Episode 4: “Am I going to die?”

Now you might be asking, “how can there be a reference to potatoes in Europe in the middle ages long before the Spanish Conquistadors brought them back from Peru in the early 16th century?”

You and Wikipedia make a great point.

What you should know is that this comic strip takes history as seriously as Xena, The Flintstones and the Creation Museum. That is to say, it will play fast and loose with historical accuracy if it serves the joke.

Thanks for visiting. If you haven’t, maybe check out my other webcomic Astounding Space Thrills. The original AST strips ran in 1998 and were optimized for 14.4k modems so I’m now re-lettering larger versions of the strips and showing them off with more than 256 colors. So fancy!

See you next week!
