    At least he still has his body (such as it is) unlike Ted Williams.

    I enjoy just about all of these comics but John, I have to say you have outdone yourself with this one.

    That is one of the major concerns of cryogenics. How do you prevent the ice crystals from destroying the cells?

    Hey! Thanks for all of your comments regarding MY thanks to you. J Short, I feel like DIRT for leaving you out! And anyone else, for that matter! Geesh. But, cartoonists are far from perfect you know. To answer some of your questions; Lambdo-sychrosis is a totally fictitious disease. If I use real diseases I get slammed by people who HAVE those diseases! Don’t want to upset people, you know. As for the further adventures of Bleeb, you will just have to stay tuned! I am not sure what I am going to do, exactly, mostly just have fun. So, I have appreciated you folks noticing Bleeb and talking about him. I’m just toying around with creating this secondary world within Close To Home.

    If you ever have any questions, feel free to post them here and I will do my best to answer them. And you never know when one of your names may end up in a cartoon.

    Thanks for being great fans. I’m off to finish drawing a nose! John
