Heliotrope: Aug 17, 2007; You're fucking subhuman

Cucumber Quest is one of my favorite comics. The one liners below the comic are really good even though she just comes up with them on the spot when uploading. Apparently she's planning on having a book, but the comments won't be in them

quote:

When (if?) the Cucumber Quest books are printed, will you find a way to incorporate your commentary one-liners at the bottom of the pages? The story just wouldn�t be the same without it

I�ve been asked this a few times, and I�m a little surprised that the author�s comments are so well-liked considering that they�re all afterthoughts. Really, I come up with those on the spot when I�m uploading each page just so that the �comment� box has something in it.

I�m glad people like them so much! But I don�t have any plans to put them in the book. Including them at this point would mean reformatting all of the pages I�ve already put together, but the bigger issue is that I just think they�d be out of place. I mentioned this on twitter, but when I imagine a printed book with sarcastic one-liners on every single page, it makes me cringe a little bit.

So�I�m sorry, and I hope you understand! I want the CQ book to be the best I can make it, and I feel like this is the way to go.

I'd love this one, but I just got this thing not to long ago. I should probably keep it for a little while.

I'm thinking of getting it myself, but I may want a Dongan Ronpa av sometime later and I still like this one and aaaa why it so hard

I want that hardcover so bad but there is NO way I'll be able to pledge upwards of 80 dollars.

Yeah I prefer hardcover to softcover but that is quite a bit of money for me.

Edit: Wait a minute, is Bagel's cellphone a candybar?

Man it must be difficult in this world not to eat your possessions by accident.

I've been waffling over if I should pay $85 for the hardcover but after thinking about it I can go for the lower $25 softcover because I want in on this so much.

This is a completely reasonable concern presented in a reasonable way, and Gigi responded with an equally reasonable and respectful answer.

This isn't "getting poo poo for it" at all, especially since she explicitly requested that if anyone having issue with the punchline bring it up with her.

No you see, Tumblr.
