Guide Us, All-Spark!
Jun 16, 2025Tap to summarizeOh My Me! Oh My Me!!It’s Jeff, everybody! Andrew is away on a MUCH-NEEDED trip to the Philippines of all places! What a wonderful and industrious fella that Andrew is. Well, in his stead, I’ve dusted off the editing software and cobbled SOMETHING together from the blathering Jeff, Roman, & Django did this week.No spoilers here, but…. there are A LOT of high scores this week. Like…. most of MY comics were in the “9-range” but make sure and drink plenty of water, because I believe Roman dropped a handful of Geoducks. Buckle up, it’s gonna be messy!
