    I wonder how much of history would have changed if it HAD been Honda Civic…

      Well, for one thing Honda would probably not be called Honda in that alternate universe where the line includes the word 😀

        For Jesus, a central figure of Western religion for over 2000 years, to have been driving a Japanese car… that’d be something, alright.

      12:49 John (NIV): For I (Jesus) did not speak of my own accord

      So it wouldn’t have been the civic model in any case.
      I just thought a carpenter would be driving a van.

        You win. No offense Adam, but sometimes the comments under a comic are better than the comic itself. This is one of those rare and wonderful moments.

        I wonder; do you ever read a comment then smack your forehead and scream, “Why didn’t I think of that?!?”

          I think once or twice, someone has come up with a better title. I’m just happy when I read funny and/or interesting comments. I’ll take those over comments that read like someone copied and pasted an article from Wikipedia.

    No matter what happens, no matter how exciting or impossible it would be, someone would still complain about it.
    Mind you, if I was Death, I wouldn’t want to go near that kind of guy.

    Actually, in the original Hebrew it speaks of a sweet MoPed.

      No, he spelled “yea” correctly. It’s pronounced “yay”.

        Though, the bible would be a much more casual read if they swapped all the “yeas” for “yeahs.”

          I’m still trying to get my church to refer to Jesus as Josh Josephson. Way more casual and technically correct.

          While they’re at it they should replace “amen” with “word” in Christian churches, imagine the crowd if the minister had street cred!

    Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, because everyone is dead. Yea, even the evil ones.

    fun fact, in german it’s “Ob ich schon wanderte im finsteren Tal”, “though I walked through the dark valley”. How lame is “dark valley” compared to “valley of the shadow of death”?

      A pure literature, the King James version is pretty rocking overall. It was compossed by a translation committee of the generation that cranked out Shakespear and Marlow. They knew how to write.

    You know, I’ve pulled people from mangled cars, run into burning buildings and cleaned up some pretty gross things but, I’ve never had a sense of panic like I just had when I went to update my Bug toolbar link to today’s comic and accidently hit ‘Delete’ instead of “Paste”.

    Luckily, I just rebookmarked.
    Phhewww! Close one. 😀

    Okay, that first frame? There’s your t-shirt. The picture on the front, with speech caption; narrator’s caption on the back.

    C’mon, dude … please?

    I just love how annoyed Death was.

    “Seriously. We are already walking through 2 circle of hells and you just keep bitching nonstop all the way. You stay here while I take my brake! rakumfrakum.”

    You should let people start patreon-izing you, your comic is awesome! I read several webcomics on a regular basis and yours is one of the few that I always find amusing (and I did not pull my comment from Wikipedia).

    a) person with patreon comment – there is a blog entry on the main page re: patreon. I think many readers would be happy to give back to this wonderful site

    b) is there any sort of meaning to the fact that the mom bug has the same hairstyle as girlfriend bug?!?

      b) – I’m sure Freud would say there is. But it’s just my default “girl hairdo.”
