Geek Talk

So what this means for you non-geek fans out there is: The actor that plays Sylar the bad guy from Season 1 of Heroes, is going to be the actor that plays Spock in the new Star Trek Movie. The news is a bit old (it came out during Comic Con), but bear with Billy. He is a hillbilly, and this town is usually 3 years behind, so consider this an improvement!

No TV

I had to work the grave yard last night... then come back 8 hours later for the afternoon shift.. I hope the guy doesn't seem rushed. Also pretend this is still last week, and this guest hasn't really been staying for 2 weeks.

Pizza Delivery

I know I just introduced a new thing yesterday, but I have been wanting to add 'Kev' the pizza dude for a while now. Kev will add a new dimension of jokes that I hope you all will enjoy! By the way Kev's full name is Kevin Penn, and he's kinda this surfer dude... that lives next to a lake....

In honor of Mike

So this is kinda a weird way to pay tribute to mike, but this plant is now going to be in almost every strip. (any where it involves the desk) So I will actually be paying tribute to Mike Wieringo in every strip this just explains it. This strip is also one of the only ones where spring and Allen will get along. Also starting next week I will be doing the strip every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and every other Sunday. This way I will have more time to make them, and the series will last longer.

takeing a break

So I know I haven't posted like I said I would. to be honest. a daily comic has been very time consuming. So I decided to take the week off. I will have a new comic Tuesday or so.

Aug 15, 2007

8-15

Ok I have an idea to pay tribute.. but I was working the graveyard last night. So I need to sleep, but I should get it online later tonight and start getting into the regular story tomorrow.

Mike Wieringo's death

I will not be posting a new comic for Tuesday. I discovered today that my favorite comic book artist died Sunday of a heart attack. This has deeply saddened me. He was the man that really inspired me to draw. He had a website he posted to regularly.. which seems to be taken down now here, and a news article about the tragic event here. When My father died I turned to comics at the age of 13. Mike was the greatest artist I'd ever seen. I was lucky enough to see him once in my lifetime, but the lost of this very influential man has greatly saddened me. I will probably devote the next comic to a tribute to him... If you want to see his art, he still has his deviant page here. And this pic in the post was the last he ever posted on his site. If this post makes little sense, you can tell the pain I am feeling.

Angel Look alike???

Scott's and Spring in real life are Uber Buffy Geeks... I've just jumped on the bandwagon, but its cool! Joss Whedon is a mastermind, when it comes to Firefly/Serenity so I had to like Buffy... right!?

Wrong Key

So this kinda did really happen... but I really did give the wrong key out.. Oops, but the guest making the mistake is funnier! lol

Coffee... the finale frontier??

So I hope anyone who watches Battlestar Galactica has seen the season finale... cause you won't know what I mean if you don't.

Also if you haven't noticed I added a poll on the right side of the page. I basically want to know how many of you are reading, and how often you come around.

A Trekkie checks in

So I'm not a huge fan of Star Trek, but its not all bad. And I won't kill you if you like it... but you better like Star Wars too! (I have watched most of the Treks... DS9 is the only really good one... the Borg stuff was cool too in Next Gen.)

New Thundercats Movie

Comic-con Aftermath


So Comic-con just ended, and a lot of big news came from there. I know I the strips should be about stupid tourist, but to many geeky things are going on in the world! lol

Wiimote

So if you haven't checked out wiihaveaproblem.com, its a pretty funny site about stupid people that let go of their wiimotes, and break the wall or TV in front of them.

Jul 25, 2007

Wii Sport


So have you ever played the Wii much that you began seeing the world in Mii-vision?... Well me either, but I thought it would be a neat idea for a week long theme! So expect much more Mii-Madness to come!

Wii Week Begins

Well this is the start of Wii Week. I just got a Wii not to long ago, and I have obsessed over it, about as much as depicted here this week!

Jul 21, 2007

Fishing in the pool

I'm glade to finally get a close up on Allen, so you can see his badge is on upside down. I'm constantly doing that with my name tag. Also Allen is finally reading a new comic cover! Wahoo!

Star Wars Miniatures

So I am a huge fan of Star Wars Miniatures and I had to show off one of my maps in the strip! If you haven't heard Star Wars Miniatures is a scaled down version of an RPG like D&D. Basically all you do is battle! Check it out here. Its loads of fun, but as of late I have not been able to find anyone to play with here in this tourist trap I live in!

Phone doesn't work

So this is actually seems like a stupid moment on Allens part! But really he ment to say that, cause he doesn't want to talk to him!

Jul 16, 2007

Waltzing Man


Yes people do actually say this stuff!! People on Vaction need to learn to take a chill pill!

Jul 14, 2007

Towels


This is a true story! People on vacation really are that dumb sometimes.

Jul 13, 2007

Slayer?


So it's Friday the 13th again, and for todays web comic We wanted to add a Buffy reference. Its a little vague, but I assure you that was the intention.

Jul 12, 2007

Amenities


Well today's web comic is one of those funny Bill Engvall moments. I felt like reaching through the phone and handing this guy a "sign." Look up Bill Engvall if you don't know what I mean.

Jul 11, 2007

Harry Potter

Ok SO I'm not really that obsessive, but I do really enjoy the Harry Potter series. And this newest movie looks really cool! I will probably wait until after the little ones won't be there by the bus loads!

Lost Loser



Well I'm sure you can tell I have a going gag with all these crappy pick up lines. Its just too easy to make fun of stupid guys.

100th Comic

So this is it! This in the 1-00! I can't believe I have made 100 comics about people on vacation (or geeky stuff) I expect to make some for a year, and see what the readers have to say. If I get a lot good input, I will keep going, otherwise, I'll probably move on to another idea! Well Thanks for reading, and I'll see ya tomorrow!

Jul 7, 2007

Scott turns to the darkside


So he's not really, but I just wanted to something visually different, and keep it simple. Most might not find this to funny, but it is soo true! Also this is the 99th web comic! tomorrow will be the 100th. I can't believe I've made that many, and that people keep reading them(Of course I do hound people all the time.. lol) Man I love when I quote Star Wars because that is soo me! hope you enjoy!

Video Rental or Popcorn Maker?


I have some new wallpapers over at the archives. The wallpapers include some Star Wars art, and art for an upcoming Wii themed week! Click the Thumbnails below for the link!

Jul 5, 2007

Fireworks Backlash


This image I really love because it's suppose to pay tribute to Raiders of the lost ark, and with the Indiana Jones IV production plugging right along, you can expect the geeky references to continue!

I also want to note I added a banner ad.. in hopes that I can make some funds (so any one that wants to support Tourist Trap can simply click on the links so I can gain some fundage!)

Happy July 4th


So if you don't understand, Allen and Scott are talking about the new Transformers movie. Growing up we never really watched the cartoon, but that doesn't mean the movie doesn't look bad@$$, and I really do want to see it!
