Yeah, those of you who read the previous comic early saw this in Edmund’s journal entry. Well, here it is in front of you!
Hey, here’s a real thanks to all the people who keep coming here, and those who support Edmund’s Quest by acquiring things from the Store (or donating) and helping to keep this little site running.
Guess who got stuff for free, though. The contest contestants! Honorable Mentions are below, and look out this weekend for when ALL entries will be posted!
REMINDER: The quest continues Tuesday, July 20th!
After a year and four months, many times pulling near-all-nighters to update on time, this month’s schedule is proving too busy, so I’ll have to take a break for two weeks (equaling 3 comic updates total). Edmund Finney’s quest will resume as usual Tuesday, July 20th. But fear not! You will still have comics!
Ever take a look at The Rejection Collection? Those are (mostly) comics of mine rejected by various publishers (mostly MAD Magazine). I made a comic a few years ago called Belfry Meadows for possible newspaper syndication that was rejected, and I’ll run those comics in this blog area during this break, so you’ll still have comickery to see! Here’s a teaser image:
And you can use this time to make your entry(ies) for the NEW CONTEST! Multiple entries are allowed!
As I was uploading this comic, it struck me that the punchline might have been done before, as it seems pretty obvious. So, I googled it, unfortunately, and found that not only are there cartoons that make this same joke, but there was a movie with the title “Disorganized Crime.” Oh well, too late. You win some, and then others you don’t win, as they say. Or something like that.
Pretty soon:

Character drawings available in the EQComics store!
UPDATE: To explain the blogspot site address, yes I did sign up for it a long time ago, and I drew this comic up yesterday, posted it, and went to modify the site to something funny, but couldn’t sign in. It’s saying it’s sending the password reset to my gmail account, but I don’t think I signed up with a gmail account. So, out of luck on this. I might change the blogspot URL on the sign soon so come back!
Original Post:
I thought would take this opportunity to tell you about a recurring nightmare I had as a kid: Elmo from Sesame Street.
Here’s the setup: I’m cleaning a room overflowing with toys. One by one I take the toys off the messy pile and put them away. Soon I am at the last toy, at the bottom of the pile. It’s Elmo, face down on the floor. For some reason I feel anxious. I don’t want to pick him up. But I have to, because if i don’t, the room isn’t clean. So I grab him and slowly turn him around to face me… and his wide-open eyes stare right into mine. I can’t move, and I can’t scream. Then I wake up.
That’s it. I don’t know if that’s scarier, or the dream where the aliens who say “Yip yip yip.. uh huh, uh huh” appear in my room while I sleep. In any case, Sesame Street did a lot of damage to my psychosis. That is all.
