Hey guys. A few weeks ago I heard that Ricky was going to be taking a break from his comic for an indeterminate amount of time. I’m as sad to see it go as many of you are but I realized where he is/was coming from because producing that level of quality content can take it’s toll on artist. You get burned out. Coincidentally I had some time freed up and starting working on a couple of ‘sorry guyz ‘comics for fun, either for a book or future release. Once I found out the spot was open I offered to take it and here I am. Back in the dumm comics saddle with my awesome cartoonist buds! I hope you’ll enjoy my return and if not then…..
sorryguyz!
I was expecting Ricky’s l’il pup to pop up from grave and utter the famous catchphrase, being as it is Halloween and this was 1930′s Nightmare Theater’s spot …
Let the shit-storm begin.
Pretty good for a revival comic, but not very funny.
Well, burning out from producing a comic of a high quality level is not a danger for sorryGuys…
Farewell, RIcky, hope you come back.
Farewell, Mondays, you will suck again a tad more…
Here’s a high-quality comic to brighten up your Mondays! http://www.garfield.com
David, it’s up to you on how to proceed, but for future reference, it’s good to keep in mind IMDB’s guide on trolling
“What should I do (and not do) about trolls?
Remember, trolls feel rewarded by creating the biggest altercation possible. They want to get a reaction out of you. When you fight with a troll, he wins. When you reason with a troll, he wins. Any time that you give a troll attention, he gets exactly what he wants.
The best way to deal with trolls is to ignore them. When you ignore a troll, he doesn’t get the satisfaction of creating an escalated conflict.”
And please ensure that you have a sense of determining “is this a reasonable critique, or is simply an unhappy reader who isn’t articulating why he/she doesn’t like it, or is it a troll?” – It may be good to develop strategies for dealing with all three
But don’t you see, Maxwell? David needs Troller material some how. Of course, I’m pretty sure Jarman will give us the needed laughs every week.
Hmm.. what he could do is make the troller character recurring – Troller could be on a quest to annoy people – and David could try to show various characters reacting in different ways
You realize you’re talking about a comic whose main gimmick is “trolling” its readers? I miss the days when trolling was a bad thing. Now it’s something to do for fun, or anyone who thinks differently from you.
Trolling was never a bad thing, as far as I’m concerned. Sometimes an online community needs some wolfs to eat the rabbits to keep order and the stupid at bay. Of course, you can’t have too many wolfs or they’re all gonna starve. :)
Then again, I’m not a troll, just a critic. A hard-ass critic. I hate seeing mediocrity on a constant basis from professional cartoonists like Kyle on art that is OBVIOUSLY BAD, yet no one calls him out on it. The he censors me for not saying that he;s awesome. What a doofus.
Nitpicky: Did it really get censored? All I saw was your posted repeated like four times, except the fourth added an extra message to him
Nitpicky, I doubt very much he’s ever censored you.
He has! For trying to help a young artist figure out what tangents are, but using his work as an example. I’m not trolling! I’m stating the facts!
You might wanna go back and re-check – Your reply was repeated multiple times – the final reply had an added message from you
Seriously? I thought he was going to refrain from posting all of those. Oh well, my point still stands.
On this site, when one posts a comment, AFAIK it appears instantly. The moderator would have to remove the comment himself/herself
Welcome back!
“…but I realized where he is/was coming from because producing that level of quality content can take it’s toll on artist. ”
Heh. No, but seriously.
(I’m actually looking forward to a bit of Sorry Guyz).
God. Damn. It.
Welcome back! Gentlemen — start your funny!
Owl is watching you.
Welcome back! I’ve been looking forward to this!
this comic should just had someone dumping Ricky’s corpse in the same hole the rest of the dead comics go and this thing pop out before they notice any disturbance. oh and what’s up with Wicked wasting time urinating on that gravestone and not killing off those owls!
Big fan of SorryGuyz! looking forward to seeing more!
Cool beans! love the sorry guys comics, though as much as i love you, first it was big pants mouse, now nightmare theature, when are you going to replace one of the rubbish comics like that Raz crap, then it would of been a week long of awesome.
I’d say “no apologies” but that just doesn’t seem right for this comic. But anyhow, love it!
good lord, i’ve missed sorry guyz!
I’m so glad I don’t read these comment pages very often. while everyone else was having bitch fits I was just enjoying the awesome comics that came out of it.
The trolls are David :x
Ahaha, david, stop posting nice comments under fake names. Most of those people don’t even post here, and the post times are too close to each other. It’s either you, or some other hack at Dumm.
Uh oh, the jizz troll is back for action! Oh my!
Welcome back, David. You have some pretty big shoes to fill –and you know what they say about big feet ;)
I FOR ONE, AM STOKED.

Welcome back, David!
Stop faking comments, David.
Dude, give it a rest.
How can you tell when a comment is faked?
The replies are too close to each other, and most are by people who don’t comment here.
Well i was afraid this was going to happen, but anyways, welcome, i’m gonna miss kimbo D;
Fuck yeah, Troller’s back!
Anyone want some popcorn?
thank goodness its not “analog age” take sorry guys any day over that fiasco, i cold watch lifetime if i wanted that kind of stimulation! Welcome back fish dude Sorry Guys you were missed greatly, i often think back to your last, fair-well comic, quite good,

Great to see the return of the dolphin!
Happy to see you back again David!
Fuck YES! This the kind of Dumm that Dumm Comics needs right now. I will miss Ricky, highly. But OH man I can’t wait for the butthurt assholes that show up every time a Sorry Guys comic rolls around, which is half the entertainment. I’m a big fan of the art and style of this comic. WELCOME BACK!
my literal response when i saw sorry guyz was back:
“OH MY GOD…ARE YOU SERIOUS?!! OH MY GOD!!!!!”
this can be taken as a good response. i love your comics and art style, and im really glad your back on dumm, david!
welcome back, mang!! love your work, keep it up. :)
rickys a loser and quit the comic because his girlfriend dumped him. true story.
