Why a web comic?

I was asked recently why we decided to write a web comic? The answer is pretty simple... "Because they are fun". They let the writer tell a story using some fun pictures. We live in an age now where comics (both web and otherwise) are finally receiving the attention they deserve as sources of literature (both bad and good from people outside the comic culture) and this allows us to use an engaging medium to tell a story. Pythagorus Rex started out as a joke, status update on my Facebook page, it was a mention in much the same way as if he had been a children's book character and from there evolved into the comic now. Hypotenuse was born when we felt Pythagorus needed a companion and well the name for him was a no-brainer and of course if you are going to have a world saving Tyrannosaurus Rex then the only logical choice for a partner is a hippo. That makes sense right?

So please read what we put out here, and if you can do better then do it! And let us know because we will read it and in reading it hopefully our comic will get better. We will be posting another comic tomorrow and another on Friday so thanks for reading and if you feel inspired please leave a comment.

Stay Wicked,
