Happy 451st Birthday, Shakespeare!

It's Shakespeare's (possible, but conjecturally extrapolated) birthday! Let's take a moment to celebrate the works of one of the world's greatest and most sensationalist storytellers.

Part of the reason I enjoy Game of Thrones so much is that so much of its plot resembles a Shakespearean history play... but on steroids, with more magic and less complicated family trees. If you think Shakespeare is boring, just think of it as Game of Thrones: Elizabethan-Style. It's just as entertaining.

Happy Birthday, Shakespeare! 

Happy 450th Birthday, Shakespeare!

Today's comic is super-early, because I'm super-excited that it's Shakespeare's 450th birthday! Let's celebrate!

Let's give thanks to Shakespeare's plays being in the public domain and thus widely available for all of humanity to use, abuse, adapt, co-opt, explore, analyze, and generally perpetuate for eternity. Here's to another wonderful 450 years!
