Every time I hear him interject comments like this I wonder what it would be like if he didn't do such a family friendly comic. I like Dog Eat Doug plenty, but what kind of comic would Brian do if he really let loose? I know, Brian’s hilarious.

The details are pretty simple, actually. Someone in charge of set decoration over at the Big Bang Theory contacted Th3rd World and asked if they had any comics or posters they could use for a particular episode. We said "yes," obviously, and sure enough you can spot mucho Th3rd World product in many of the shots in the comic book store. SuperFogeys is just one among many. Don't know if anyone who works on the show is actually a fan or not, but you never know--the comics are there now and good for readin'! At the time they asked us for it, we had no idea in what context the comics would be used. Not information they felt like giving us. It was a nice surprise to see them in the context of a comic book shop--which is not a place the SF books have ever actually been sold...yet. Sure thing, Tony.

Congrats Brock! Can you give us any details on how this came about. Considering Sheldon and "How I Met You Mother," I think it's more surprising that it took *so long* for a Sheldon book to appear, rather than that it appeared at all. That is too awesome.

If there's any HBO Soprano fans out there you may remember the opening show of the, I Believe it was 2002 or 2003 season, when the young guy (I don't know any of the characters because I never watched ths show) killed someone, went to his mother's and attached a $20 bill on the frig. This was at the end of the show and they did a close up focus on the bill for like two minutes. My cartoons were all around that $20 and right out there to see. The producers of this show said the character's mother was a big Reader's Digest fan and this was why they contaqcted me since I'm a Reader's Digest cartoonist The Sopranos show had contacted me to ask me to use my work. You're probably wondering how much I was paid for the use of my work. If you buy me a cup of coffee, I can tell you and then I will be able to say I made a cup of coffee from the use of my material on that show. Congrats.
