Nerd Tiles

This comic for the web developers/programmers generates the tiles that spell out four different nerd names: nerd, geek, dork, and dweeb. This could have been made simpler with just HTML and CSS but where is the fun in that. So it also includes JavaScript.
Mean Time Estimates

Time estimates are fiendishly difficult with complex projects and despite the depiction in this comic everyone is trying to do the best for their team and chances are they are all going to be wrong with their estimates. The comic shows the disparity of estimates given the combination of technical understanding of the effort as well as the chances of being yelled at by the client. It is a very arrangement made for comical effect.
Little Bo-Peep

Little Bo-Peep is a nursery rhyme published over 200 years ago. This comic modernizes it by roughly reproducing it by using *Nix commands.
WTF

Everyone knows what WTF stands for. In this nerdy comic for *Nix command line users it standards for Whereis Tsort Find. It shows the help information for each of the commands.
My API

Developers/programmers often have a reputation for being hard to deal with. This satire offers an possible explanation. It says: I'm not hard to deal with. I just haven't published my API yet.
Desktops

Web developers/programmers and designers need to work closely together if those duties are handled by different people. As a lead web developer I had ample opportunities of seeing the desktops of my fellow developers and the talented designers and how different their minds worked. This comic showcases the disparity in the laptop desktops. I created it with two little JavaScript-powered web pages, one for each desktop, to add emojis as the icons. I took the photos used as the backgrounds.
Old School Web Browsing

This comic shows the *Nix network commands that simulate what a web browser does when you visit a site.
Gettysburg Address

The Gettysburg Address by President Abraham Lincoln was a dedication of portions of the fields of Gettysburg to bury those that fell in the bloody fighting. This comic attempts to translate Licoln's eloquent words into JavaScript.
NO SHIFT

This comic shows a silly and convoluted JavaScript algorithm to use bit shift operators to spell “NO SHIFT”. Nerdy developers/programmers might enjoy it.
Algorithm: Fibonacci Sequence

The Fibonacci Sequence is the sum of the prior two values starting with zero and one. This is not a funny comic. It is meant for the nerdy developer/programmer that appreciates algorithms. It is implemented in JavaScript.
