MythTickle by Justin Thompson for September 17, 2014

Don’t worry Karma I’ll bet some one could use Dudley’s day. Hint Hint

Can I buy Snoopy & the Tardis, El Jefe?

I’ll take a free karmic day over yet another crappy U2 album that even the band know no one will buy.. willingly.

Obviously Karma did not think it through far enough; put it in a cloud and it will rain on someone’s parade. Then they would have sun and rain and only the people with no sense to stay out of the rain would be enjoying the sun.

So many levels on this comic…and, I also wonder…is that TARDIS bigger on the inside?

Tell you what, anybody who doesn’t want a great Karmic day can send it over to me.

Please.Touch me.

Made me think of Chapter 2 of the Tao Te Ching:

When all the people of the world know beauty as beauty, There arises the recognition of ugliness.When they all know the good as good, There arises the recognition of evil.Therefore: Being and non-being produce each other; Difficult and easy complete each other; Long and short contrast each other;High and low distinguish each other; Sound and voice harmonize each other; Front and behind accompany each other.Therefore the sage manages affairs without action And spreads doctrines without words.All things arise, and he does not turn away from them. He produces them but does not take possession of them.He acts but does not rely on his own ability. He accomplishes his task but does not claim credit for it. It is precisely because he does not claim credit that his accomplishment remains with him.(Wing-tsit Chan translation)Therefore: beautiful days and ugly days complete each other.Just do it, or more precisely let it happen through you. Don’t announce it; let it announce itself..

“Web comics for no profit”. It looks like GoComics is making a fortune with the many obnoxious, invasive ads. They should share some of that cash.

Today’s strip has made me think very hard about the message behind it.

I am glad to say that I have never criticized any web comic creator, but it dawned on me there are too few times I have thanked a creator for the hard work they do to entertain me.

Justin, thank you for working so hard on Mythtickle. I love the strip. Consistently, it has brought me delight and as I read my webcomics in bed before I get up before I go to work, I eagerly look forward to your strip (even the repeats) as they truly do brighten my day.

Well, that’s karma, Karma. Be like El Jefe: put a tin pot on your head and hide from the Evil out there…..Or, listen to Beautiful Days.

@Heavy HorseBravo and ditto.I don’t comment here often, but MT is very high in my queue.

Such beautiful work deserves reward. In time a method will develop, but likely not in time to help you.

Dittos!LOVE your comic, Justin…especially the artwork.

Hmm. And I thought it was just a reference to all the people that were outraged that Apple automatically downloaded the new U2 album to peoples’ iTunes. They gave it away free and apparently a bunch of folks got POd.

Well… I respect you, Justin. And I love Mythtickle. It’s in my top 10.

Yes, I would like to add my appreciation for your work. I look forward to MythTickle each day.

Also, who is the character with his feet sticking out from under the wizard hat. …it stirs up a loooonng and deeply buried memory. who IS that?

Firefox or Chrome plus adblock. No more ads.

I generally have no problem with a few ads, but when they become intrusive I block ’em.

Justin, is this strip’s remarkable similarity to what Apple did a remarkable coincidence, or is your work that current?

Actually, I respect you more than anyone big brother. You probably don’t realize it, even though I have said it 100 times, you are my hero, the best big brother anyone could have. A lot of times, people don’t believe me when I tell them this is my brothers very own cartoon, until they see the name, then they are quite impressed. But no one, except maybe mom, is as proud and impressed as I am, with all you have accomplished. I have ALL the respect in the world for you. I just know one day I will see Mythtickle on the comics page of the Sunday newspaper, right next to peanuts and family circle. Keep up the great work big brother, we are all pulling for you. ;:^)

BTW if ya all want to be really impressed, check out what Justin did in Cuba, I think it’s called the Cuba chronicles. Justin brought Snoopy to Cuba…way cool. ;:-}

Namaste, y’all!

Give me about -5 C with about 2’ of fresh snow on the ground – perfect sledding (snowmobile) weather! Btw, I imagine there’s more than a few people out there that think I’m absolutely nuts!

I’ll take it Karma, and perhaps Dudley will come round in time.
