    OH! I’d never noticed the copyright info before. Thanks for pointing it out. Can’t wait till it changes in January.

    So, for about a month I can totally steal this comic and save it on my PC and the lawyers can’t do a damn thing about it……woohoo!!

    Nothing says credibility like a dressing gown and cravat.

    Well Hugh, nice try, but it’ll still say 2010 as a copyright.

    but insulting people is so much fun, especially if they get as upset as I do when someone insults me

    Why are you ranting about copyright? You are supposed to be busy trying to kidnap Dale Arden for purposes of “forced marriage” (since that’s as close as you can get to saying what you really want in a comic strip). That’s what Ming the Merciless does!

    Wait … you’re NOT Ming the Merciless? You sure look like him. Are you SURE you’re not Ming the Merciless? Do you have a ray-gun? Do you have a rocket ship? I know you have a rocket hat around the house somewhere….

    P.S. Well, yes, I can hardly wait to bask in the glory of a 2011 copyright date … but I’ll try to be patient….

    Wow, I never noticed that before. Naturally, I am now tempted to write a letter to Scott Meyer every time I see a copyright date on his comic that does not match the current year. It never would have occurred to me before. Thanks!

    Does anyone ever write him to compliment him for getting the year right? Anyone? You should all be ashamed, Here is poor Scott living the life of a comic strip author. Never getting to see daylight(seriously he is very pale in this strip) he simply has to guess at what year it is and he usually gets it right. Thanks Scott I appreciate your triumphs and laugh at your failures.
