I had thought Nice Pete didn't have periods, but maybe he does when he is Writing?

Also that strip reminded me of how horrifyingly great Nice Pete's descriptions of women are.

Another classic Nice Pete description of the fairer sex: http://achewood.com/index.php?date=03032008

And an even more horrifying look at how Nice Pete views women from the infamous High School arc: http://achewood.com/index.php?date=05312010

Nice Pete is terrifying.

The part of this that I think I love most is the expression on Téodor's face in the last panel. He was talking to Nice Pete like Pete was an actual person, but then it dawned on him that no, he's actually Nice Pete.

There is a weird politesse about Nice Pete when he's not in murder mode. He has Southern ways.

e: Regarding the discussion of Cornelius's voice from when the strip most recently reappeared, I think this and the following are a great example of his natural speech as well as his ability to relate to a dude who knows what kind of tires he has.

I think Chrome for Android lets you install user scripts, which case this one should do what you need.

Speaking of which, Achewood could certainly do with a more mobile-friendly interface. Those little arrows at the top of the page are terrible on mobile devices. Just making it so clicking on a comic brings you to the next one instead of linking to the same comic would be a huge improvement.

Yeah actually I don't know why he does that. Why would anyone make clicking a comic bring you right to the exact same comic like a big refresh button. Is this some weird metaphor for depression, Onstad?!
