that made me laugh! what a good start to a new web comic!
Thanks!
Love it
I have to admit that I am sometimes hesitant to give out scissors to some of our patrons. Good luck with the new strip.
Thanks 🙂
I’m so glad that there is still a library comic out there. I loved Unshelved and read it every day before I went to work.
Hi, I’m a Canadian School Librarian and I loved Unshelved/Overdue and am now looking forward to your new comic strip! Good Luck!
Great!
Funny!!! I am a retired librarian who found your old strip – Unshelved- when I was working at an all-boys college prep high school. While the setting was different, the themes often were the same which is why they were often so funny. Good luck with your new strip, I look forward to enjoying it and your creativity.
Thank you 🙂
Just clicked the ad in Unshelved for this comic.
All the joy of Unshelved in a new comic. Oh boy!!!

Reminds me conceptually of this comic https://crisiscomic.wordpress.com/covid-19-comics/assorted-sundry/#TV. I can only laugh, shake my head, then sigh.
I have read a few more of your comics and look forward to more another day.
