Four Years & 200 Strips Later…

Well, this is it! The final strip! Hard to believe this is the last time I’ll be spending my Tuesday nights trying to craft a new adventure for these little guys, but it looks like they don’t need me anymore anyways.

I do sincerely appreciate the time you’ve chosen to spend here. If you don’t want the magic to end, then please consider following my work at Cowboy Jedi and Eye-Level Entertainment.

And remember moving on isn’t always a bad thing. (Language warning on that link there.)

The Prodigal Rat Returns

Next stop… strip 200… the final strip!

To celebrate the ending of Rat Tangent, I’ll be posting a bit of a self-indulgent retrospective. I’ve culled the entire run down to ten of my favorite strips and will be posting one a day for the next ten days. It wasn’t easy picking out only ten, so I’ll let you know why these ones really stick out as the best of the best.

Exit Stage Right

Only two strips left after this one. Time to get some reminiscing on soon…

It’s true. Future Dalton said it right here. Have a great new year! See you next year for the last five strips!

Ho Ho Hopeless

We love great animation and cartoons around here AND we love interesting ideas. The RSA seems to be doing both. They take interesting lectures and then illustrate them on a white board. Here’s one for you to check out…

I Heard He Was Hooked On Power Pellets

Ah… 30 years ago, Pac Man Fever ruled the land and I, as a young boy, was under its sway. Good thing those video games never caught on. Yep. That would’ve been a big waste of my time. No doubt.

And Then There Were Two

Enter the Minotaur!

Late For Dinner

Happy Thanksgiving all!

Belated Halloween Special!

Mark — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 09:00:00 +0000

I know it’s a couple weeks late this year, but a spooky themed strip rises from the grave again. if you want to see some of the older Halloween strips shambling around Rat Tangent, you can look here, here, or, if you dare, here.

Of course, maybe we shouldn’t be worried about the zombies taking over the world. It might just be an army of these little dudes.

Watch the full episode. See more Wired Science.

10:13 (Coffee Break)

I’ve been wanting to do a casual group shot of the gang for a while. The title is a reference to the little blurb that showed up at the end of The X-Files. It would show a logo for 10:13 productions and then some little kid voice over would say, “I made this!”. I always liked it for some reason…
