[ ED. NOTE: One cartoon turned into five, then ten, then one hundred, and then a few hundred. Two great pals launched something just to entertain themselves and their friends, and the LRT juggernaut grew from there.

But it’s time to move on. Angela bought a tract of ranch land in Alberta and is going to establish a wildlife preserve for mythical beasts. I accepted a new job, and will be moving to Tibet to be the curator of the Dali Lama’s personal comic book collection. Dara the Intern graduated university and is off to explore the world. Wernher is retiring, and Rosalita took a position as a cleaning lady at the JLA headquarters. Jeff and Gary have reconciled their differences and have leased an apartment in Brooklyn which is actually smaller than their last pod. Mike from Accounting took our “swear jar” to a Coinstar machine several weeks ago and hasn’t been heard from since. And MegaHyperGlobalCorp has agreed to drop their pending lawsuit against us, provided we never make fun of them again.

So you see, things change. And today marks the final installment of Low Resolution Theatre.

We have had a felonious amount of fun doing this comic over the last 13 months, and we love all of you very much (yes, all 9000 Tumblr followers and the additional hundreds of RSS subscribers and casual readers). Thank you all for your support and readership, and we hope that if you liked Low Resolution Theatre, that you’ll seek out and follow our individual projects as well.

What? No, I am not. Angela is just eating onions in the breakroom again, that’s all.

Deepest love and dinosaur squeezes,

Tony & Angela ]

[ ED. NOTE: It’s Mike’s birthday, so I invited him to take the day off of his busy Dinobrain recording schedule and come over for a “boys only” day of playing video games and reading comics. Yet despite the big NO GIRLS ALLOWED sign I posted on the door, I’m not sure Angela got the hint.

Happy Birthday anyway, Mike. ]

[ ED NOTE: Angela has been begging me to let the staff take some time off, and I finally gave in. Probably because she painted the walls blue, hung a paper sun, and covered the entire floor with an inch of sand.

It’s going to take Rosalita and Wernher a while to get this place cleaned up and back to normal, so we’re closing the LRT studios and taking some time off for summer vacation. There is fun and sun to be had outdoors.

We’ll be back to regular cartooning on Monday 8/9! ]

Unfortunately, young Peter Parker’s appalling lack of table manners tended to carry over into his Spider-Man persona.

[ ED. NOTE: It is our dear friend Sarah’s birthday, so we invited her over to the LRT offices to hang out with us today.

Angela said they were just going to play arts and crafts while I worked. I figured she just meant the usual messy paper-mâché, but I just noticed that all off the Cokes and Mentos have disappeared from the break room.

This will not end well… ]

Geoffrey had never called an escort service before, and was disappointed when they misunderstood his request for a ‘wanton woman’…

Emmett had finally reached his limit with the sneaky mouse that kept eating all of his Cheetos®.

He knew the mouse would be back that night, and this time, Emmett would be prepared.

[ ED. NOTE: Angela and Rosalita got a little, um, over-enthused about the World Cup final this weekend. Unfortunately for them, I’m making both the winner and the loser clean up after themselves. ]

The Nigiri Warriors and the Futomaki Rollers are among the most notorious of Tokyo’s “umami gangs”, and often find themselves in violent turf battles.

“Dammit Bernie, have you been playing with that Embiggenator Ray again? I’ve told you how much I hate when you bring work home with you. If you’re so smart, why don’t you use it on our bank account? Or better yet, drop your pants and use—”

“OKAY, okay, Francine, point taken. Jeez.”

Dr. Katzenberg had recommended that going to the carnival might lift Patrick’s spirits, but unfortunately he took her a bit too literally and only compounded his depression.

[ ED. NOTE: I woke up this morning wondering if I’d reminded Angela that today is an American holiday and that she didn’t have to come into work.

Nah, I’m sure she remembers… ]

[ ED. NOTE: Angela suggested we take a daytrip to Niagara Falls in honour of Canada Day tomorrow, which I think is a holiday that she just made up to get out of working today.

Also, does this barrel make me look fat? Or doomed? ]
