In a way, a continuation of NB335. Hopefully it won't turn into a
story arc, because I've decided that I hate story arcs, just like
those other web cartoonists you know and love.

Story arcs as in serials? Aw. It's not that I expressly prefer serials to
single strips, but it sort of makes Nerd Boy a bit more limited if every
strip has to get its story and joke over in four or so frames.

By the way, is Mandy ever going to appear as a major character again, or did
I miss something and she got killed off?

I think the story arcs are good. The other day when you posted about the
voting thingy, I went back and read every single nerdboy strip (took a
while, heh). When read in that context, the story arcs make a lot of sense
and are fun to read. Even the strange bit with the huge hovercraft that made
very little sense to me when you posted it originally ;-)

Welcome in the club :-)
Yes, the voting thingy was a very strong one.
In Germany we call this sort of riddle-sketch
a "Drudel" (pronounciation: droodle). May be
you know these things: "A mexican on a bicycle,
with large hat, seen from above" and the like:
