Characters: Danny Wilcox, Joe Rosenthal, Joyce Brown, Mr. Brown, Mrs. Brown, Sal Walters, Sarah Clinton
Location: Indiana University
Ahahaha more jokes about how Indiana sucks, I am a riot.
(Though the idea of Union Mills having a Starbucks is kind of funny.)
You’ll notice that the dialog is my usual based-on-my-handwriting font. Â Originally, these pages were hand-markered and hand-dialogued, but they looked pretty terrible and were illegible, and so for the Roomies! book collections I mostly recolored them on the computer and replaced my actual handwriting with the font.
Yes, this could have looked worse.

Sal…smiling…cannot…
Ahem, excuse me, you need to go outside, what with the sparks flying out of your head. Short circuits are a serious fire hazard.
I’ll go get a fire extinguisher.
It’s so weird seeing these to actually together as a couple.
When did Sal get so… Happy?
Well the death of her…Err I mean no idea…<__>
I started off on this ‘universe’ with Dumbing Of Age, so I’m used to Sal as a laconic, motorcycle-riding, tattooed kicker of asses. Then I hear about these other comic ‘verses, decide to check it out, and run smack into a Sal that smiles. And goes ‘Heeeeeeee!’
My god. This Sal goes ‘Heeeeeee!’
NOTHING I EVER KNEW WILL EVER BE THE SAME
The thought of union mills having a starbucks is funny. It’d be like Knox having an Apple store XD
Knox College? I went there.
Knox, Indiana.
I think this is before Sal got sucked into SEMME. Also before her parents were killed, I believe.
I miss Sal. Even angsty Sal.
It is. I made a post explaining that in as wordy a way as possible further up the page.
DOWN the page, sorry.
I got seriously ninjaed.
No Sarah tag?
Ah, there we go.
Is anyone else having a hard time recognising Sal at first without her jacket?
Okay, so, for those of you wondering what’s going on with Sal–her traumatic origin story hasn’t happened yet. (I won’t say what that is for those new here, but I will say it involves her folks.) Later comics basically say that Sal was always like we’re seeing her here pre-breaking up with Danny and that’s what attracted him to her in the first place (though she did angst over other stuff she hid it well.)

Sorry your time in Indiana didn’t treat you well. I’ll admit some of my fellow Hoosiers are definitely not the brightest light bulbs in the hardware store.
Holy crap, that first panel joke is just. I can’t. It’s so Joe, and yet.
I know hoop’s not tagged but is it just me or does one of the guys in the College tour look like him?
You mean Shaggy?
…Bravo, Willis. Even your background characters are holdovers.

Are you gonna put a link to this site on your other sites, next to the others? I assume you just haven’t gotten around to it yet?
“Press-ons”?
*googles*
…some kind of false nail?
*Sigh* …Kids.
Hey, the art isn’t that bad here.
Well, okay, maybe it is. But at least everything is clean-looking, which is a step up from how your stuff looked at the very beginning, which we’ll see.
I like the art here: it’s Early Willis Style in its fully mature form, before all the drastic changes that led to Modern Willis Style. (My computer hates the old site, so I haven’t seen the transition period yet.)
Sarah isn’t tagged, so I know that girl (probably?) isn’t Sarah, but… Not gonna lie, I totally thought it was Sarah.
In my defense, she would totally be snarky about how much Indiana sucks. She really would.
OH WOW HELLO GRAVATAR.
You’re awfully convenient. (That is totally Sarah, dang it!)
That is Sarah, the tag’s was just missing. It’s there now.
Just watch, one page from now the tour guide thinks, regarding Joyce: “I pity the poor soul who’s stuck rooming with her.”
That sort of dramatic irony is how you know it’s her.
(I love actually having this stuff in print.)
Random female college student equals “college ho”. Stay classy, David Willis fifteen years ago, stay classy.
I think that’s more Joe being Joe than anything.
Plus this was made in 2001 so really it’s David Willis 11 years ago.
Welp, I’m fifteen years too late, but someone’s got to tell you:
The word plethora means “too many.”Joe is saying that there are too many breasts out there, like this is a bad thing. Oh, that wacky Joe.
Well, there’s only so much time in a day…
Available Boobs x Average Ogle Length = Required Boob Appreciation Time (RBAT)
When RBAT = >200 days, you’re in trouble!
(Or at least Joe is, I guess.)
…I know I’m late with this, but.
SAL!?
Hey, I got myself to read your older comics after all!!
