329 strips. Isn't that kind of a ridiculous amount? I kinda like
this one. Got the idea after watching a ghost story. :)

With this one I wanted to place as much emphasis on movement and sound as
possible; I hope it worked to some extent.

Apologies to Joaquim for the (mis)use of his brilliant characters and comic
strip...

Thanks. I just realized how much I could get away with in a Nerd
Boy strip; almost anything can be true in NB world. So why shouldn't
his acquantancies take advantage of that?

Nice! :D Can I post this to the Nerd Boy website?

Some, but it was a bit hard to follow the movement when you moved the
background instead of Nerd Boy. At least for me...

No need to apologize when it's this good. :)

Not a problem.

I would have liked to have done that better, but I couldn't figure out any
more frames of animation for NerdBoy running...

As it is, the one where he was running with the combo hairdrier and
space/time correction device was mostly "borrowed" from the official strip
329...
