Today's guest artist is the cataclysmic catalytic cataleptic known only as K. Many thanks to him for delivering another fine strip to us.

The inspiration for this strip was a movie that came out on DVD just a few months ago that used the Virtual Reality thing as a plot twist. What the fuck? Didn't we get over that in the late 90's? The Matrix, Existenz, The Thirteenth Floor, The Truman Show, Vanilla Sky, Dark City: All of them asked the questions, Is this too good to be true? Is it even real? At the end of the Clinton administration, the questions seemed a little more topical than they do now.
