yay!, harley
Those of you that have known me a fairly long amount of time know of my love for Nothing Nice to Say. In fact, it was pretty much my obsession for about a year. I met a bunch of lovely internet friends through that comic and I also met my first boyfriend through our mutual love of the comic.

It's funny, but that stage of my life seems so remote and so far away that I can only remember glimpses. I made a t-shirt for NN2S creator Mitch Clem that said "Jesus was a punk" and I spent many late night hours reading archives and posting on the forum. In fact, my first bit of fan art was for that site. I made avatars for my "friends" on the forums and still talk to a select few from those times.

Wow, all that passion and I was only in high school...

Anyhow, I am so happy to hear that Dark Horse will be releasing the complete NN2S in print on October 15th. Weee! When Mitch announced that he was ending NN2S I immediately went through the whole of the archives and saved every single comic. EVERY.SINGLE.COMIC.

Let that sink in...

Anyway, I started formatting a booklet of the comics on PageMaker but got sad halfway through and eventually abandoned the endeavor.

I'm glad someone finally decided to put the comic in print. I feel as though I know how much work and labor and tears and horrible nights went into that comic, mostly because Mitch talked of it at length on the blogs accompanying the comics. I can't wait for the collection to come out.

Oh Wow, I didn't even know LJ entries were searchable that way!

I don't think "searchable" is a word...

Anyway, thanks for that tidbit. I am so so so happy this is finally happening. NN2S really was my first webcomic love.

Many thanks.
