I stopped overtly numbering the comics a while ago. The comic number is included in the image file name, for the curious. In this case, this page is number 274. You're actually the first person (that I can recall) even asking about this.
I stopped doing those after a while because I realized that some of the 'chapters' were going to end up being really short (i.e. only two or three pages), and so it seemed to make more sense to just drop 'em a page at a time.
"Um, sir?"
"Yes?"
"Your logic engine just called."
"Oh? What did it have to say."
"It said that you can take your number 42 trope and shove it."
"Really. It said that?"
"Yes, sir."
"Hm."
"It also said that it has the answer to the question you posed to it."
"And…?"
"Well, sir, it's a bit embarrassing."
"Just spit it out."
"Very well, sir. It said, and I quote, 'I have the answer, and you're not gonna get it. Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah.'"
"Hm. Embarrassing, indeed. I believe it's time we ended the experiment."
"Very well, sir. I'll see to it."
we lol'd—> Finally, after painfully long moments =D
also, what happened to the numbers? why aren't the comics numbered anymore?
We?

the first one where you never had a number, last comment. :p
Hehe. I'll let you know when we hit 300—or you can just check the image file name.
Remember when Jim was still doing Chapters?? :p
that was before even i started reading in late '08
. ill need to go back and read through them all again at some point.
Always a good thing.

Afterwards, you should try and segment it into chapters though to make browsing easier.
I'll certainly consider it.
some awesome screenshots as usual over the last few comics jim. and i gotta say its good to see you keeping the schedule back on track for now.
Thanks. I've actually been amazingly productive in just about every area of my life this year. 2011's off to a great start.
That it is Jim
I'm making you New Years Resolution to make it to 300 comics sticking to the normal schedule 
Though, if I had to hazard a guess, at the current pacing, I'm pretty sure comic 300 is going to be EPIC
It's always a possibility.
Whatever happened to the guy that got sp-lasered?
shrug Who knows?
"...And it knows the answer. 42"

The plot thickens. It also seems that our fire puns have been snuffed out.
In case you hadn't noticed, we haven't seen Barcode in a while. At this point, those puns would be woefully out of place.
Yeah, that sequence never really got resolved. What exactly happened to Reclaimer back there.
You know my stock answer to questions like this by now.
Wonderful comic, nice reference with the rollover text. Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Wow. Where did you get these shots? I believe it's on Spire but I'm not certain. . .
Yup, very top of the Spire, just beneath the canopy.
