You’ve arrived at Troubletown

This is the former blog of the former comic strip, Troubletown. Thanks for your interest. This blog is now inactive but as the one Swiss fan recently put it, “Troubletown can never die.” True dat. It will exist forever here on the internet. So take your time and enjoy the five-hundred plus posts––each more enjoyable than the last––from the last seven years that the comic strip was in existence. And don’t forget to try your luck at Offendo!

In short, we have about a hundred thousand dollars of repairs to do around here in order to get things up to a reasonable level of repair.
