This is the Ending
And so the Twitter Saga comes to an end.If you’d like, go back and read the whole thing from the beginning!
I had a lot of fun with this story, and I hope you guys enjoyed it at least half as much as I did. I’ve gotten a better response from this story than any other before, and I’m thinking about possibly making it into a limited edition print book of them, or something… just some thoughts. In any case, I had a blast, so thanks for all the feedback and all the kind words! This story totally evolved on its own, I never intended it to be a big storyline, I just had one or two gags about twitter, and one thing led to another, and before I knew it, it had become a sprawling sci-fi parody epic techno zombie opera. Amazing!
We’ll return to some regularly scheduled jokes for a bit and then there’s some big things happening to the gang later this year, so remember to keep coming back for even weirder adventures of our heroes. I use the term “heroes” pretty loosely.
In other news, This Saturday is Free Comic Book Day! That means its a great excuse to head over to your local comic shop, pick up some free books, and enjoy the greatness of comics. If you’ve been out of the comics scene for a while, this is the best excuse for you to get back in — free books!
I also want to take this moment to highlight a new find — I love finding new comics, especially sci-fi ones, especially by readers of Dorm Dorks, so, if you have a chance, head over to Moon Freight 3 for some good sci-fi laughs. It updates on the same days I do over at moonfreight3.comicgenesis.com

I’ve had a twitter account for about a month and a half and I’ve only written three tweets, which is pretty boring. I really don’t know what you’re supposed to tweet about. “I’m sitting here…” just doesn’t need to be chronicled, for me or for anyone else.
I’m thinking about just starting to make stuff up on my tweets to make it sound like I’m more interesting than I actually am. So like, if I’m sitting at home watching TV I would have an entry like “Para-sailing in Guam” or if I’m brushing my teeth before bed it would be like “watching the sunrise on a beach in Maui”. And then people would be like, dang, how did he get from Guam to Maui in 3 minutes?
Anway, the people in my limo are looking at me weird for writing this while the fully stocked mini-bar is calling my name. You have to enjoy New York city while you’re here I suppose. So i’m gonna go party with them now. Later.

Mike, I think this was one of your more entertaining and interesting stories. It was well done and I noticed that you tried some new techniques (or at least, not often used) as well throughout the arc. So, in honor of that, I will not comment on how badly twitter sucks and how the people that use it are narcissistic and vain.
Or am I…

@Damon – this plan is amazing, I require you to do this! Also, enjoy New York, I wish I was there!
@Chris – thanks man, I appreciate it! And it wouldn’t be a twitter comic without you making fun of twitter, so thanks for making the experience complete!
