My wife hates this one (Mountain Dew is apparently not good for me).  I love it.

I want to say thanks to everyone for their support.  For a week now we’ve had one comic up and a surprising amount of traffic and positive feedback.  I hope we can continue to please and improve.

We should be getting a link up on here, but in the meantime you can become a fan of This Help Desk on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/thishelpdesk – please become a fan, we’ll be adding more ‘behind the scenes’ stuff there as time goes on.

You can also follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/thishelpdesk.  I think that’s enough self promotion for now.

I hope the coming year treats you well.

And so begins the comic creation of Jake and Jason, hereby known as “This Help Desk”.  Jason is the artist.  Jake is the writer – or perhaps I prefer the dubious title of Idea Man.

To say I am excited would be nothing short of heresy.  This is the kind of project I have wanted to undertake for the better part of my adult life, and to be working with Jason, a person whose talent I have admired since before I was an adult is more than just the icing on the cake – it’s the cake itself.

I want this to be a positive and fun place, and hope that it will draw like minded people to it.

With our ambitions happily unchecked, we begin what I hope to be a great chapter in my own life, Jason’s life, as well as the lives of many yet-undiscovered friends.

Thank you for checking out This Help Desk, the creative result of Jake Hendriksen and Jason Rushton (me).  This project has been a while in the making.  We had gone over several ideas on how we might share our talents and ideas with those that may share similar interests, and this web-comic has become that realization.

It is good to be working on this with my good friend.  I am entertained by his writing style and am excited to be able to create a visual representation of his wit.

Please enjoy.
