One Hundred.

July 17, 2009

This may be the meta-est thing anyone has ever done.

But seriously, thank you SO MUCH, all of you.  Right now I estimate I have about 2000 fans, which is awesome for a comic not even a year old, and I’m going to be setting up the forum and an online store soon.

But it could be better! Don’t forget to keep telling everyone you think would enjoy Out at Home about the site.  With your help, we can realy make something awesome here.

Thanks again!

    My mind = Blown.

  3. Aroinak says:

    Wooooo! Way to go, dude! I look forward to the next 100 as well! After that… well.. perhaps. We’ll see how it goes…….

  4. Sara says:

    Yay Alex! I got this link from a friend who was all “Alex Wendzel has a webcomic now” and I was all excited to see it. I love how your cartoons have evolved since high school ;-) . Yay for 100 comics!

    PS–my favorites are the ones involving the grocery store where we both worked and, of course, the one featuring Mojo. I wonder if he knows he’s in there…

    This makes me feel more sane than usual. At least the voices in MY head never come out and assume bodies.

    Dude whats with the late update?I spent 3 hours on this site waiting for the update!!!!!!!!But its pretty cool! either Alex has finally gone insane or we’ve just broken the fourth wall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. Andrew says:

    This is weirder than that time I divided by zero.

    But seriously, congratulations on making it to 100 comics.

    Penny…
    You know – I’ve found OaH by accident, read a bit and was generally not impressed. It didn’t have a familiar theme (it’s neither fantasy, sci-fi, gaming…), it was mostly shallow and mildly funny. Most of the time it even lacked a consistent plot. There was really no good reason for me to keep reading… except Penny. She has red hair, green eyes and freckles. That’s perfection incarnate. What’s more – she seems to be the only person with enough wits and character to do what she wishes as Kate merely uses common sense at times. Also – you draw her really well… as most stuff, actually.
    While I know that smart characters can ruin the plot… I just hope we’ll see at least one such new permanent addition to the cast. However – as long as you draw Penny, I’ll read OaH.

    Also – “Music Band” rules. I listen to it all the time ;P. Hope we’ll see such a T-shirt…

    Two things:
    1) WOOT!!!!!!
    2) that 100 thing in the corner makes me think of that “sunshine song”

  10. Rachel says:

    Ha ha I love the two last panels, I look forward to much more comics from you! :) Keep up the great work.

  11. James says:

    #1: Congratulations on 100!

    #2: Promethea by Alan Moore is slightly more self-aware and meta-fiction than this. But not much. Not much.

  12. Thomas says:

    @Last Panel: Insert Tiny Tim’s “Wonderful Time” song.

    Great comic, keeper er going!

  13. Hichcoot says:

    Congratulations dude! i also made comics and i know how important could it be to make it to 100 strips, so congratulations and good luck with the next 100!

  14. WendyW says:

    Awesome.

    Congratulations on getting to 100. :)

    This reminds me of the instructions I made a friend so she could use an email account I set up for her, only yours is better.

    I did it in the form of a simple comic with one of my characters giving instructions as if it was an educational film. It started breaking down towards the end when the cartoon version of myself came in and told her to stop being rude. Then we argued a lot and the character mocked me for it. She won the argument.

  15. Phailer says:

    Congrats on 100. Keep up the amazing work!

  16. Luke says:

  26. Anonymous says:

  27. Jay says:

    Congrats on your 100th!

  28. Trypno says:

    You can’t have a 100th comic without a known regular commentor such as myself posting!

    Congrats on your 100th comic! Can’t believe it’s already been 100 strips

  29. Vayne says:

    I feel your pain, man. Arguing with yourself in your head is not fun, and somehow losing to yourself is no fun either.

    …Yes, I’m aware that the author could just be joking, and in no way have the same problem as me. No, I don’t care if these random people know who I am. No I’m not insecure, using my real name would just be a needless security risk.

    …No, you’re the idiot! Yes, I know that you’re me too, but I’m the one in control right now dammit! You know what, I don’t even care anymore! For once in my damn life could you just give me a moment of peace?!

    NO! SCREW YOU! JUST SHUT UP! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

    The neighbours would be rolling their eyes about now.
    ‘What’s that noise?’ ‘Nothing honey, just Alex imploding again’ ^^

  31. JET73L says:

    This is hilarious! Probably the most meta thing I’ve ever seen, and I’m a fan of Deadpool and former reader of 0/1. Congratulations and compliments, good sir!
