By the fourth or fifth year of
Robot Friday, a lot started to change - not just in how I approached the comic, but in my real life as well. And if I'm being honest, the changes I wanted to make in the comic were probably influenced by the shifts happening in my own life.
I had been drawing
Robot Friday for a while, and the gag-a-day format that I originally started with had lost its appeal pretty early on. By this point, I had already begun experimenting with short story arcs, usually stretching across two or three strips at a time, but mostly just to deliver a longer punchline than a single strip could handle.
