      DON’T READ THE COMMENTS ON YOUR FIRST TIME THROUGH.

      THIS IS YOUR FIRST AND ONLY WARNING.

      THE COMMENTS SECTIONS ARE ALL SPOILER HELL.

      On a side note. It is highly recommended that you read ‘Roomies’ and ‘It’s Walky’ (the earlier works of David Willis) before you read ‘Shortpacked’, and then read ‘Dumbing of Age’ after the rest.

      ‘Roomies’, ‘It’s Walky’, and ‘Dumbing of Age’ are accessible from this comic’s side bar.

    Hi there. And welcome to strip #1 for Shortpacked!

    If you’re archive bingeing I have two pieces of advice.

    1. Don’t waste your time reading the comments. Unless you like thoughts and opinions from fans. it will slow you down extremely much.

    2. If you haven’t read Roomies! or and It’s Walky!, you are not at the beginning and will be missing out on a few characters/in-jokes. Plus some plots may not make any sense.

    Congrats I just added 2 extra days to your bingeing.

      David Willis is single-handily responsible for me failing my finals. Him and a short attention span.

      Well, if I didn’t read the comments, I wouldn’t have known to look for the other comics.

        True, but now you should stop reading the comments as they are full of spoilers these days.

      Yep. When I first started I was reading shortpacked. I didn’t realize what I was missing until I looked to my right and saw the other three comics. XD If only David put a warning at the top of the first Shortpacked comic so that new readers wouldn’t make this mistake.

    Ok, I have to ask … who is that working the register?

      “Checkout Mom”. She’s a mom who runs the register.

      There’s also a good chance Mike banged her, most likely for a nickle.

    These take-over-the-world guys always have the worst names. :D

      Well, you can’t take over the world with a name like Bob.

      “Kneel before Bob!”
      “Take these treacherous fools to the Bob-Dome!”
      “Soon my BobDroids will ignite the atmosphere for the glory of Bob!”

    o.O Now that I read back and think about this, does anyone think that Jason’s Dad and Galasso might have some kind of connection? They seem similar… if he were a mental patient….

    *chose to put this here to avoid… actually I have no idea why I put this here*

    Just finished reading the first 3… wow, just wow. He didn’t have comments back then, looks like there was a forum, but its not around anymore. I can only imagine what the discussions must have been like given the rollercoaster ride he put his readers through. Awesome writing, could be a movie plot, more original and better than quite a few i’ve seen.

    You can meet the family at the reception. But first we have to stop at Jerk In The Box.
