    The title seems to have weird spacing issues Adam, is it just me?

    That “got it” got me good. xD

      The title is so awesome!

      I think the spacing is just because it’s justified to fill the entire space from left to right, and “debilitating” can’t quite fit on the top line.

      I thought the spacing was meant to emulate the staccato singing from ‘Bohemnian Rhapsody’ …or am I over-thinking it?

      You’re right, that does look weird. That’s WordPress trying to space out a very long title. Pretty sure this is the longest title I’ve ever had.

    Wouldn’t you enjoy being able to shape-shift and screw any mortal woman you like?

    Man left arm lightning chucks, who know WHERE they will end up?! Probably just on the cloud 4 feet in front of you.

    Kicking it off the cloud reminds me of Disney’s Fantasia – the first one – in the Pastoral Symphony piece by Beethoven. Zeus was throwing and kicking thunderbolts in that, too. Don’t know which throwing arm he used, though….

      I was thinking of just that scene when I read this! Zeus gets tired of making the storm, so he’s heading off to bed and there’s a tiny bolt under him and he kicks it over the side of the cloud as he curls up to sleep.

      What really makes me giggle is thinking of Nerd Bug being Hephaestus 😀

      Actully, I belive he used both hands so he could throw faster. Then at the end he’s tired and kicks the last one or two off his cloud so he can sleep. 🙂 …..Nope went and looked he holds them in his left but throws with the right.

    You know a comic is good when you read it at work and the laugh-suppression mouth-shut-hands-on-mouth trick doesn’t work

      Personally, I suspect it of being a reference to “Pajama Sam: Thunder and Lightning Aren’t So Frightening”. Which I approve of.

    I am truly saddened by the level of religious bigotry Adam displays in his depiction of the Gods of antiquity.

      He’s not depicting the gods, it’s the bugs as if they were the gods. Big difference!

        Still, I feel bug Zeus would not be amused. Once you travel down to the path to such wanton irreverence, can anything really be sacred?

        I hope Adam’s blasphemies do not get him a stint in bug Hell (6 yr. old kid with a magnifying glass – Abandon ye all hope).

        In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of mandibles.

    OK, I really love the idea of Zeus kicking lightning bolts over the side. That panel was PERFECT after a long week. Thank you 😀

    Couldn’t he just get Aphrodite to give him a massage? I could use a godly massage right about now…
