My great love for bugs isn't much of a secret.  One of my favorite things about summer (I mean it's fall now, but this comic was actually drawn some time during August) is catching/playing with/very nicely harrassing cicadas and cicada nymphs.  DON'T LISTEN TO CONRAD, THEY ARE ADORABLE.

 

We completely forgot to mention -- Rich Stevens, Meredith Gran, and James Kochalka all made small cameos in the last comic.  If you have not already, you should probably check out their respective comics; they are each funnier and more talented than we are collectively.
