A book 12 years in the making...

Hey geeks!. 

We’re back, with a new book and a new Kickstarter! 

We have so far ruined Science, Religion, and Love. Today, we ruin children.

The comics for the Parenting - An SMBC Collection book have been carefully selected by Zach and Kelly from the entire run of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal and polished up for print! 

Many of the older strips are re-lettered and re-paneled to look their best. 

Alongside the new collection, backers can also pick up our new illustrated middle grade novel starring a ferociously inactive kid who is dragged against his will into mystery and adventure - Sawyer Lee and the Quest to Just Stay Home. Officially this book is for ages 8-12, but we think it'll be funny for all readers.

Please check out our new Kickstarter here! 

Thanks for all of your support over the years.

Zach

To which he replied, 'regicide?'

I read a guy the other day saying all cognitive tasks will be automated, so it's important to stay flexible, and all I can figure is he was imagining humans would make a good building material.

The key is to put the self-on-fire at the beginning of the video and promise to show that it technically cures cancer, but only if you watch to the end without skipping.
