A stick-figure Shakespeare comic by Mya Lixian Gosling
Today's comic addresses an oldie, but a goodie.
Incidentally, on OKCupid one of the questions they ask to determine if you'll match with someone else or not is "In the line 'Wherefore art thou Romeo?,' what does 'wherefore' mean?" And the multiple choice options are "where", "why", and "who cares". And then you can rate how important this question is to you.
In other news, I'm still single.

Not gonna lie. Desdemona's handkerchief is still my favorite.
Happy Halloween, everyone!
The presidential debate between Shakespeare and Marlowe continues! I'm sure it will conclude in a rational and civilized manner.
Oh well.
Tune in next week for the final stretch of this interminable presidential campaign! And don't forget to grab your campaign swag at the Good Tickle Shoppe!
Let's sit down for the first (and, thankfully, only) presidential debate between William Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe!
I'm being a bit unfair to Marlowe here, as his authorship of the infamous Dutch Church Libel (a poem in rhymed iambic pentameter that threatened recent Protestant refugees from France and the Netherlands, and which may or may not have led to his untimely demise) was never confirmed. However, it contrasts very nicely with the passage in Sir Thomas More on refugees, which is largely agreed to have been written by Shakespeare. I'll let Sir Ian McKellen take it from here:
Tune in again on Thursday for the rest of the debate!
On a blatantly commercial note, I'm starting to sell out of various sizes of my never-to-be-reprinted Shakespeare/Burbage campaign t-shirt! If you want one, now is the time to get one!
