It was just a joke, the real reason is that he announced plans to publish a second volume of his cookbook and took pre-orders, but the book never got published. Some goons were very upset about this and at various points in the long history of this thread it kind of overwhelmed the discourse. It was originally set to be published in May, 2010 so depending on your perspective that is either a long time to hold a grudge or a long time to put together a low budget novelty cookbook. Or both!

I view my unfulfilled pre-order as the purchased right to complain about Achewood whenever and however I want.

I kind of hope my pre-ordered part 1 omnibus never arrives and instead I just get a piece of paper with furious dongs and "up yours customer!" drawn on it.

If people spent money on a thing they didn't receive, it's a reasonable thing to be upset about. That said, it is still far from the most egregious mishandling of money in the history of web comics.

I was wondering if hbomberguy is going to make one.

Speaking of GOF, I used to be of the mind of " Okay, it's not that great because cmon, Ray is a soft rich boy that has never thrown a fist in anger once in his life, and now he just dominates the GOF? " but then I remembered the strip where Lil Nephew was driving a Honda into a lake at one inch an hour and Ray snapped a wheel off, and pulled out the back axle with his bare hands. Dude is a freak.

Nice Pete (crazy) was on Pat's couch eating a bucket of drum-sticks. After he sucks all the meat off the bone he breaks it in half and drops it back in the bucket. He does not smile or frown.

So apparently Robert Smith of The Cure fame is collaborating with The Gorillaz on a song, which immediately had me thinking of all the times this strip has made jokes about that band*(well that and a joke Strong Bad once made claiming that someone dressed up as Strong Sad for one of the Homestar Runner^ Halloween videos was in fact a "dumpy Robert Smith action figure") *The Cure to be specific ^So I get hit with nostalgia for two dead or mostly dead artifacts of early 2000's Internet Pop Culture

oh i was frustrated that you didn't include the best Cure line and then I guess it didn't load for me the first time "Pretty good now that I am 239,000 miles from The Cure" is a real, real good burn.

The one for PFSC, dead wasp and all, plus some original comics and journal notes.  I've known enough artist types that John Campbell burning a bunch of extra copies of their book and posting the video of it to the Kickstarter immediately registered as just part of the piece to me. I hope they're doing better these days.

Were the copies "extra"? I thought a lot of people never got theirs because after spending so much money on dead wasps JC hadn't left enough for postage.

Adding up the orders on the Kickstarter page comes out to a little over 1000 copies of the book, and it's pretty standard to wind up with a 10% overrun on custom orders like this, so the 127 copies that they burned are about in that range.

IF AT FIRST YOU ARE STERN HIS RESPECT YOU WILL EARN Edit: Okay, I got pretty close without actually looking at the strip Edit 2: And can I just say that I love the silent panels of Nice Pete there. In my mind, the only thing that moves are his eyes. Looking at the 20 in Lyles hand, snap up to Lyles face for a moment. THEN " Of course".
