2011-02-21: Earnestness (hastily called meeting)

This comic is in the following storylines:

• Variations
  A long-running series, maybe the crux of the site. Reader submits a suggestion, and I draw three comics based on that suggestion. Originally all three had to start the same, but it evolved.
• The Earnestness Pill
  Dr Quickly tests out a new drug on an entire class of students at an arts college.

This comic includes the contribution:

• Keith suggested: Dr. Quickly invents an earnestness pill

Noel: Aren't you... worried?

Dr Quickly: Other than drugging some of your students without their consent... did we do anything wrong?
Noel: Uh...

Dr Quickly: If that's the story he's after, we're fine. I can handle that.
Noel: Seriously?

Dr Quickly: You'll feel better after you've eaten some lunch.
Noel: Yeah, that's true.
