[Technical note: experimenting with new comic software. Thank you for your patience.]

Yes, it’s a comma joke. Man cannot live by religious satire alone, you know. He needs a bit of punctuation-based humour every now and again.

J&M is taking the first of two one-week breaks next week. Do not fret. During my absence I’ll be automatically posting “resurrections” – old strips dug up, dusted down, cosmetically enhanced, and uploaded into the cloud.

Normal service will be resumed thereafter.

The first of the scheduled resurrections.

A resurrection of a relatively recent strip – but one of my favourites of the past couple of years. Normal service will be resumed next week, plus the opportunity to buy a “BURKAS GIVE ME THE HORN” t-shirt with which to adorn your torso.

Happy New Year to all J&M readers!
