I could likely get one of the interns to click through every comic and save it as a PDF, then open it with an editor to add the alt-text at the bottom. Assuming a college kid with a broken spirt is doing the work, how loing you guys think this will take? If they can get even 75% of the way through before I am discoveded and fired it might be worth it.

A script to do that automatically would be exceeding easy to code, and you could probably find a coder to knock it out for you in less than an hour for a case of beer.

Ending it in the blogs was kind of lame, but I'm pretty sure the sun will burn out before we get any more collected Achewood books so whatever.

I've always wanted to make myself a real nice and fancy leatherbound collection of Achewood.

Did Onstad just write a happy ending for Roast Beef? I think Todd got one at least.

Yes, using the product Onstad will soon sell can fix a sad cat's lifetime mental illness.

I really hope that someone somewhere has all the strips saved at the very least, for when Chris becomes the first guy to die from a weed overdose after making cannabis-infused soda syrup

It seems like a happy ending, and all his friends think it's a happy ending, but then two months go by and Ray pops by to pick Beef up to go to a Tenmen concert and finds Beef in the shower with his face shotgunned off.

You get better just enough to actually act. You did it, Beef. You walked through those grocery store doors.

quote:High gear as it was, anyhow. In the end, Hristo wasn't really trying to "flee" or "fight." We think a lot of nature, but this was not a moment of well-defined instinct or noble action. He was just a scared little boy caught in a complex matrix of safety, danger, family, and urine. He neither fought nor fled; if anything, he "noticed and was stung by the neutered scorpion of human pain." some people try real hard and some people just got it And onstad? You got it, baybee

Is Beef, in his vision of a medical experiment, shaking the mouse's hand with the tweezers or pulling him back on to the table or what in the last panel?
|
![]() |
|
I always read it as him coldly and methodically removing his paws from the table so he could fall to his death, like the hampster this girl accidentally dropped on the ground when I was working at the SPCA and we told her he was just literally scared stiff and not actually dead so she'd stop bawling and shaking

I thought he was just giving the mouse a file to help him escape.

He is clearly killing the mouse. Beef imagines himself killing the mouse, as it is what he would have to do, if he were to have a respectable job.
|

|
Beef could barely cook a rooster that still had its dong attached. He is respectfully shaking the little mouses hand after realizing he cannot murder them. He does not consider this a noble end, rather the logical conclusion of his failures as a man and an adult that he should capitulate to rodent peership so rapidly

The mouse watches in horror as the cat approaches his comrades with a hammer. They flee, but the mouse does not turn away. The cat congratulates him, the experiment was a success, science moves ever onward.

In a fantasy of complicity with the function of capitalist society, Beef is confronted with the fact that if he were any better at existing than he is, he would be a monster.

I started reading the blogs for the first time. They really are a treasure trove of content, and I’ve only gone through the first couple months of Ray and Beef. I wish Onstead would have made comics out of the Korean BBQ trip or Ray’s Country Western and/or Machete parties. Beef calling a Mexican dish “crass and lovely” makes me laugh every time I think about it for some reason.
