jg_______ |\||\ _______Episode #626 posted Dec. 17, '05!
Characters based on Joaquim Gāndara's The Adventures of Nerd Boy, the greatest multi-panel, plot-based, [fairly] regularly posted ASCII comic out there! Some were created in Notepad, many with Markus Gebhard's excellent JavE utility.
By the by, be sure to check out the Nerd Boy: Fatboy Slim and S.S. ASCIIPrise animations! If you really want to a nerd fix... check out Nerd Boy: The Customizeable Card Game. Still can't get enough? Check out David Palmer's Nerd Boy-inspired strips!
I just noticed I didn't put sig's on any of these... note that almost all of the character likenesses and settings are Joaquim's (jg). My sig is the little "dew" in the corner.
