Curse of Apple, Part 2

More about the iPhone. No, I'm not one of the people who make fun of it because they're secretly jealous. I'm one of the people who tried it out and found it wanting in too many areas to justify the price.

Insert standard disclaimer here: Don't even think about trying the vaseline gag in real life. You'll probably kill the damn thing. The iPhone is neither waterproof nor Vaseline-proof.

Drawing Notes

This strip took more fiddling around than usual. Lots of photo reference, lots of shading experiments.

A few days ago, I was discussing with one of my three readers whether it's a good idea to add little additional jokes to the strip. My concern was that it may clutter up the panels to the detriment of the punch line. I decided to give it a try anyhow.

Please let me know what you think.
