   I love Mike’s expressions in this comic. I feel like I can relate to him, too… I had a similar experience in high school with an online publisher. It turns out they sold your own published work back to you for $100 per book. Hopefully, Mike has a better experience than I had.

     I had this happen once as well. Thankfully, I had other, legit publications to help salvage my pride. :/

     Don’t give him any money, Mike!!

     Yep, mine only cost me $45 though. One or two of the other poems were worth reading… the rest… ehhh….

   Also, I bet he’d totally use green stuff instead of Sculpey! xD

   I know the feeling… Just like being offered a great-paying job only to find out that it is a network marketing venture.

   @Spicytacoman: I’m going to say “arch-nemeses”, but I have not sold insurance for more than 15 years now, so we should be okay

   Yeah, I am currently out of work and I am amazed at the number of scammers out there this time around. I get a call every week from another one that wants me to get in on a multi-level marketing insurance deal.

   someone should remind Mike that you can’t be “discovered” until you actually have a demonstrable product or talent…
