Spaz #2<\/strong><\/p>\n

With a mini comic (or any comic I guess) there’s really only one question to be asked about the second issue: was it better than the first?\u00c2\u00a0 In this case the answer is an unqualified yes, as she spends more time writing, has more funny bits and just generally kicks the ass of this comic.\u00c2\u00a0 Not that I had a problem with the last one, but there’s not a weak piece in here.\u00c2\u00a0 Things start off with a tale of her job in general and the t-shirt she wears specifically, as it says “Obama Eats Here”.\u00c2\u00a0 She lays out the map, shows where he used to live, where his kids went to school and where he taught for 12 years and yeah, it’s pretty clear that he would have eaten there at some point.\u00c2\u00a0 Naturally, this t-shirt leads to all sorts of (mostly stupid) questions, and Emi does a great job of running them all down and explaining it all to the slow folks.\u00c2\u00a0 There’s one more page dealing with her job, but if I say anything about it I’ll ruin the joke, so forget it.\u00c2\u00a0 Other than that the comic basically breaks down into two parts: stories about her relationship with her boyfriend and her “conversations” with a zygote.\u00c2\u00a0 Her relationship with her boyfriend seems horribly strained, but in a “funny for comics” kind of way, and it mostly seems to end well.\u00c2\u00a0 You’ll probably have to read the comic for that to make sense, but trust me.\u00c2\u00a0 Her conversations with the zygote deal with her asking it about the wisdom of having kids with her boyfriend (as she worries about what genes he would pass on) and going on a cruise with it, as it hopes that said cruise will lead her to reproduce.\u00c2\u00a0 This zygote is a hilarious font of useless, contradictory and just plain wrong information, which is always fun when trying to get advice.\u00c2\u00a0 Also, I checked for that “atrocious error” she mentioned on her website and didn’t see anything.\u00c2\u00a0 I generally catch spelling mistakes, although grammar errors sometimes fly right by me.\u00c2\u00a0 Maybe something in her localized map of Chicago?\u00c2\u00a0 Either way, it sure wasn’t a big deal.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s another issue that’s well worth checking out, here’s hoping she keeps up this pace because there’s some serious potential here.\u00c2\u00a0 $2<\/p>\n
