A place for all things geek... ONCE UPON A GEEK is a blog that focuses on a variety of geeky topics, including: comic books, Doctor Who, Star Wars (classic and legacy characters), role-playing, 80’s TV shows, and science fiction in general. However, any topic is really fair game. Don't forget to share your thoughts by adding comments!
By day, The Irredeemable Shag plays the part of a wealthy industrialist, playboy, and philanthropist. By night, he is a frightening creature that strikes terror into the hearts of criminals!
... or ...
maybe The Irredeemable Shag managed a comic book store for four years, and a movie theater megaplex for three years. Nowadays he's just a really vocal geek on THE UNIQUE GEEK, a semi-regular on the VIEWS FROM THE LONGBOX podcast, and runs the ONCE UPON A GEEK and FIRESTORM FAN blogs.
You decide...Here is yesterday’s PVP online strip. I can totally imagine this happening with me and my wife!
PVP strip from January 12, 2009
However, I imagine my wife’s reaction would be dramatically different than Jade’s was. Check out PVP online today for the follow-up.
Special thanks to Scott Kurtz for granting me permission to reprint this strip. You can read this strip and more at PVP online.

Yeah, but todays continued strip would NOT happen with your wife.
That’s freakin’ hilarious! I could so see that happening (although, like you – not the follow-up) with my wife as well. Thanks for sharing!
Would it make a difference if it came with a life-sized David Tennant?
That was a pretty good one. You gotta love PVP.
Happens to me all the time. Here’s a typical weekday afternoon conversation in my house…
Honey
Yes dear?
There’s a parcel here for you – from . *Another* parcel.
Oh. . Darling I absolutely *cannot* remember ordering that Buffy Essence of Willow Statue, or that Iron Man life size bust, or that (continues for some minutes) limited edition collectible. And, sadly, I can’t return it (the return postage is too expensive)…
Is it wrong of me to ‘forget’ what I’ve ordered?
Sadly, it’s not just the little things – you should have seen the trouble I got into when the three foot high Galactus landed on the doorstep!)
I swear we geeks get more than our fair share of troubles…
