ynyr: You’ll know.
Although that didn’t seem to be a problem for the arcade game: youtu.be/QDxw1z42lYY (which I thought was hard as BALLS to play back then).
Man, there were so many awesome quotes from that movie: imdb.com/title/tt0085811/quotes I think it’s very underrated. It was decent considering its $27M budget (beweeen the $15M of the previous year’s Dark Crystal and the $40M for Dune the following year)
When they remake it (and you just know they will), they’ll have to split it up into at least 2 or 3 flicks they packed so much stuff into it. Even a cyclops -)
Panel 5 IS awesome! “Hey! C’mere!” “You got it toots”…EPIC!!
I, myself would love it if you recapped “The Princess Bride”. Or “Young Frankenstein” or…heck anything you want!
Awesome comic as always! Keep up the good work, keep us in stitches!
Thanks again, Adam. You do, truly…rawk!
I know the Odyssey quite well due to being a literature nerd, and I actually sat there for a second thinking, “I don’t remember Odysseus using a ninja star…” Haha!
Discussion (42) ¬
Hurrah for Cyclops bug!
Booh for misrepresenting classic Greek mythology! 
Misrepresenting?!? As far as I remember the story, Adam is spot on except wasn’t the cyclops really a robot?
That’s a surprisingly good summary of the Odyssey. Cool bug should write for Sparknotes.
Definitely a win! You f’n rock Adam!
Hmm, this is funny because only a few hours ago I was looking to grab a book to reread off of my shelf and I almost grabbed The Odyssey.
HEY! C’MERE!
Omg, I laughed so hard at that!
Same. That’s just brilliant.
Oh my goodness yes. That panel all by itself is genius.
Yeah, that’s about how much it takes.
Another great strip as usual! The cyclops bug is also a nice touch!

the last panel is simply superb
Do a Twilight summary. Pretty, pretty please.
Here’s your Twilight summary!

spot on
Thats actually better than the original
I concur, since I have yet to see such a thing as shit roadkill.
Loved Cyclops bug! Kevin IS a jerk.
This theme could make a months worth of strips.

Sounds like my kind of Odyssey! Adam does rock.
5th panel is definetely a winner
We need an entire week of classic literature as told by Bug.
Ooh, next he should do one of aesops fables
Awww poor cyclops and his lack of depth perception!
My boss almost caught looking at this at work. Damn you for being so funny, Adam!

Thanks a lot, man!
Wow anyone else look up “Krull”. So watching that on netflix tonight!
That’s not how I remember the Odyssey… He must have read the abridged version.
PRICELESS! What a wonderful way to start my day!
I know the Odyssey quite well due to being a literature nerd, and I actually sat there for a second thinking, “I don’t remember Odysseus using a ninja star…” Haha!
You know, I just looked up Krull too, and it seems very
OH MY GOD it’s Qui-Gon Jinn and Hagrid! When they were much younger, I might add.
So, is Kevin’s name now Sans Testiclese?
I’m wondering that nobody wondered that Nerd Bug is in fact Poseidon?
Nice tie to the previous day’s comic
Overly Sarcastic Productions managed to cram it into 14 minutes.
