Guest comic by Zach Weiner
A few years back when I decided to start drawing Biff as a webcomic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal was one of my inspirations. At the time Zach was drawing the only other single panel comic that I knew about. (I’m sure there were others… the internet is a big place.) It felt good to know that there was someone else that had a successful comic using the same format as me. As a reward for my years of adoration I received this guest comic in my inbox today with but one line of text. “SINGLE PANEL 4 LYFE” Check out Zach’s work at http://smbc-comics.com/

Well, Chris? Are there worms in your brain? ARE YOU LYING TO US?!?
The Duck Has Spoken.
August 13th, 2008 at 12:45 am
Well actually worms in the brain isn’t so far from the truth. I mean it’s an infection in his jaw bone, the jaw isn’t so far from the brain and an infection of bacteria isn’t so far from worms.
August 13th, 2008 at 12:59 am
Wow, Biff suffers from psychosis. Somehow I feel liberated in knowing Im not the only one. Lol.
August 13th, 2008 at 1:19 am
And Zach continues the tradition of drawing baldies.
August 13th, 2008 at 3:10 am
I knew it couldn’t be something as normal as an infection eating away at the jawbone.
August 13th, 2008 at 3:56 am
Woa, Zach drawing a Biff comic… awesome!
Must be great to have such support from other artists

August 13th, 2008 at 6:37 am

August 13th, 2008 at 11:30 am

August 13th, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Hey, there’s someone with the same name as me!
I’d like to do a guest biff comic as well, but I really can’t draw…
At all.
And it’d be more like fanart then anything else.
August 13th, 2008 at 4:11 pm
Where’s the red dot?

August 13th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Sorry for the so many posts, butthe worms will probably be scared away from the toothache.
August 13th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
Brain! Not toothache! I meant brain!

August 13th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
@ Starseedjenny- You don’t have to go to rehab, apparantly after counting I read one more than you do
August 13th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Is it a bad thing if “SINGLE PANEL 4 LYFE” cracked me up hard?
You can really see Zach’s style as well. He’s not always true to the single panels, but when he is, they tend to surpass the multipanel ones.

August 13th, 2008 at 7:31 pm
heh, I read a lot of comics myself.
Zach is awesome because of this, and also because he linked on his site saying to wish you to get well soon!
This is awesome =D
August 13th, 2008 at 8:12 pm

August 13th, 2008 at 8:57 pm

August 13th, 2008 at 9:17 pm
No one’s mentioned Truck Bearing Kibble? Some of its stuff is PBF caliber.
August 13th, 2008 at 11:17 pm
@ Wizard: Make no mistake, my list is *YEARS* in the making. (Been reading webcomics regularly since about the Autumn of 1998.)
August 14th, 2008 at 10:28 am
“@ Starseedjenny- You don’t have to go to rehab, apparantly after counting I read one more than you do”
No need to go for cocaine and gambling if someone else is addicted to cocaine, gambling, AND deviant sex, right? ;p
August 14th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
I can’t believe no one mentioned savage chickens. Doesn’t anyone else read that?!
August 15th, 2008 at 7:51 pm
Comment 1: This is too weird. The day before this strip was posted I had a nightmare that little parasitic worms had infested by brain…it was a pretty realistic dream. I actually woke up in a cold sweat because the foot-long “alpha worm” suddenly came slithering out my right ear at a high speed, causing severe pain which lasted even after I woke up. Eughh…it was terrible. And graphic. 0_o
Comment 2: Wow. You guys read more comics than I’ve even heard of. I only read Biff, Bob and George, and lolcats/dogs/failblog.
…though I admit that I’m a total YouTube junkie. ^_^
August 18th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
damn what a coincidence I would be happen to reading SMBC right before I came to read this
August 19th, 2008 at 11:10 am
I’m surprised that Goats wasn’t mentioned, unless i passed over it…its been around for almost 11 years. F’ing hilarious.
my list:
SMBC
The Book of Biff
Cyanide and Happiness (the gateway comic for me, if you will)
Least I Could Do
Two Lumps
Goats
Captain Excelsior (on occasion)
