Comic for March 3, 2009: Say, Mr. Sandman…
Oh god! Oh man! Oh god! Oh man!
Remember when Dean Smallenstatur mentioned Dr. Malloc way back in this strip? Because I totally didn’t.
Seriously—if you remembered that, you have a really good memory.
ooh, dark nightmare!

And that’s why you check for memory leaks.

Also, who are those shadowy figures behind Professor Malloc? Other professors?

@macsnafu: You got it. Specifically, they were involved with the time travel project at Micimek and were in the lab when it exploded. We’ve sorta let the issue of all the other folks who were working on the project fall by the wayside, but rest assured we haven’t forgotten about them. (And as you can see, neither has Jen.)
@Carlo: I know! They’ll get you every time.

That was a long wait for a new comic. I become a fan of this right when you messed up your arm (sleeping).

You know, that Professor Malloc looks surprisingly familiar…

@Nick D: Many apologies for the wait. To ensure it won’t happen again, we’ve taken away John’s sleeping privileges until he can prove to us that he can safely nap without breaking himself.
He’s currently on his 284th can of Red Bull.

I keep coming back and looking at this stip again and again. There’s just something fascinating about it. I know it’s Jen’s dream, but Milo seems more focused and/or oblivious than usual.
